Hi Markus,
there are several TCP/IP stacks now and i'm sure there is no
common way to detect if they are online or not. And if the automatic
dection doesn't work, you have the possibility to deactivate it. I
think that's the reason why this setting was born.

If i remember right, Olli wrote in a mail (months ago) that there is
no easy way to determine the reason for a 'no connection' error. (From
the net or because the stack is offline)
IMHO with the automatic offline detection this SHOULD work as you
described.
