Answer 1

You can do it like this

uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"

uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"

 private boolean checkInternet(Context context) {
    // get Connectivity Manager object to check connection
    ConnectivityManager connec
            =(ConnectivityManager)context.getSystemService(context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);

    // Check for network connections
    if ( connec.getNetworkInfo(0).getState() ==
            android.net.NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTED ||
            connec.getNetworkInfo(0).getState() ==
                    android.net.NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTING ||
            connec.getNetworkInfo(1).getState() ==
                    android.net.NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTING ||
            connec.getNetworkInfo(1).getState() == android.net.NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTED ) {
        Toast.makeText(context, " Connected ", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        return true;
    }else if (
            connec.getNetworkInfo(0).getState() ==
                    android.net.NetworkInfo.State.DISCONNECTED ||
                    connec.getNetworkInfo(1).getState() ==
                            android.net.NetworkInfo.State.DISCONNECTED  ) {
        Toast.makeText(context, " Not Connected ", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
        return false;
    }
    return false;
}
