How can I check for an active Internet connection on iOS or macOS?

Important: This check should always be performed asynchronously. The majority of answers below are synchronous so be careful otherwise you'll freeze up your app.

Swift

Install via CocoaPods or Carthage: https://github.com/ashleymills/Reachability.swift Test reachability via closures let reachability = Reachability()! reachability.whenReachable = { reachability in if reachability.connection == .wifi { print("Reachable via WiFi") } else { print("Reachable via Cellular") } } reachability.whenUnreachable = { _ in print("Not reachable") } do { try reachability.startNotifier() } catch { print("Unable to start notifier") }

Objective-C

Add SystemConfiguration framework to the project but don't worry about including it anywhere Add Tony Million's version of Reachability.h and Reachability.m to the project (found here: https://github.com/tonymillion/Reachability) Update the interface section #import "Reachability.h" // Add this to the interface in the .m file of your view controller @interface MyViewController () { Reachability *internetReachableFoo; } @end Then implement this method in the .m file of your view controller which you can call // Checks if we have an internet connection or not - (void)testInternetConnection { internetReachableFoo = [Reachability reachabilityWithHostname:@"www.google.com"]; // Internet is reachable internetReachableFoo.reachableBlock = ^(Reachability*reach) { // Update the UI on the main thread dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ NSLog(@"Yayyy, we have the interwebs!"); }); }; // Internet is not reachable internetReachableFoo.unreachableBlock = ^(Reachability*reach) { // Update the UI on the main thread dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{ NSLog(@"Someone broke the internet :("); }); }; [internetReachableFoo startNotifier]; }

Important Note: The Reachability class is one of the most used classes in projects so you might run into naming conflicts with other projects. If this happens, you'll have to rename one of the pairs of Reachability.h and Reachability.m files to something else to resolve the issue.

Note: The domain you use doesn't matter. It's just testing for a gateway to any domain.

I like to keep things simple. The way I do this is:

//Class.h
#import "Reachability.h"
#import <SystemConfiguration/SystemConfiguration.h>

- (BOOL)connected;

//Class.m
- (BOOL)connected
{
    Reachability *reachability = [Reachability reachabilityForInternetConnection];
    NetworkStatus networkStatus = [reachability currentReachabilityStatus];
    return networkStatus != NotReachable;
}

Then, I use this whenever I want to see if I have a connection:

if (![self connected]) {
    // Not connected
} else {
    // Connected. Do some Internet stuff
}

This method doesn't wait for changed network statuses in order to do stuff. It just tests the status when you ask it to.

---

Using Apple's Reachability code, I created a function that'll check this correctly without you having to include any classes.

Include the SystemConfiguration.framework in your project.

Make some imports:

#import <sys/socket.h>
#import <netinet/in.h>
#import <SystemConfiguration/SystemConfiguration.h>

Now just call this function:

/*
Connectivity testing code pulled from Apple's Reachability Example: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/samplecode/Reachability
 */
+(BOOL)hasConnectivity {
    struct sockaddr_in zeroAddress;
    bzero(&zeroAddress, sizeof(zeroAddress));
    zeroAddress.sin_len = sizeof(zeroAddress);
    zeroAddress.sin_family = AF_INET;

    SCNetworkReachabilityRef reachability = SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(kCFAllocatorDefault, (const struct sockaddr*)&zeroAddress);
    if (reachability != NULL) {
        //NetworkStatus retVal = NotReachable;
        SCNetworkReachabilityFlags flags;
        if (SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(reachability, &flags)) {
            if ((flags & kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsReachable) == 0)
            {
                // If target host is not reachable
                return NO;
            }

            if ((flags & kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsConnectionRequired) == 0)
            {
                // If target host is reachable and no connection is required
                //  then we'll assume (for now) that your on Wi-Fi
                return YES;
            }


            if ((((flags & kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsConnectionOnDemand ) != 0) ||
                 (flags & kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsConnectionOnTraffic) != 0))
            {
                // ... and the connection is on-demand (or on-traffic) if the
                //     calling application is using the CFSocketStream or higher APIs.

                if ((flags & kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsInterventionRequired) == 0)
                {
                    // ... and no [user] intervention is needed
                    return YES;
                }
            }

            if ((flags & kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsIsWWAN) == kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsIsWWAN)
            {
                // ... but WWAN connections are OK if the calling application
                //     is using the CFNetwork (CFSocketStream?) APIs.
                return YES;
            }
        }
    }

    return NO;
}

And it's iOS 5 tested for you.

This used to be the correct answer, but it is now outdated as you should subscribe to notifications for reachability instead. This method checks synchronously:

You can use Apple's Reachability class. It will also allow you to check if Wi-Fi is enabled:

Reachability* reachability = [Reachability sharedReachability];
[reachability setHostName:@"www.example.com"];    // Set your host name here
NetworkStatus remoteHostStatus = [reachability remoteHostStatus];

if (remoteHostStatus == NotReachable) { }
else if (remoteHostStatus == ReachableViaWiFiNetwork) { }
else if (remoteHostStatus == ReachableViaCarrierDataNetwork) { }

The Reachability class is not shipped with the SDK, but rather a part of this Apple sample application. Just download it, and copy Reachability.h/m to your project. Also, you have to add the SystemConfiguration framework to your project.

Here's a very simple answer:

NSURL *scriptUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.google.com/m"];
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:scriptUrl];
if (data)
    NSLog(@"Device is connected to the Internet");
else
    NSLog(@"Device is not connected to the Internet");

The URL should point to an extremely small website. I use Google's mobile website here, but if I had a reliable web server I'd upload a small file with just one character in it for maximum speed.

If checking whether the device is somehow connected to the Internet is everything you want to do, I'd definitely recommend using this simple solution. If you need to know how the user is connected, using Reachability is the way to go.

Careful: This will briefly block your thread while it loads the website. In my case, this wasn't a problem, but you should consider this (credits to Brad for pointing this out).

Here is how I do it in my apps: While a 200 status response code doesn't guarantee anything, it is stable enough for me. This doesn't require as much loading as the NSData answers posted here, as mine just checks the HEAD response.

Swift Code

func checkInternet(flag:Bool, completionHandler:(internet:Bool) -> Void)
{
    UIApplication.sharedApplication().networkActivityIndicatorVisible = true

    let url = NSURL(string: "http://www.google.com/")
    let request = NSMutableURLRequest(URL: url!)

    request.HTTPMethod = "HEAD"
    request.cachePolicy = NSURLRequestCachePolicy.ReloadIgnoringLocalAndRemoteCacheData
    request.timeoutInterval = 10.0

    NSURLConnection.sendAsynchronousRequest(request, queue:NSOperationQueue.mainQueue(), completionHandler:
    {(response: NSURLResponse!, data: NSData!, error: NSError!) -> Void in

        UIApplication.sharedApplication().networkActivityIndicatorVisible = false

        let rsp = response as! NSHTTPURLResponse?

        completionHandler(internet:rsp?.statusCode == 200)
    })
}

func yourMethod()
{
    self.checkInternet(false, completionHandler:
    {(internet:Bool) -> Void in

        if (internet)
        {
            // "Internet" aka Google URL reachable
        }
        else
        {
            // No "Internet" aka Google URL un-reachable
        }
    })
}

Objective-C Code

typedef void(^connection)(BOOL);

- (void)checkInternet:(connection)block
{
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.google.com/"];
    NSMutableURLRequest *headRequest = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url];
    headRequest.HTTPMethod = @"HEAD";

    NSURLSessionConfiguration *defaultConfigObject = [NSURLSessionConfiguration ephemeralSessionConfiguration];
    defaultConfigObject.timeoutIntervalForResource = 10.0;
    defaultConfigObject.requestCachePolicy = NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringLocalAndRemoteCacheData;

    NSURLSession *defaultSession = [NSURLSession sessionWithConfiguration:defaultConfigObject delegate:self delegateQueue: [NSOperationQueue mainQueue]];

    NSURLSessionDataTask *dataTask = [defaultSession dataTaskWithRequest:headRequest
        completionHandler:^(NSData *data, NSURLResponse *response, NSError *error)
    {
        if (!error && response)
        {
            block([(NSHTTPURLResponse *)response statusCode] == 200);
        }
    }];
    [dataTask resume];
}

- (void)yourMethod
{
    [self checkInternet:^(BOOL internet)
    {
         if (internet)
         {
             // "Internet" aka Google URL reachable
         }
         else
         {
             // No "Internet" aka Google URL un-reachable
         }
    }];
}

Apple supplies sample code to check for different types of network availability. Alternatively there is an example in the iPhone developers cookbook.

Note: Please see @KHG's comment on this answer regarding the use of Apple's reachability code.

---

You could use Reachability by  (available here).

#import "Reachability.h"

- (BOOL)networkConnection {
    return [[Reachability reachabilityWithHostName:@"www.google.com"] currentReachabilityStatus];
}

if ([self networkConnection] == NotReachable) { /* No Network */ } else { /* Network */ } //Use ReachableViaWiFi / ReachableViaWWAN to get the type of connection.

---

Apple provides a sample app which does exactly this:

Reachability

---

Only the Reachability class has been updated. You can now use:

Reachability* reachability = [Reachability reachabilityWithHostName:@"www.apple.com"];
NetworkStatus remoteHostStatus = [reachability currentReachabilityStatus];

if (remoteHostStatus == NotReachable) { NSLog(@"not reachable");}
else if (remoteHostStatus == ReachableViaWWAN) { NSLog(@"reachable via wwan");}
else if (remoteHostStatus == ReachableViaWiFi) { NSLog(@"reachable via wifi");}

---

A version on Reachability for iOS 5 is darkseed/Reachability.h. It's not mine! =)

---

There's a nice-looking, ARC- and GCD-using modernization of Reachability here:

Reachability

---

When using iOS 12 or macOS v10.14 (Mojave) or newer, you can use NWPathMonitor instead of the pre-historic Reachability class. As a bonus you can easily detect the current network connection type:

import Network // Put this on top of your class

let monitor = NWPathMonitor()

monitor.pathUpdateHandler = { path in
    if path.status != .satisfied {
        // Not connected
    }
    else if path.usesInterfaceType(.cellular) {
        // Cellular 3/4/5g connection
    }
    else if path.usesInterfaceType(.wifi) {
        // Wi-Fi connection
    }
    else if path.usesInterfaceType(.wiredEthernet) {
        // Ethernet connection
    }
}

monitor.start(queue: DispatchQueue.global(qos: .background))

More info here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/network/nwpathmonitor

If you're using AFNetworking you can use its own implementation for internet reachability status.

The best way to use AFNetworking is to subclass the AFHTTPClient class and use this class to do your network connections.

One of the advantages of using this approach is that you can use blocks to set the desired behavior when the reachability status changes. Supposing that I've created a singleton subclass of AFHTTPClient (as said on the "Subclassing notes" on AFNetworking docs) named BKHTTPClient, I'd do something like:

BKHTTPClient *httpClient = [BKHTTPClient sharedClient];
[httpClient setReachabilityStatusChangeBlock:^(AFNetworkReachabilityStatus status)
{
    if (status == AFNetworkReachabilityStatusNotReachable) 
    {
    // Not reachable
    }
    else
    {
        // Reachable
    }
}];

You could also check for Wi-Fi or WLAN connections specifically using the AFNetworkReachabilityStatusReachableViaWWAN and AFNetworkReachabilityStatusReachableViaWiFi enums (more here).

---

I've used the code in this discussion, and it seems to work fine (read the whole thread!).

I haven't tested it exhaustively with every conceivable kind of connection (like ad hoc Wi-Fi).

---

Very simple.... Try these steps:

Step 1: Add the SystemConfiguration framework into your project.

Step 2: Import the following code into your header file.

#import <SystemConfiguration/SystemConfiguration.h>

Step 3: Use the following method

Type 1: - (BOOL) currentNetworkStatus { [UIApplication sharedApplication].networkActivityIndicatorVisible = NO; BOOL connected; BOOL isConnected; const char *host = "www.apple.com"; SCNetworkReachabilityRef reachability = SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithName(NULL, host); SCNetworkReachabilityFlags flags; connected = SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(reachability, &flags); isConnected = NO; isConnected = connected && (flags & kSCNetworkFlagsReachable) && !(flags & kSCNetworkFlagsConnectionRequired); CFRelease(reachability); return isConnected; }

Type 2: Import header : #import "Reachability.h" - (BOOL)currentNetworkStatus { Reachability *reachability = [Reachability reachabilityForInternetConnection]; NetworkStatus networkStatus = [reachability currentReachabilityStatus]; return networkStatus != NotReachable; }

Step 4: How to use:

- (void)CheckInternet
{
    BOOL network = [self currentNetworkStatus];
    if (network)
    {
        NSLog(@"Network Available");
    }
    else
    {
        NSLog(@"No Network Available");
    }
}

-(void)newtworkType {

 NSArray *subviews = [[[[UIApplication sharedApplication] valueForKey:@"statusBar"] valueForKey:@"foregroundView"]subviews];
NSNumber *dataNetworkItemView = nil;

for (id subview in subviews) {
    if([subview isKindOfClass:[NSClassFromString(@"UIStatusBarDataNetworkItemView") class]]) {
        dataNetworkItemView = subview;
        break;
    }
}


switch ([[dataNetworkItemView valueForKey:@"dataNetworkType"]integerValue]) {
    case 0:
        NSLog(@"No wifi or cellular");
        break;

    case 1:
        NSLog(@"2G");
        break;

    case 2:
        NSLog(@"3G");
        break;

    case 3:
        NSLog(@"4G");
        break;

    case 4:
        NSLog(@"LTE");
        break;

    case 5:
        NSLog(@"Wifi");
        break;


    default:
        break;
}
}

---

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
    NSString *URL = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.google.com"]];

    return (URL != NULL ) ? YES : NO;
}

Or use the Reachability class.

There are two ways to check Internet availability using the iPhone SDK:

1. Check the Google page is opened or not.

2. Reachability Class

For more information, please refer to Reachability (Apple Developer).

---

Use http://huytd.github.io/datatify/. It's easier than adding libraries and write code by yourself.

---

First: Add CFNetwork.framework in framework

Code: ViewController.m

#import "Reachability.h"

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
    Reachability *r = [Reachability reachabilityWithHostName:@"www.google.com"];
    NetworkStatus internetStatus = [r currentReachabilityStatus];

    if ((internetStatus != ReachableViaWiFi) && (internetStatus != ReachableViaWWAN))
    {
        /// Create an alert if connection doesn't work
        UIAlertView *myAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"No Internet Connection"   message:NSLocalizedString(@"InternetMessage", nil)delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"Ok" otherButtonTitles:nil];
        [myAlert show];
        [myAlert release];
    }
    else
    {
         NSLog(@"INTERNET IS CONNECT");
    }
}

---

Swift 3 / Swift 4

You must first import

import SystemConfiguration

You can check the Internet connection with the following method:

func isConnectedToNetwork() -> Bool {

    var zeroAddress = sockaddr_in()
    zeroAddress.sin_len = UInt8(MemoryLayout.size(ofValue: zeroAddress))
    zeroAddress.sin_family = sa_family_t(AF_INET)

    let defaultRouteReachability = withUnsafePointer(to: &zeroAddress) {
        $0.withMemoryRebound(to: sockaddr.self, capacity: 1) {zeroSockAddress in
            SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(nil, zeroSockAddress)
        }
    }

    var flags = SCNetworkReachabilityFlags()
    if !SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(defaultRouteReachability!, &flags) {
        return false
    }
    let isReachable = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsReachable)) != 0
    let needsConnection = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsConnectionRequired)) != 0
    return (isReachable && !needsConnection)
}

---

First download the reachability class and put reachability.h and reachabilty.m file in your Xcode.

The best way is to make a common Functions class (NSObject) so that you can use it any class. These are two methods for a network connection reachability check:

+(BOOL) reachabiltyCheck
{
    NSLog(@"reachabiltyCheck");
    BOOL status =YES;
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
                                          selector:@selector(reachabilityChanged:)
                                          name:kReachabilityChangedNotification
                                          object:nil];
    Reachability * reach = [Reachability reachabilityForInternetConnection];
    NSLog(@"status : %d",[reach currentReachabilityStatus]);
    if([reach currentReachabilityStatus]==0)
    {
        status = NO;
        NSLog(@"network not connected");
    }
    reach.reachableBlock = ^(Reachability * reachability)
    {
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
        });
    };
    reach.unreachableBlock = ^(Reachability * reachability)
    {
        dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
        });
    };
    [reach startNotifier];
    return status;
}

+(BOOL)reachabilityChanged:(NSNotification*)note
{
    BOOL status =YES;
    NSLog(@"reachabilityChanged");
    Reachability * reach = [note object];
    NetworkStatus netStatus = [reach currentReachabilityStatus];
    switch (netStatus)
    {
        case NotReachable:
            {
                status = NO;
                NSLog(@"Not Reachable");
            }
            break;

        default:
            {
                if (!isSyncingReportPulseFlag)
                {
                    status = YES;
                    isSyncingReportPulseFlag = TRUE;
                    [DatabaseHandler checkForFailedReportStatusAndReSync];
                }
            }
            break;
    }
    return status;
}

+ (BOOL) connectedToNetwork
{
    // Create zero addy
    struct sockaddr_in zeroAddress;
    bzero(&zeroAddress, sizeof(zeroAddress));
    zeroAddress.sin_len = sizeof(zeroAddress);
    zeroAddress.sin_family = AF_INET;

    // Recover reachability flags
    SCNetworkReachabilityRef defaultRouteReachability = SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(NULL, (struct sockaddr *)&zeroAddress);
    SCNetworkReachabilityFlags flags;
    BOOL didRetrieveFlags = SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(defaultRouteReachability, &flags);
    CFRelease(defaultRouteReachability);
    if (!didRetrieveFlags)
    {
        NSLog(@"Error. Could not recover network reachability flags");
        return NO;
    }
    BOOL isReachable = flags & kSCNetworkFlagsReachable;
    BOOL needsConnection = flags & kSCNetworkFlagsConnectionRequired;
    BOOL nonWiFi = flags & kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsTransientConnection;
    NSURL *testURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.apple.com/"];
    NSURLRequest *testRequest = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:testURL  cachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringLocalCacheData timeoutInterval:20.0];
    NSURLConnection *testConnection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:testRequest delegate:self];
    return ((isReachable && !needsConnection) || nonWiFi) ? (testConnection ? YES : NO) : NO;
}

Now you can check network connection in any class by calling this class method.

---

There is also another method to check Internet connection using the iPhone SDK.

Try to implement the following code for the network connection.

#import <SystemConfiguration/SystemConfiguration.h>
#include <netdb.h>

/**
     Checking for network availability. It returns
     YES if the network is available.
*/
+ (BOOL) connectedToNetwork
{

    // Create zero addy
    struct sockaddr_in zeroAddress;
    bzero(&zeroAddress, sizeof(zeroAddress));
    zeroAddress.sin_len = sizeof(zeroAddress);
    zeroAddress.sin_family = AF_INET;

    // Recover reachability flags
    SCNetworkReachabilityRef defaultRouteReachability =
        SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(NULL, (struct sockaddr *)&zeroAddress);
    SCNetworkReachabilityFlags flags;

    BOOL didRetrieveFlags = SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(defaultRouteReachability, &flags);
    CFRelease(defaultRouteReachability);

    if (!didRetrieveFlags)
    {
        printf("Error. Could not recover network reachability flags\n");
        return NO;
    }

    BOOL isReachable = ((flags & kSCNetworkFlagsReachable) != 0);
    BOOL needsConnection = ((flags & kSCNetworkFlagsConnectionRequired) != 0);

    return (isReachable && !needsConnection) ? YES : NO;
}

---

To do this yourself is extremely simple. The following method will work. Just be sure to not allow a hostname protocol such as HTTP, HTTPS, etc. to be passed in with the name.

-(BOOL)hasInternetConnection:(NSString*)urlAddress
{
    SCNetworkReachabilityRef ref = SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithName(kCFAllocatorDefault, [urlAddress UTF8String]);
    SCNetworkReachabilityFlags flags;
    if (!SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(ref, &flags))
    {
        return NO;
    }
    return flags & kSCNetworkReachabilityFlagsReachable;
}

It is quick simple and painless.

---

I found it simple and easy to use library SimplePingHelper.

Sample code: chrishulbert/SimplePingHelper (GitHub)

---

Download the Reachability file, https://gist.github.com/darkseed/1182373 And add CFNetwork.framework and 'SystemConfiguration.framework' in framework Do #import "Reachability.h"

First: Add CFNetwork.framework in framework

Code: ViewController.m

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
    Reachability *r = [Reachability reachabilityWithHostName:@"www.google.com"];
    NetworkStatus internetStatus = [r currentReachabilityStatus];

    if ((internetStatus != ReachableViaWiFi) && (internetStatus != ReachableViaWWAN))
    {
        /// Create an alert if connection doesn't work
        UIAlertView *myAlert = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"No Internet Connection"   message:NSLocalizedString(@"InternetMessage", nil)delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"Ok" otherButtonTitles:nil];
        [myAlert show];
        [myAlert release];
    }
    else
    {
         NSLog(@"INTERNET IS CONNECT");
    }
}

---

The Reachability class is OK to find out if the Internet connection is available to a device or not...

But in case of accessing an intranet resource:

Pinging the intranet server with the reachability class always returns true.

So a quick solution in this scenario would be to create a web method called pingme along with other webmethods on the service. The pingme should return something.

So I wrote the following method on common functions

-(BOOL)PingServiceServer
{
    NSURL *url=[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.serveraddress/service.asmx/Ping"];

    NSMutableURLRequest *urlReq=[NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url];

    [urlReq setTimeoutInterval:10];

    NSURLResponse *response;

    NSError *error = nil;

    NSData *receivedData = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:urlReq
                                                 returningResponse:&response
                                                             error:&error];
    NSLog(@"receivedData:%@",receivedData);

    if (receivedData !=nil)
    {
        return YES;
    }
    else
    {
        NSLog(@"Data is null");
        return NO;
    }
}

The above method was so useful for me, so whenever I try to send some data to the server I always check the reachability of my intranet resource using this low timeout URLRequest.

Apart from reachability you may also use the Simple Ping helper library. It works really nice and is simple to integrate.

I think this one is the best answer.

"Yes" means connected. "No" means disconnected.

#import "Reachability.h"

 - (BOOL)canAccessInternet
{
    Reachability *IsReachable = [Reachability reachabilityForInternetConnection];
    NetworkStatus internetStats = [IsReachable currentReachabilityStatus];

    if (internetStats == NotReachable)
    {
        return NO;
    }
    else
    {
        return YES;
    }
}

For my iOS projects, I recommend using

Reachability Class

Declared in Swift. For me, it works simply fine with

Wi-Fi and Cellular data

import SystemConfiguration

public class Reachability {

    class func isConnectedToNetwork() -> Bool {

        var zeroAddress = sockaddr_in(sin_len: 0, sin_family: 0, sin_port: 0, sin_addr: in_addr(s_addr: 0), sin_zero: (0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0))
        zeroAddress.sin_len = UInt8(MemoryLayout.size(ofValue: zeroAddress))
        zeroAddress.sin_family = sa_family_t(AF_INET)

        let defaultRouteReachability = withUnsafePointer(to: &zeroAddress) {
            $0.withMemoryRebound(to: sockaddr.self, capacity: 1) {zeroSockAddress in
                SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(nil, zeroSockAddress)
            }
        }

        var flags: SCNetworkReachabilityFlags = SCNetworkReachabilityFlags(rawValue: 0)
        if SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(defaultRouteReachability!, &flags) == false {
            return false
        }

        let isReachable = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsReachable)) != 0
        let needsConnection = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsConnectionRequired)) != 0
        let ret = (isReachable && !needsConnection)
        return ret
    }
}

Use a conditional statement,

if Reachability.isConnectedToNetwork() {
    // Enter your code here
}
}
else {
    print("NO Internet connection")
}

This class is useful in almost every case your app uses the Internet connection. Such as if the condition is true, API can be called or task could be performed.
