I'm not aware of any way to check for a connection. The only possible trick is to try to connect to existing and stable domain (e.g. www.google.com) using gethostbyname.

InternetGetConnectedStateEx. But I'm not sure how to disconnect nor if this function is trustworthy. Perhaps RAS API + ManOfSteel's method is better than WinInet but I don't remember anything of RAS...

Use the WinInet API. It has a function to check if internet connection is availabe or not as well as other functions to deal with "cyber" interactivities. O_o
