How to check if local system is connected to a network and identify the type of network connection

Posted by Karthick P.K on July 26, 2010

#include <windows.h> 
#include <iostream> 
using namespace std;
#pragma comment(lib, "Sensapi.lib")
#include <Sensapi.h>

void main()
{
    
bool a; 
LPDWORD lpdwFlags;
lpdwFlags = new DWORD;
a=IsNetworkAlive( lpdwFlags);

        if(GetLastError()!=0)
        {
            cout<<"IsNetworkAlive failed:%d"<<GetLastError();
        }
        else if(GetLastError()==0 & (!a) )
        {
            cout<<"Network is not connected";
        }
        else if(GetLastError()==0 & (a))
        {
            cout<<"Network is connected.Type: "<< *lpdwFlags;  //1=Lan and 2=WAN
        }

}
