Hi there If you are trying to attach to a web service and you own that service why not add a ping method to the service? That way you test reachability, if that succeeds call your ping method and verify the successful call.
You should keep in mind that users pay for data and only handshake a small amount of data and do it infrequently.

When using the Reachability classes to determine an internet connection, the phone sometimes connects to the BTFON Wifi connection and therefore claims that a valid connection exists. BTFON is the open-wifi thing that you have to sign up to use so it allows a connection but not to your destination unless you've signed up to their service. Is there any way to determine what the NetworkReachability classes have connected to verify it's responded to by the real destination? -- View this message in context: http://monotouch.2284126.n4.nabble.com/Web-services-vs-other-tp3997150p3998564.html Sent from the MonoTouch mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ MonoTouch mailing list MonoTouch@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monotouch _______________________________________________ MonoTouch mailing list MonoTouch@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/monotouch
