Depending on what kind of network you have, this may or may not be of any
use to you (IIRC it always returns true on a > LAN, regardless of whether
there is a gateway open to the internet.)

I'd say it would be an extremely rare situation when that did work. :-)

Probably better to use IcmpSendEcho() and ping a known server, you'll find
plenty examples of this with a quick Google search.

Sounds like a much better idea than mine.
