ProtonVPN IP cycler

This is a little script you can run that will automatically disconnect and reconnect from ProtonVPN and log everything (including IP) to a log file.

#!/bin/bash

LOGFILE="protonspray.log"

while true; do
    {
        TIMESTAMP=$(date +"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
        
        echo "[$TIMESTAMP] Disconnecting from ProtonVPN"
        protonvpn-cli d
        
        echo "[$TIMESTAMP] Sleeping for 7 seconds"
        sleep 7
        
        echo "[$TIMESTAMP] Reconnecting to VPN"
        protonvpn-cli c -r

        echo "Sleeping a few seconds"
        sleep 3
        
        echo "[$TIMESTAMP] Checking my IP address!"
        IP=$(curl -s https://ifconfig.me)
        echo "[$TIMESTAMP] Current IP: $IP"
        
    } >> "$LOGFILE" 2>&1
    
    sleep 180
done
