Check INTENT internet connection

Viewed 73991

Is there an Android Intent ACTION_XXX that notifies me when an Internet Connection is available?

I want to instantiate a BroadcastReceiver that notifies my application when a user enables Internet Connection (by wifi, by GSM, etc.)

Could anyone help me?

From Android 7++, @fedj's answer will not work but you can register the broadcast receiver programmatically.

Apps targeting Android 7.0 (API level 24) and higher do not receive CONNECTIVITY_ACTION broadcasts if they declare the broadcast receiver in their manifest. Apps will still receive CONNECTIVITY_ACTION broadcasts if they register their BroadcastReceiver with Context.registerReceiver() and that context is still valid.

**You can put this line of code on Helper Methods and call it when you want to check internet connection **

public static class InternetState {
    static ConnectivityManager cm;

    static public boolean isConnected(Context context) {
        try {
            cm = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
        } catch (NullPointerException e) {

        }

        NetworkInfo activeNetwork = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
        boolean isConnected = activeNetwork != null && activeNetwork.isConnectedOrConnecting();
        return isConnected;
    }
}
