  Here simple workaround method for you

  using System.Net;

  private bool IsInternetConnectionAvailable()

  {

  try

  {

  WebRequest WebReq = WebRequest.Create("http://www.google.com/");

  WebResponse WebRes = WebReq.GetResponse();

  WebRes.Close();

  return true;

  }

  catch

  {

  return false;

  }

  }

  A small modification to the above code to make it perfect, [The code changed in BOLD font]

  private bool IsInternetConnectionAvailable()

  {

      try

      {

         WebRequest WebReq = WebRequest.Create("http://www.google.com/");

         WebResponse WebRes = WebReq.GetResponse();
         if(HttpStatusCode.OK == WebRes.StatusCode)

         {

             WebRes.Close();

             return true;            

         }

         else

         {

             WebRes.Close();

             return false;

         }

      catch

      {

         return false;

      }

  }

   

  Another Work-around,

   

  private bool IsInternetConnectionAvailable()

  {

      try

      {

         System.Net.IPHostEntry objIPHost = System.Net.Dns.GetHostByName("http://www.google.com/");

          return true;
      catch

      {

         return false;

      }

  }

  
  HTH,

  If you simply want status regarding the addresses assigned to your NICs or if the network cable is plugged in, such events are exposed in the System.Net.NetworkInformation namespace
