+===== Notes about Connectivity Watchdog Script =====
+This script is a custom one. Please note that there is also a setting in the //Basic/[[:network|Network]]// menu of Tomato's web interface called "//Check Connections Every//". This feature performs similar functions, with some differences. It is not recommended to use both this watchdog script and the //Check Connections Every //function at the same time. The two functions may interfere with each other, with unknown results.
