Sorry not farooq, Nido…. Nido’s code is correct and accurate whereas farooq’s code is defective…

I think farooq’s method is easy and accurate, because that code doesnt get the accurate result. It says connected to internet even if im not connected to it.

Farooq at the starting I was using the same technique as you describe in your post.
I am sharing a simple line which will give you 100% correct out put is you connect to net or not.
public static bool NetStatus()
{
return System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface.GetIsNetworkAvailable();
}
it is just one line function and it working great, I also like your post. Good work and keep posting.

I was using webrequest/webresponse to check the internet connection but.. this way is much better, it is exactly what i was looking for.
Thank you!
