you can detect internet down / up by looking red (POE-Out) LED at RBmAP2nD

You should not use numerical ids in scripts. Never ever! For this case (RB mAP2nD) replace “2” with

[ find where leds=led3 ]

.

This works for every device with configurable leds… A lot devices have these.

You changed just one case, the scripts still have numeric ids.
