Question

To check network connection in my iPhone app, I’m using this code:

_hostReachable = [[Reachability reachabilityWithHostName: @"https://abc1.abc.com"] retain];
[_hostReachable startNotifier];

And check status

NetworkStatus status = [_hostReachable currentReachabilityStatus];

I did test with “https://mail.google.com” or “http://translate.google.com” and the status always return NotReachable with that subdomain names, but with “http://google.com” it’s ok.

Dose Reachability not work with sub domain name ? Please help me, thanks !

Answer 1

Just tested it with my app – host reachable with subdomains seems to be working.

I noticed that you are including the protocols http:// and https://. Perhaps that is the problem. Try just using abc1.abc.com.
