Feel free to try our DirectConnection Xtra at:
http://www.directxtras.com
The trial version includes documentation and a sample Director movie
that utilizes the Xtra by letting you connect/disconnect dial-up
connections, track connections status, create, modify, delete
connection profiles, and more...
Feel free to contact me, off the list, for further information regarding
DirectConnection Xtra.
FYI
The environment.internetconnected is still not reliable.
