Question

My application needs to send some packets every 30 minutes, but I don’t want to send via charged services like GPRS/EDGE/… I would like to send only if a WiFi / ActiveSync is UP.

How do I find out if:

• There is currently Wifi used as network
• There is currently GPRS/EDGE/UMTS… used as network
• There is currently Active Sync used

Ok, found that working :

void TEST()
{
  CONNMGR_CONNECTION_DETAILED_STATUS *StatusBuffer;
  CONNMGR_CONNECTION_DETAILED_STATUS *StatusBufferTemp;
  DWORD               pcbBufferSize = 0;

  ConnMgrQueryDetailedStatus(NULL, &pcbBufferSize);
  StatusBuffer = (CONNMGR_CONNECTION_DETAILED_STATUS *)new BYTE[pcbBufferSize];
  ConnMgrQueryDetailedStatus(StatusBuffer, &pcbBufferSize);
  StatusBufferTemp = StatusBuffer;

  while(StatusBufferTemp != NULL)
  {
    if(StatusBufferTemp->dwConnectionStatus == CONNMGR_STATUS_CONNECTED)
    {
      if(StatusBufferTemp->dwType == CM_CONNTYPE_NIC)
      {
        switch(StatusBufferTemp->dwSubtype)

          MessageBox(0,TEXT(""),_T("CM_CONNSUBTYPE_NIC_WIFI"),MB_OK);
          break;

          case CM_CONNSUBTYPE_NIC_ETHERNET :

        }
      }

      if(StatusBufferTemp->dwType == CM_CONNTYPE_CELLULAR)

      }

      if(StatusBufferTemp->dwType == CM_CONNTYPE_PROXY)

        }
      }

      if(StatusBufferTemp->dwType == CM_CONNTYPE_PC)
      {
        switch(StatusBufferTemp->dwSubtype)

    }
    StatusBufferTemp = StatusBufferTemp->pNext;
  }

  delete StatusBuffer;
