static var internetReachability : NetworkReachability
Description
Returns the type of Internet reachability currently possible on the device.
This property is mostly useful on handhelds to distinguish fast and cheap WiFi connection from carrier networking.
Note: Do not use this property to determine the actual connectivity. E.g. the device can be connected to a hot spot, but not have the actual route to the network. Non-handhelds are considered to always be capable of NetworkReachability.ReachableViaLocalAreaNetwork.
