Always network down notification? #11

Open HawkingJan opened 8 years ago

HawkingJan commented 8 years ago

Hi, I just started using alarmpi and it looks as it is a good starting point for my goals. I've some beginners questions. I hope it is OK that I open several issues but so it is more ordered.

The alarmpi.txt "I could not talk to the network test host. I believe the network is down." is promted every time, although the network is clearly running (it gets the weather and bbc news). Where is the check if the network is down actually being performed (I found some def _testnet(self) routine in alarmenv.py but I don't see the connection to the [netdown] section in alam.config that triggers the message. Or is this just a bad example of the generals txt to speech routine?

I'm experiencing the same problem (I disabled the check in alarm.config so it doesn't show up anymore).
