I too follow the same procedure with this variation:
if the socket connects I close the socket and return true, while if I get a 103
error I return false.
And the socket is an object dragged in the window.
But I was thinking whether it would not be better pinging a site.
Does anybody have the necessary code to ping a site?
Thanks,
