Answer 1

On top of Emil's awsome answer I'd like to add one more method, for checking if you actually have Internet access as you could have data set to off on your phone.

public static boolean hasInternetAccess(Context c){
    TelephonyManager tm = (TelephonyManager) c.getSystemService(Context.TELEPHONY_SERVICE);
    if(isConnected(c) && tm.getDataState() == TelephonyManager.DATA_CONNECTED)
       return true;
    else
        return false;
}

Note that this is only for checking if theres a cellular data connection and will return false if you have WiFi connected, as the cellular data is off when WiFi is connected.
