-  We have three methods that we can use:
+   We first try to find out if ppp interface is active. If it is, we assume
+   that we're online but don't have a permanent connection (this is false if a
+   networked machine uses modem to connect to somewhere else, but we can't do
+   anything in this case anyhow).
+
+   If no ppp interface is detected, we check for eth interface. If it is
+   found, we check that we can, indeed, connect to an Internet host. The logic
+   here is that connection check should be fast enough in this case and we
+   don't want to give false positives in a (common) case of a machine on a LAN
+   which is not connected to the outside.
+
+   If we didn't find either ppp or eth interfaces, we stop here and decide
+   that we're connected. However, if couldn't check for this, we try to ping a
+   remote host just in case.

 
 

-  1. test via /sbin/ifconfig and grep for "sl", "ppp", "pl"
-     --> should be fast enough for regular polling
-  2. test if we can reach the well known beacon host
-     --> too slow for polling
-  3. check /proc/net/dev on linux??
-     This method should be preferred, if possible. Need to do more
-     testing.
+   NB1: Checking for the interface presence can be done in 2 ways
+        a) reading /proc/net/dev under Linux
+        b) spawning ifconfig under any OS

 
 

+        The first method is faster but only works under Linux.
+
+   NB2: pinging, actually, means that we first try to connect "manually" to
+        a port on remove machine and if it fails, we run ping.
