Bash script for checking if Mullvad connection is active; if not - downs and ups WireGuard NIC. If connection is down, a log is written in ~/z-checkMullvad.log
Script is short and self-explanatory. It uses Mullvad's API (see API) requests, "Connected" or "JSON". Currently, "Connected" method is used. Method "JSON" is in the script, just change order to make it active instead. Or do whatever you want with script, I'm not the boss of you ;)
