Know your internet is actually working.
NetCheck sits quietly in your menu bar as a single dot — green when you have internet, grey when you don't. Unlike the Wi-Fi indicator, it confirms real internet access with a lightweight network probe, and shows you exactly where a connection is failing when it does (here's why that happens).
Collapse to just the connection dot and status with one click — expand back anytime. NetCheck remembers which view you left it in.
See your connection quality at a glance, right from the menu bar.
When you're offline, see exactly where it's failing — your Mac, your router, or your ISP.
Get notified the moment your internet drops — and again when it restores.
Know at a glance when you're connected through a VPN.
See your ISP name at a glance, right alongside your connection status.
Available in 34 languages — NetCheck automatically matches your Mac's system language, including full right-to-left support for Arabic and Hebrew.
Set how often NetCheck probes your connection — anywhere from 5 seconds to 5 minutes.
No dock icon. No Cmd+Tab entry. Just a single dot in your menu bar.
Start automatically when you log in to your Mac, so you're always covered.
For people whose internet has to actually work.
