Taking the extra step would be to ping the server.

I would suggest that one must do more than just log,

The first step I would take in a situation like this is to call a
couple of other stations to see if they received the test.
Note this as part of your report. Also at note that your IP connection
is currently working.
When these things happen to me and for no apparent reason, I also
include the date of the last received test as well as when/if I
received the next test.
If you only missed one and received it the week before and the week
after and found nothing else wrong or made no changes nor fixed
anything then that's also notable for the report.

I think Clay is saying that you might not be able to pinpoint the
exact cause, but if you show a good effort at trying to figure it out
then you would be on pretty firm ground with the Feds.
