My network is working perfectly but the plugin says not. I think is the test address The line: address = ("google-public-dns-a.google.com", 53) On i3pystatus.core.util.internet Running it on linux mint 18.3 i3wm

One server cannot possibly fit all network configurations. You can try changing it to your ISP DNS server.

I am for example using OpenDNS server:

server = ("208.67.222.222", 53) # opendns.com primary DNS server
status = Status(standalone=True, interval=1, internet_check=server)
