LAN connection test
-
What is the best and/or the most reliable method of testing of a LAN is connected to the Internet. The Wininet APIs make it easy to tell if the user is connected to a dialup modem, and a LAN, but there is no direct way to tell if the LAN is connected to the Internet. Sending an IMCP packet is not a possibility, other than that I am open to your suggestions. Thanks

Light a man on fire, and he will be warm for the rest of his life! -
