Title: Best way to check true internet availability (ping)
Post by: Broken Stylus on April 21, 2024, 05:48:27 AM
There is a thread (https://forum.unity.com/threads/how-to-check-internet-connection-in-an-app.384541/) that deals with the topic of verifying the internet connection, notably on a handheld device. The posters came up with a variety of rather long winded scripts.

Is there any simpler way with the actual Playmaker material to run a ping on a known public or private address, or even check for some file content and get a return on this, with the least amount of bandwidth usage.
Would using the "web request" action on the Ecosystem be a reliable and fast solution?

What are the URL addresses you might recommend using for this?
