Howdy ho all!

1st.) How can I find out if an internetconnection is available and online from within my app?

2nd.) How can I find out its IP? (Gateway?)

3rd.) If the connection is dropped, how can I find it out?

Thanks for the ppl who can help.

Can't help with question 2, but questions 1 and 3 can be done like so:

Code: Select all

; Requires Win 98 or higher (or Win 95 with IE4 or higher).
If InternetGetConnectedState_(0,0)=0
  Debug "Offline"
Else
  Debug "Online"
EndIf

Yep, thats right but with this short code you get all IPs of your system. But its very importend for me only to have the INet Gateway.
