ConnectivityManager conMgr = (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService (Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);

// ARE WE CONNECTED TO THE NET

if (conMgr.getActiveNetworkInfo() != null

&& conMgr.getActiveNetworkInfo().isAvailable()

&& conMgr.getActiveNetworkInfo().isConnected()) {

return true;

} else {

Log.v(TAG, "Internet Connection Not Present");

return false;

}

}

Thanks for the code - does this check whether the internet is actually working, for instance if the user is logged into a public wifi and they haven't yet authenticated. In that case - all requests return the wifi login page.

Hmm, haven't tested it, but I don't think that it works on public authention-required networks, considering that conMgr.getActiveNetworkInfo().isConnected() should return true as soon as you're connected to the network - without you having never visited the authentication page through the web.
This is indeed a problem if you directly try to connect to a external DB etc..

Hmm, what happens if you're connected to the internet through the Mobile Network? Then you technically aren't connected to a network (router?)? - won't this be a problem aswell?

Note :just in case some ppl might not know .if you are testing on emulator connect and disconnect internet using " F8 " and not by disconnecting your actual internet .

for e.q.
There is a wireless router but it does not have an access internet. If I connect to that router this code still returns true, however it should not return true,there is no internet connectivity.
right?
