Nice property. I wrote an application a while back to test/measure network 
speed. You select a local directory, a server location, a file size and number 
of transfers and the application creates a “dummy” file of the select size and 
copies it back and forth the selected number of times and reports the 
individual transfer times and overall average. Works great to diagnose slow 
connections from specific workstations.
It would be nice to add the connection type and maybe the capability to switch 
back and forth between wired and wireless to compare relative times.
I need to find the utility and do some upgrades.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Tip of the Day: Detecting the Type of Network Connection

Friday, June 17, 2022

Tip of the Day: Detecting the Type of Network Connection
Product.......: R:BASE X.5 and R:BASE X.5 Enterprise (Version 10.5)
Build.........: 10.5.4.20616 or higher
Sections......: Commands
Keywords......: GETPROPERTY, Connection Type, Network, Adapter

Did you know that new GETPROPERTY command parameters were implemented to detect 
the network connection type?

NETWORKCONNECTIONTYPE and NETWORKCONNECTIONTYPEEX are new parameters for the 
GETPROPERTY command.

NetworkConnectionType returns network connection type, with possible values 
being: Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Unknown.

NetworkConnectionTypeEx is an expanded
implementation of the property which considers the network adapter's metrics 
and returns the network connection type and name of the adapter, with possible 
return values being: Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth.

GETPROPERTY APPLICATION NetworkConnectionTypeEx vConType SHOW VAR vConType 
vConType = Ethernet, ASIX AX88179 USB 3.0 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter 

The ability to detect the network connection type is an ideal feature, 
especially for reliable connections to the database.

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
