George:

Here is one more way to check...

LOCAL lnDst, lnHop, lnRTT

*

DECLARE INTEGER GetRTTAndHopCount IN Iphlpapi;

INTEGER DestIpAddress, ;

LONG @HopCount, ;

INTEGER MaxHops, ;

LONG @RTT

*

DECLARE INTEGER inet_addr IN ws2_32 STRING cp

*

lnDst = inet_addr("216.109.117.108") && Yahoo IP returns

lnHop = 0

lnRTT = 0

*

IF GetRTTAndHopCount(lnDst, @lnHop, 50, @lnRTT) = 0

*You are NOT currently connected to the internet

CLEAR DLLS GetRTTAndHopCount, inet_addr

return .f.

ELSE

*You are connected to the internet

CLEAR DLLS GetRTTAndHopCount, inet_addr

return .t.

ENDIF
