Check if Offline Mode

[jgallen23]

is there any way in code to check if the device is in offline mode?

I don't know if it will be possible but you can look the libconic API. Libconic is the library that handles the Internet connectivity in the n800.

It could be useful in what you need.
Also there is Python bindings.

now that I have my n800... can't you parse the output of ifconfig?

[jgallen23]

yeah, thats one way to do it. But I don't think ifconfig is installed by default, is it?

[robmiller]

I think it is, but for non-root user the path needs to be specified - /sbin/ifconfig
