My internet connection seems to drop out a lot at certain times of the day. I've been looking for a way to capture how often this happens. I'm aware of tools but they are either not free or dont really capture the type of data im after e.g. outages vs uptime over a week so.

I've noticed that Windows 10 displays "No Internet, secured" when there is no connection. Is it possible to get windows to log this somwhere so i can then workout Internet up vs down time.

The event viewer will register a log every time the internet connects and disconnects. You can access this log in the Event Viewer by navigating to -

Applications And Services Logs / Microsoft / Windows / UniversalTelemetryClient

and then look for every instance of Event 55. In the General tab it will show "Is the Internet available: false" every time the internet drops.
