In my app i am trying to get network status using NetworkReachability. I tried it when i am under wifi or 3g connection and it works perfectly.
The problem is when i am connected to a personal hotspot/tethering(tested with iPhone to iPhone, Android to iPhone and routers with sim) i get always 3g connection and not wifi.Tested with ios10. Is there any way without using private framework to control if i am under tethering connection or hotspot?
You have check Reachability for internet, Using following link to download Reachability demo project from Apple:
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/samplecode/Reachability/Introduction/Intro.html
,and add both .h and .m files to your project.
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(handleNetworkChange:) name:kReachabilityChangedNotification object:nil];
reachability = [Reachability reachabilityForInternetConnection];
[reachability startNotifier];
- (void) handleNetworkChange:(NSNotification *)notice
{
NetworkStatus remoteHostStatus = [reachability currentReachabilityStatus];
if(remoteHostStatus == NotReachable) {NSLog(@"no");}
else if (remoteHostStatus == ReachableViaWiFi) {NSLog(@"wifi"); }
else if (remoteHostStatus == ReachableViaWWAN) {NSLog(@"cell"); }
}
In GitHub, AFNetworking library provide the check the network Reachability status. Using the Network Reachability Manager object file to detect the status of internet reachability status.
Shared Network Reachability
[[AFNetworkReachabilityManager sharedManager] setReachabilityStatusChangeBlock:^(AFNetworkReachabilityStatus status) {
NSLog(@"Reachability: %@", AFStringFromNetworkReachabilityStatus(status));
}];
[[AFNetworkReachabilityManager sharedManager] startMonitoring];
