Hi Ted, Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it. I have a couple of issues:
1) I used an HttpConnection to open a connection. And by calling the method .getConnectionWithTimeout (host, timeout) I can get the connection to timeout. HOWEVER, I performed a test where I open the connection WITH internet FIRST, then I disable my internet, and run it AGAIN. This results in the connection taking forever to break out. EVENTUALLY it does break out (after about 3 or 4 minutes). This isn't exactly ideal. I feel like it resets to default or the connection maintains some sort of persistent state. I have no idea why it doesn't "refresh" itself and time out like it's supposed to. 2) In another part of my code, I try to post some data to a server using HttpClient.execute(HttpPost) [in the org.apache.http.client.HttpClient package]. I have no idea how to time this out. There doesn't seem to be any methods associated with httpclient to set a timeout characteristic. Any help would be appreciated. I've also been looking into datastateintentreceiver, except there is very little documentation on it and I think that might be useful. Thanks in advanced.
