check whether cable is connected in LAN Port

[sainumpudi]

Hi,

I want to check out some how whether cable is connected in LAN port of my computer or Notebook.

Even if cable is not connected to router or wall outlet for internet.

Note: Want to check whether cable is plugged into my LAN/Ethernet port of my computer.

Thanks,

sainumpudi.

If the cable is not connected to anything on the other hand, it is not possible.

EDIT:

global const $NETWORK_ALIVE_LAN = 0x1
global const $NETWORK_ALIVE_WAN = 0x2

func _WinAPI_IsNetworkAlive()
    
    local $ret = DllCall('sensapi.dll', 'int', 'IsNetworkAlive', 'int*', 0)
    
    if (@error) or ($ret[0] = 0) then
        return 0
    endif
    return $ret[1]
endfunc; _WinAPI_IsNetworkAlive

if BitAND(_WinAPI_IsNetworkAlive(), $NETWORK_ALIVE_LAN) = $NETWORK_ALIVE_LAN then
    ConsoleWrite('LAN connected')
else
    ConsoleWrite('LAN not connected')
endif
