Network check...

[ATARI_LIVE]

Need the codes...

I am looking for to check the network is up or down and/or check ping which quickly to check instead of waiting.

Because I do not want my code to pause of running while network is re-trying due the network is down.

thanks!

try:
    import httplib
except:
    import http.client as httplib

def have_internet():
    conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("www.google.com", timeout=5)
    try:
        conn.request("HEAD", "/")
        conn.close()
        print("actived")
        return True
    except:
        conn.close()
        print("inactived")
        return False

have_internet()
