How can I programmatically retrieve the current connection type (eg. LAN or Direct connection)?
InternetGetConnectedState() isn't very reliable.
For instance, I'm connected to a wireless network, but ConTypeRet is 18, which is INTERNET_CONNECTION_LAN & INTERNET_RAS_INSTALLED. Isn't there any way to make sure that ConTypeRet is either INTERNET_CONNECTION_LAN or INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM?
