Can I mail you a test program which will tell you if you're connected to the internet or not? that's all it does, no funny business.

you need to be running through a proxy and/or a firewall, btw.

cheers

It shows LAN/green when the ethernet lead is unplugged as well as when it's connected.

Unhappy

I'm using home LAN (private IP), though also with VPN running (public IP), through a ZoneAlarm Pro firewall and it says....

"Modem"

Shows Green "LAN" even if I pull the LAN cable, I assume because the NIC is still live.

However, shows Red ".//." if I disable the "Local Area Connection".

Still shows Red ".//." if I restart the "Local Area Connection" and stays red no matter how many times I click "Connection" button. However, as I soon as I use the LAN in any way, clicking the "Connection" button brings it back to Green "LAN".

Cheers

Works through Firewall NG also. Detects the LAN correctly
