This is fine, but it returns critical if even one of the hosts is down.
Pretty much pointless for using multiple hosts for internet detection.  I
want it to return critical only if all hosts are down/unresponsive/slow.
How would I do this?

Also I'm not sure what the point of using the time command is either.

Thanks

Miles
