I've not tried this myself, but if you look in the ActiveX class "Microsoft
Internet Controls" you see InternetExplorer; this has a property "Offline?"
that returns a boolean. Since I'm not using DUN I can't verify whether or
not it has the functionality it implies!
A less elegant indirect alternative would be to have a VI running
continuously that periodically tries to ping a known address- perhaps the
gateway you use with your ISP.
