Hello

we are using Application.internetReachability class to detect if user is connected via WiFi or local network, but it always returns false even if connected to WiFi. and always returning true even if not connected to local area network. its working properly on android and iPhone but seems to be not working on wp8.

any help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi

For now there’s no support for network classes on Windows phone as well as on windows store for Network classes.

Workaround would be to write you own dll in which will interact with windows api to give you if network is reachable or not.
