How to detect loss of internet reachability when wifi source loses connection?

Question

I am trying hard to get the authentic internet connectivity status. I have used Apple\'s Reachability but it\'s only giving me the status of wifi connectivity i.e. not covering

Answer 1

According to Reachability it checks for not only wifi but also for WWAN/3G and no internet access, why do you think it does not check other than WIFI?

 typedef enum {

    NotReachable = 0,

    ReachableViaWiFi,

    ReachableViaWWAN

} NetworkStatus;

if you want to check the reachability to a particular host then you could set the host yourself like this

Reachability *hostReach = [Reachability reachabilityWithHostName: @"www.google.com"];

NetworkStatus netStatus = [hostReach currentReachabilityStatus];

 switch (netStatus)
    {
        case ReachableViaWWAN:
        {
            NSLog(@"WWAN/3G");
            break;
        }
        case ReachableViaWiFi:
        {
            NSLog(@"WIFI");
            break;
        }
        case NotReachable:
        { 
            NSLog(@"NO Internet");
            break;
        }
}
