Also successfully detected multiple simultaneously active connections from Lazarus code. The next step will be to implement network connection identification in C code.
After that, I will do my next commit to git.devuan.org Automatic searching for Wifi hotspots probably will need a separate thread to simplify the code, although I am confident this can be achieved from the main thread without crippling it. However, without a separate thread, the code will be far more complex and difficult to read. I am opting for a separate thread.
