I need to detect when wifi is turned on/off. For that purpose I'm using Connectivity by James Montemagno, but the problem is that I don't get an ConnectivityChanged event if the Phone have access to mobile network and I turn on/off the wifi.
Here is the mapping of the event:
CrossConnectivity.Current.ConnectivityChanged += (sender, args) =>
{
WiFiConnected = CrossConnectivity.Current.ConnectionTypes.Contains(ConnectionType.WiFi);
};
So can I detect Connectivity Changed on Wifi? I would like to do it in Xamarin Forms code so I won't have to implement a solution for each platform.
Here What Your Looking For
CrossConnectivity.Current.ConnectivityChanged += (sender, args) =>
{
if (args.IsConnected.ToString().Equals("False"))
{
if (CrossConnectivity.Current.ConnectionTypes.Contains(ConnectionType.WiFi))
{
// WE LOST AN CONNECTION BUT WIFI IS STILL ON
}
}
else
{
if (CrossConnectivity.Current.ConnectionTypes.Contains(ConnectionType.WiFi))
{
// WIFI WAS TURN ON AND WE HAVE A CONNECTION
}
else
{
// WE HAVE A CONNECTION BUT NOT WIFI
}
}
};
