Request you guys to put other code which check internet with in 10 seconds. This code takes 30 seconds to check internet. Request you guys to put other code which check internet with in 10 seconds.

The iPhone does the translation for you. If you are doing a large transfer of data you will want to use the reachability class to see if you are connected to WIFI first. For pulling up webpages, or connecting to a REST service, you will be fine. check out <a href="http://allseeing-i.com/ASIHTTPRequest/" rel="nofollow">ASIHTTPRequest</a> for a good wrapper class for making data requests.

Josh, your comments are spot-on. i’ve jut tried your snippet with the 3.1.3 Snow Leopard SDk and it works fine.

i’m new to this aspect of app coding and have a simple question. my app needs to communicate over the Net using NSURL objects. does this work over the Carrier Data Network?

Is there a way to determine which wifi network I'm connected to? We have both a public and private wifi. However, the webservice is only available via the private wifi. The reachability code will tell me when there's no connectivity, but I have to rely on the webservice call to fail in order to determine that they are not connected to the right network.

This is not correct. Apple updated the Reachability class to 2.0 (you're referencing 1.5) which has been corrected. Looking for information about the current version is difficult. In the new version, there is no +sharedReachability method. Why is this so popular? This is not correct. Apple updated the Reachability class to 2.0 (you’re referencing 1.5) which has been corrected.
