in2nix4life,
Script is running fine now. I do see a few problem.

1. Why am i not able to delete the monitor.log file
2. Though i set the ping for 5 sec but it is continuously running till now. Why is that?
3. Can you please explain the later part
awk '/packets/{if($4 ~ 0) print $0)' >> /tmp/monitor.log;echo >> /tmp/monitor.log;done
