Hi Rodd,

If you couldn't resolve problem with httpping, you may take a look at Ping utility with timeout parameter added File #9661.

>I'm using the httpping method of wwIPStuff's wwHTTP class to check to see if I have an internet connection present or not.

>I'm guessing that the 2 seconds has more to do with if an internet connection IS present and how long the method will wait for a response from the server.

>I'm wondering if there is a way to keep httpping from hanging me for 30 seconds if no internet connection is found. I'd be just as happy if the 2 seconds applied in that case as well.
