Subject: [PATCH] Fix clear and network check for curl pipe execution

- Guard `clear` with terminal check so it doesn't fail when TERM is
  unset (common in curl pipe context)
- Use curl instead of ping for network check (ICMP often blocked in LXC)
- Fix ((tries++)) from 0 evaluating as falsy under set -e
