networking - Test Internet Connection Android

Question

Wish I could do a test to verify internet connection, I don't want check network state, because it only detects if I have activated internet on my device, y yo quiero revisar si es posible conectarse a internet. Something like a ping.

Answer 1

Try following:

public boolean checkOnlineState() {
    ConnectivityManager CManager =
        (ConnectivityManager) getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
    NetworkInfo NInfo = CManager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
    if (NInfo != null && NInfo.isConnectedOrConnecting()) {
        return true;
    }
    return false;
}

dont forget the access

 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
