Not exactly what you ask for but this is how I do it.
I'm not trying to be specific about the speed in kbs of the connection
because it can change a lot due to the user moving from cell to cell.
So I simply detect what kind of mobile connection we are on and send a
slow connection warning only when connected via EDGE or GPRS.
Here is the code that returns true if the connection is a slow one :
public boolean internetConnectionIsLowSpeed() {
ConnectivityManager connec = (ConnectivityManager)
getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
if (connec.getActiveNetworkInfo()==null) return(false);
if
(connec.getActiveNetworkInfo().getType()==ConnectivityManager.TYPE_WIFI)
{
return(false);
}
if
(connec.getActiveNetworkInfo().getType()==ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE)
{
switch(connec.getActiveNetworkInfo().getSubtype()) {
case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_GPRS :
return(true);
case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_EDGE :
return(true);
case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_UMTS :
return(false);
case TelephonyManager.NETWORK_TYPE_UNKNOWN :
return(false);
default : return(false);
}
}
return(false);
}
