Hello Roger,
If I understand your request correctly, you meant to get notified of the
network connection change event without manually polling the network status.
" NetworkChange.N etworkAvailabil ityChanged" should be a useful event for
this scenario. It¡¯s triggered when the availability of the network changes.
The network is available when at least one network interface is marked "up"
and is not a tunnel or loopback interface.

Hello,
We have an application that use data from our sql server.
We access this information trough TableAdapters, direct queries and
datacontextS (LINQ).
All these methods use the same CONNECTION STRING located on the
application
settings.
We don't explicitly open or close connections on these objects as we let
the
connection pool do the work.
The problem is that we have a lot of portable computers and external
workers, and they lost connection when they unplug their computers or the
remote connection fails.
Is there any way to control FROM A CENTRAL POINT (event) when the
connection
is lost?
I was thinking if the connection pool have such an event, or similar.
I don't want to use a timer that "pings" the server: this seems to me kind
of ugly.
Thanks,
