I don't think so. The message Saul Comyn is getting is "This computer's
Internet connection appears to be offline.", which is the message
corresponding to kCFNetworkStatusDown. So unless they use the same message
for an indeterminate status (which I don't think they do, but I don't know
how to check), this is not the problem.
But anyway, we might want to try downloading for unknown status, because it
doesn't say it won't work. So check for kCFNetworkStatusDown instead. Even
though that does not seem to be the problem here.

We're only checking for the kCFNetworkStatusUp (or whatever the
constant is), and that could be a problem, I guess. Maybe it returns
an indeterminate status or something? If it's indeterminate, we could
try reaching the specific host via SC, then use diagnostics if that
fails.
I'm unable to use my ISP's dialup system, so I can't try it myself. I
do know that the SCNetworkCheckReachabilityByName function works with
a modem, since I was able to test it a few years ago. The
CFNetDiagnosticsCopyNetworkStatusPassively worked last I tried when
disconnecting from Airport or Ethernet, though, so I've no idea why it
would fail with modem. Very strange.
