[ios] Check for internet connection with Swift

When I try to check for an internet connection on my iPhone I get a bunch of errors. Can anyone help me to fix this?

The code:

import Foundation
import SystemConfiguration

public class Reachability {

class func isConnectedToNetwork() -> Bool {

    var zeroAddress = sockaddr_in()
    zeroAddress.sin_len = UInt8(sizeofValue(zeroAddress))
    zeroAddress.sin_family = sa_family_t(AF_INET)

    let defaultRouteReachability = withUnsafePointer(&zeroAddress) {
        SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(nil, UnsafePointer($0))
    }

    var flags: SCNetworkReachabilityFlags = 0

    if SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(defaultRouteReachability, &flags) == 0 {
        return false
    }

    let isReachable = (flags & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsReachable)) != 0
    let needsConnection = (flags & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsConnectionRequired)) != 0

    return (isReachable && !needsConnection) ? true : false
}

}

The errors with the code:

If it is unreadable, error 1 says:

'Int' is not convertible to 'SCNetworkReachabilityFlags'

Error 2 & 3:

Could not find an overload for 'init' that accepts the supplied arguments

Create a new Swift file within your project, name it Reachability.swift. Cut & paste the following code into it to create your class.

import Foundation
import SystemConfiguration

open class Reachability {
    
    class 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)
    }
}

you can call Reachability from anywhere of your code, just like

if Reachability.isConnectedToNetwork() {
    print("Network is connected")
} else {
    print("Network is not connected")
}

Just figured this out for myself.

Xcode: 7.3.1, iOS 9.3.3

Using ashleymills/Reachability.swift as Reachability.swift in my project, I created the following function:

func hasConnectivity() -> Bool {
    do {
        let reachability: Reachability = try Reachability.reachabilityForInternetConnection()
        let networkStatus: Int = reachability.currentReachabilityStatus.hashValue

        return (networkStatus != 0)
    }
    catch {
        // Handle error however you please
        return false
    }
}

Simply call hasConnectivity() where ever you need to check for a connection. This works for Wifi as well as Cellular.

As of iOS 12, NWPathMonitor replaced Reachability. Use this:

import Network


struct Internet {
 
 private static let monitor = NWPathMonitor()
 
 static var active = false
 static var expensive = false
 
 /// Monitors internet connectivity changes. Updates with every change in connectivity.
 /// Updates variables for availability and if it's expensive (cellular).
 static func start() {
  guard monitor.pathUpdateHandler == nil else { return }
  
  monitor.pathUpdateHandler = { update in
   Internet.active = update.status == .satisfied ? true : false
   Internet.expensive = update.isExpensive ? true : false
  }
  
  monitor.start(queue: DispatchQueue(label: "InternetMonitor"))
 }
 
}

In use:

Internet.start()

if Internet.active {
 // do something
}
  
if Internet.expensive {
 // device is using Cellular data or WiFi hotspot
}

here is the same code with accepted answer but I find it more useful for some cases to use closures

import SystemConfiguration

public class Reachability {

    class func isConnectedToNetwork(isConnected : (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 {
            isConnected(false)
        }

        /* Only Working for WIFI
        let isReachable = flags == .reachable
        let needsConnection = flags == .connectionRequired

        return isReachable && !needsConnection
        */

        // Working for Cellular and WIFI
        let isReachable = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsReachable)) != 0
        let needsConnection = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsConnectionRequired)) != 0
        let ret = (isReachable && !needsConnection)

        isConnected(ret)
    }
}

and here is how to use it:

Reachability.isConnectedToNetwork { (isConnected) in
    if isConnected {
        //We have internet connection | get data from server
    } else {
        //We don't have internet connection | load from database 
    }
}

I have checked out implementing Ashley Mill's Reachability class without Cocoa Pods/Dependancy Manager. The idea is to make the Reachability dependency free in the project.

Xcode 7.2 - Swift 2.1

1) https://github.com/ashleymills/Reachability.swift. Download add the Reachability class to the project .

Note: While adding, please make sure 'copy items if needed' is ticked.

2) Make an AppManager.swift class . This class will cater as Public Model class where public methods & data will be added and can be utilised in any VC.

//  AppManager.swift

import UIKit
import Foundation

class AppManager: NSObject{
    var delegate:AppManagerDelegate? = nil
    private var _useClosures:Bool = false
    private var reachability: Reachability?
    private var _isReachability:Bool = false
    private var _reachabiltyNetworkType :String?

    var isReachability:Bool {
        get {return _isReachability}
    }  
   var reachabiltyNetworkType:String {
    get {return _reachabiltyNetworkType! }
   }   




    // Create a shared instance of AppManager
    final  class var sharedInstance : AppManager {
        struct Static {
            static var instance : AppManager?
        }
        if !(Static.instance != nil) {
            Static.instance = AppManager()

        }
        return Static.instance!
    }

    // Reachability Methods
    func initRechabilityMonitor() {
        print("initialize rechability...")
        do {
            let reachability = try Reachability.reachabilityForInternetConnection()
            self.reachability = reachability
        } catch ReachabilityError.FailedToCreateWithAddress(let address) {
            print("Unable to create\nReachability with address:\n\(address)")

                    self.notifyReachability(reachability)
                }
                self.reachability?.whenUnreachable = { reachability in
                    self.notifyReachability(reachability)
                }
            } else {
                self.notifyReachability(reachability)
            }
            self.delegate?.reachabilityStatusChangeHandler(reachability)
        }
    }
    deinit {
        reachability?.stopNotifier()
        if (!_useClosures) {
            NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().removeObserver(self, name: ReachabilityChangedNotification, object: nil)
        }
    }
}

3) Make a Delegate Class. I use delegate method to notify the connectivity status.

//  Protocols.swift

import Foundation
@objc protocol AppManagerDelegate:NSObjectProtocol {

    func reachabilityStatusChangeHandler(reachability:Reachability)
}

4) Make Parent class of UIViewController (Inheritance method). The parent class have methods which are accessible all child VCs.

//  UIappViewController.swift

    import UIKit

    class UIappViewController: UIViewController,AppManagerDelegate {
        var manager:AppManager = AppManager.sharedInstance

        override func viewDidLoad() {
            super.viewDidLoad()
            manager.delegate = self
        }
        override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
            super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
        }
        func reachabilityStatusChangeHandler(reachability: Reachability) {
            if reachability.isReachable() {
                print("isReachable")
            } else {
                print("notReachable")
            }
        }
    }

5) Start Real time Internet Connectivity Monitoring in AppDelegate.

func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]?) -> Bool {
    AppManager.sharedInstance.initRechabilityMonitor()
return true
}

6) I have added a Swift File Name AppReference to store constant enum values.

//  AppReference.swift

import Foundation

enum CONNECTION_NETWORK_TYPE : String {

  case WIFI_NETWORK = "Wifi"
  case WWAN_NETWORK = "Cellular"
  case OTHER = "Other"

}

7) On ViewController (ex. You want to call an API only if network is available)

//  ViewController.swift

        import UIKit

class ViewController: UIappViewController {
  var reachability:Reachability?

  override func viewDidLoad() {
    super.viewDidLoad()
    manager.delegate = self

    if(AppManager.sharedInstance.isReachability)
    {
      print("net available")
      //call API from here.

    } else {
      dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
        print("net not available")
        //Show Alert
      }
    }


    //Determine Network Type
    if(AppManager.sharedInstance.reachabiltyNetworkType == "Wifi")
    {
      print(".Wifi")
    }
    else if (AppManager.sharedInstance.reachabiltyNetworkType == "Cellular")
    {
      print(".Cellular")
    }
    else {
      dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
        print("Network not reachable")
      }
    }

  }
  override func viewWillAppear(animated: Bool) {
  }
  override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
  }
}

The sample can be downloaded @ https://github.com/alvinreuben/Reachability-Sample

Upgraded to Swift 3.1- https://github.com/alvinvgeorge/Reachability-UpgradedToSwift3

For Swift 3, Swift 4 (working with cellular and Wi-Fi):

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
        }

        /* Only Working for WIFI
        let isReachable = flags == .reachable
        let needsConnection = flags == .connectionRequired

        return isReachable && !needsConnection
        */

        // Working for Cellular and WIFI
        let isReachable = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsReachable)) != 0
        let needsConnection = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsConnectionRequired)) != 0
        let ret = (isReachable && !needsConnection)

        return ret

    }
}

Usage:

if Reachability.isConnectedToNetwork(){
    print("Internet Connection Available!")
}else{
    print("Internet Connection not Available!")
}

Apple has introduced Network Framework in iOS12.

import Foundation
import Network

class NetworkReachability {

   var pathMonitor: NWPathMonitor!
   var path: NWPath?
   lazy var pathUpdateHandler: ((NWPath) -> Void) = { path in
    self.path = path
    if path.status == NWPath.Status.satisfied {
        print("Connected")
    } else if path.status == NWPath.Status.unsatisfied {
        print("unsatisfied")
    } else if path.status == NWPath.Status.requiresConnection {
        print("requiresConnection")
    } 
}

let backgroudQueue = DispatchQueue.global(qos: .background)

init() {
    pathMonitor = NWPathMonitor()
    pathMonitor.pathUpdateHandler = self.pathUpdateHandler
    pathMonitor.start(queue: backgroudQueue)
   } 

 func isNetworkAvailable() -> Bool {
        if let path = self.path {
           if path.status == NWPath.Status.satisfied {
            return true
          }
        }
       return false
   }
 }

struct Connectivity {
    static let sharedInstance = NetworkReachabilityManager()!
    static var isConnectedToInternet:Bool {
        return self.sharedInstance.isReachable
    }
}

Now call it

if Connectivity.isConnectedToInternet{
    call_your_methods_here()
} else{
    show_alert_for_noInternet()
}

Updated version of @martin's answer for Swift 5+ using Combine. This one also includes unavailibity reason check for iOS 14.

import Combine
import Network

enum NetworkType {
    case wifi
    case cellular
    case loopBack
    case wired
    case other
}

final class ReachabilityService: ObservableObject {

    @Published var reachabilityInfos: NWPath?
    @Published var isNetworkAvailable: Bool?
    @Published var typeOfCurrentConnection: NetworkType?

    private let monitor = NWPathMonitor()
    private let backgroundQueue = DispatchQueue.global(qos: .background)

    init() {
        setUp()
    }

    init(with interFaceType: NWInterface.InterfaceType) {
        setUp()
    }

    deinit {
        monitor.cancel()
    }
}

private extension ReachabilityService {

    func setUp() {

        monitor.pathUpdateHandler = { [weak self] path in
            self?.reachabilityInfos = path
            switch path.status {
            case .satisfied:
                print("ReachabilityService: satisfied")
                self?.isNetworkAvailable = true
                break
            case .unsatisfied:
                print("ReachabilityService: unsatisfied")

                if #available(iOS 14.2, *) {
                    switch path.unsatisfiedReason {

                    case .notAvailable:
                        print("ReachabilityService: unsatisfiedReason: notAvailable")
                        break
                    case .cellularDenied:
                        print("ReachabilityService: unsatisfiedReason: cellularDenied")
                        break
                    case .wifiDenied:
                        print("ReachabilityService: unsatisfiedReason: wifiDenied")
                        break
                    case .localNetworkDenied:
                        print("ReachabilityService: unsatisfiedReason: localNetworkDenied")
                        break
                    @unknown default:
                        print("ReachabilityService: unsatisfiedReason: default")
                    }
                } else {
                    // Fallback on earlier versions
                }

                self?.isNetworkAvailable = false
                break
            case .requiresConnection:
                print("ReachabilityService: requiresConnection")
                self?.isNetworkAvailable = false
                break
            @unknown default:
                print("ReachabilityService: default")
                self?.isNetworkAvailable = false
            }
            if path.usesInterfaceType(.wifi) {
                self?.typeOfCurrentConnection = .wifi
            } else if path.usesInterfaceType(.cellular) {
                self?.typeOfCurrentConnection = .cellular
            } else if path.usesInterfaceType(.loopback) {
                self?.typeOfCurrentConnection = .loopBack
            } else if path.usesInterfaceType(.wiredEthernet) {
                self?.typeOfCurrentConnection = .wired
            } else if path.usesInterfaceType(.other) {
                self?.typeOfCurrentConnection = .other
            }
        }

        monitor.start(queue: backgroundQueue)
    }
}

Usage:

In your view model:

private let reachability = ReachabilityService()

init() {
    reachability.$isNetworkAvailable.sink { [weak self] isConnected in
        self?.isConnected = isConnected ?? false
    }.store(in: &cancelBag)
}

In your controller:

viewModel.$isConnected.sink { [weak self] isConnected in
    print("isConnected: \(isConnected)")
    DispatchQueue.main.async {
        //Update your UI in here
    }
}.store(in: &bindings)

If you are using Alamofire, you can do something like this:

let configuration = NSURLSessionConfiguration.defaultSessionConfiguration()
configuration.timeoutIntervalForRequest = 15 //Set timeouts in sec
configuration.timeoutIntervalForResource = 15

let alamoFireManager = Alamofire.Manager(configuration:configuration)
alamoFireManager?.request(.GET, "https://yourURL.com", parameters: headers, encoding: .URL)
                     .validate()
                              .responseJSON { response in

                                if let error = response.result.error {
                                   switch error.code{
                                    case -1001:
                                        print("Slow connection")
                                        return
                                    case -1009:
                                        print("No Connection!")
                                        return
                                    default: break
                                    }
                                }

While it may not directly determine whether the phone is connected to a network, the simplest(, cleanest?) solution would be to 'ping' Google, or some other server, (which isn't possible unless the phone is connected to a network):

private var urlSession:URLSession = {
    var newConfiguration:URLSessionConfiguration = .default
    newConfiguration.waitsForConnectivity = false
    newConfiguration.allowsCellularAccess = true
    return URLSession(configuration: newConfiguration)
}()

public func canReachGoogle() -> Bool
{
    let url = URL(string: "https://8.8.8.8")
    let semaphore = DispatchSemaphore(value: 0)
    var success = false
    let task = urlSession.dataTask(with: url!)
    { data, response, error in
        if error != nil
        {
            success = false
        }
        else
        {
            success = true
        }
        semaphore.signal()
    }

    task.resume()
    semaphore.wait()

    return success
}

If you're concerned that the server may be down or may block your IP, you can always ping multiple servers in a similar fashion and return whether any of them are reachable. Or have someone set up a dedicated server just for this purpose.

if your project has a target above or equal iOS 12 and uses combine you could use this little piece of code.

import Combine
import Network

enum NerworkType {
    case wifi
    case cellular
    case loopBack
    case wired
    case other
}

protocol ReachabilityServiceContract {
    var reachabilityInfos: PassthroughSubject<NWPath, Never> { get set }
    var isNetworkAvailable: CurrentValueSubject<Bool, Never> { get set }
    var typeOfCurrentConnection: PassthroughSubject<NerworkType, Never> { get set }
}

final class ReachabilityService: ReachabilityServiceContract {
    var reachabilityInfos: PassthroughSubject<NWPath, Never> = .init()
    var isNetworkAvailable: CurrentValueSubject<Bool, Never> = .init(false)
    var typeOfCurrentConnection: PassthroughSubject<NerworkType, Never> = .init()

    private let monitor: NWPathMonitor
    private let backgroudQueue = DispatchQueue.global(qos: .background)

    init() {
        monitor = NWPathMonitor()
        setUp()
    }

    init(with interFaceType: NWInterface.InterfaceType) {
        monitor = NWPathMonitor(requiredInterfaceType: interFaceType)
        setUp()
    }

    deinit {
        monitor.cancel()
    }
}

private extension ReachabilityService {
    func setUp() {
    
        monitor.pathUpdateHandler = { [weak self] path in
            self?.reachabilityInfos.send(path)
            switch path.status {
            case .satisfied:
                self?.isNetworkAvailable.send(true)
            case .unsatisfied, .requiresConnection:
                self?.isNetworkAvailable.send(false)
            @unknown default:
                self?.isNetworkAvailable.send(false)
            }
            if path.usesInterfaceType(.wifi) {
                self?.typeOfCurrentConnection.send(.wifi)
            } else if path.usesInterfaceType(.cellular) {
                self?.typeOfCurrentConnection.send(.cellular)
            } else if path.usesInterfaceType(.loopback) {
                self?.typeOfCurrentConnection.send(.loopBack)
            } else if path.usesInterfaceType(.wiredEthernet) {
                self?.typeOfCurrentConnection.send(.wired)
            } else if path.usesInterfaceType(.other) {
                self?.typeOfCurrentConnection.send(.other)
            }
        }
    
        monitor.start(queue: backgroudQueue)
    }
}

Just subscribe to the variable you want to follow and you should be updated of any changes.

This is my version. Essentially it doesn't bring anything new. I bound it to UIDevice.

import UIKit
import SystemConfiguration

extension UIDevice {

    open class var isConnectedToNetwork: Bool {
        get {
            var zeroAddress = sockaddr_in()
            zeroAddress.sin_len = UInt8(MemoryLayout.size(ofValue: zeroAddress))
            zeroAddress.sin_family = sa_family_t(AF_INET)

            guard
                let defaultRouteReachability: SCNetworkReachability = withUnsafePointer(to: &zeroAddress, {
                    $0.withMemoryRebound(to: sockaddr.self, capacity: 1) {
                        SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(nil, $0)
                    }
                }),
                var flags: SCNetworkReachabilityFlags = SCNetworkReachabilityFlags() as SCNetworkReachabilityFlags?,
                SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(defaultRouteReachability, &flags)
                else { return false }

            return flags.contains(.reachable) && !flags.contains(.connectionRequired)
        }
    }

}

print("Network status availability: " + ( UIDevice.isConnectedToNetwork ? "true" : "false" ))

Although it does not directly answers your question, I would like to mention Apple recentely had this talk:

https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2018/714/

At around 09:55 he talks about doing this stuff you are asking about:

1. Check connection
2. If connection -> Do something
3. If no connection -> Do something else (wait? retry?)

However, this has a few pitfalls:

• What if in step 2 it says it has a connection, but 0.5 seconds later he hasn't?
• What if the user is behind a proxy
• Last but not least, what if some answers here can not determine the connectivity right? (I am sure that if you rapidly switch your connection, go to wi-fi and turn it off (just make it complicated), it almost never can correctly determine whetever I got a connection or not).
• Quote from the video: "There is no way to guarentee whether a future operation will succeed or not"

The following points are some best practices according to Apple:

• set waitsForConnectivity to true (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/urlsessionconfiguration/2908812-waitsforconnectivity)
• respond to the delegate method taskIsWaitingForConnectivity (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/urlsessiontaskdelegate/2908819-urlsession). This is Apple's recommended way to check for connectivity, as mentioned in the video at 33:25.

According to the talk, there shouldn't be any reason to pre-check whetever you got internet connection or not, since it may not be accurate at the time you send your request to the server.

Use this for Swift-5+

import Foundation
import UIKit
import SystemConfiguration

public class InternetConnectionManager {
    
    
    private init() {
        
    }
    
    public static func isConnectedToNetwork() -> Bool {
        
        var zeroAddress = sockaddr_in()
        zeroAddress.sin_len = UInt8(MemoryLayout.size(ofValue: zeroAddress))
        zeroAddress.sin_family = sa_family_t(AF_INET)
        guard let defaultRouteReachability = withUnsafePointer(to: &zeroAddress, {
            
            $0.withMemoryRebound(to: sockaddr.self, capacity: 1) {
                
                SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(nil, $0)
                
            }
            
        }) else {
            
            return false
        }
        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)
    }
    
}

Usage:

if InternetConnectionManager.isConnectedToNetwork(){
    print("Connected")
}else{
    print("Not Connected")
}

Or Just use this framework for more Utilities: Link

here my solution for swift 2.3 with the lib (Reachability.swift)

Go into your Podfile and add :

pod 'ReachabilitySwift', '~> 2.4' // swift 2.3

Then into your terminal :

pod install

Then create a new file ReachabilityManager and add code below :

import Foundation
import ReachabilitySwift

enum ReachabilityManagerType {
    case Wifi
    case Cellular
    case None
}

class ReachabilityManager {
    static let sharedInstance = ReachabilityManager()

    private var reachability: Reachability!
    private var reachabilityManagerType: ReachabilityManagerType = .None


    private init() {
        do {
            self.reachability = try Reachability.reachabilityForInternetConnection()
        } catch {
            print("Unable to create Reachability")
            return
        }

        NSNotificationCenter.defaultCenter().addObserver(self, selector: #selector(ReachabilityManager.reachabilityChanged(_:)),name: ReachabilityChangedNotification,object: self.reachability)
        do{
            try self.reachability.startNotifier()
        }catch{
            print("could not start reachability notifier")
        }
    }

    @objc private func reachabilityChanged(note: NSNotification) {

        let reachability = note.object as! Reachability

        if reachability.isReachable() {
            if reachability.isReachableViaWiFi() {
                self.reachabilityManagerType = .Wifi
            } else {
                self.reachabilityManagerType = .Cellular
            }
        } else {
            self.reachabilityManagerType = .None
        }
    }
}

extension ReachabilityManager {

    func isConnectedToNetwork() -> Bool {
        return reachabilityManagerType != .None
    }

}

How use it:

go into your AppDelegate.swift and add the code below :

func application(application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [NSObject: AnyObject]?) -> Bool {
     ReachabilityManager.sharedInstance
}

Then when you want to check if the device is connected to internet do :

if ReachabilityManager.sharedInstance.isConnectedToNetwork() {
   // Connected
} else {
  // Not connected
}

With the help of below code you can check for internet Connection for both cellular network as well as for wifi. language - Swift 3.0

import UIKit
import Foundation
import SystemConfiguration

class NetworkConnection: UIViewController {

  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)

    guard let defaultRouteReachability = withUnsafePointer(to: &zeroAddress, {
      $0.withMemoryRebound(to: sockaddr.self, capacity: 1) {
        SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(nil, $0)
      }
    }) else {
      return false
    }

    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
    return (isReachable && !needsConnection)
  }

  class func checkConnection(sender:UIViewController){
    if NetworkConnection.isConnectedToNetwork() == true {
      print("Connected to the internet")
      //  Do something
    } else {
      print("No internet connection")
      let alertController = UIAlertController(title: "No Internet Available", message: "", preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.alert)
      let okAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: UIAlertActionStyle.default){(result:UIAlertAction) -> Void in
        return
      }
      alertController.addAction(okAction)
      sender.present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)
      //  Do something
    }
  }

}

I have made my own solution using NSTimer and Alamofire:

import Alamofire

public class ConnectionHelper: NSObject {
    var request: Alamofire.Request?

    func isInternetConnected(completionHandler: Bool -> Void) {
        NSTimer.scheduledTimerWithTimeInterval(5.0, target: self, selector: "requestTimeout", userInfo: nil, repeats: false)

        request = Alamofire
            .request(
                Method.HEAD,
                "http://www.testurl.com"
            )
            .response { response in
                if response.3?.code == -999 {
                    completionHandler(
                        false
                    )
                } else {
                    completionHandler(
                        true
                    )
                }
        }
    }

    func requestTimeout() {
        request!.cancel()
    }
}

The NSTimer is used as a timeout, and was used due to unreliable results using the Alamofire timeout. The request should be made to a URL you trust to be reliable, such as your own server or the server that is hosting the services you depend on.

When the timer expires, the request is cancelled and the results are returned using a completion handler.

Usage:

ConnectionHelper().isInternetConnected() { internetConnected in
    if internetConnected {
        // Connected
    } else {
        // Not connected
    }
}

Create a new Swift file within your project, name it Reachability.swift. Cut & paste the following code into it to create your class.

import Foundation
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(sizeofValue(zeroAddress))
        zeroAddress.sin_family = sa_family_t(AF_INET)

        let defaultRouteReachability = withUnsafePointer(&zeroAddress) {
            SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(kCFAllocatorDefault, UnsafePointer($0))
        }

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

        let isReachable = flags == .Reachable
        let needsConnection = flags == .ConnectionRequired

        return isReachable && !needsConnection

    }
}

You can check internet connection anywhere in your project using this code:

if Reachability.isConnectedToNetwork() {
    println("Internet connection OK")
} else {
    println("Internet connection FAILED")
}

If the user is not connected to the internet, you may want to show them an alert dialog to notify them.

if Reachability.isConnectedToNetwork() {
    println("Internet connection OK")
} else {
    println("Internet connection FAILED")
    var alert = UIAlertView(title: "No Internet Connection", message: "Make sure your device is connected to the internet.", delegate: nil, cancelButtonTitle: "OK")
    alert.show()
}

Explanation:

We are making a reusable public class and a method which can be used anywhere in the project to check internet connectivity. We require adding Foundation and System Configuration frameworks.

In the public class Reachability, the method isConnectedToNetwork() -> Bool { } will return a bool value about internet connectivity. We use a if loop to perform required actions on case. I hope this is enough. Cheers!

iOS12 Swift 4 and Swift 5

If you just want to check the connection, and your lowest target is iOS12, then you can use NWPathMonitor

import Network

It needs a little setup with some properties.

let internetMonitor = NWPathMonitor()
let internetQueue = DispatchQueue(label: "InternetMonitor")
private var hasConnectionPath = false

I created a function to get it going. You can do this on view did load or anywhere else. I put a guard in so you can call it all you want to get it going.

func startInternetTracking() {
    // only fires once
    guard internetMonitor.pathUpdateHandler == nil else {
        return
    }
    internetMonitor.pathUpdateHandler = { update in
        if update.status == .satisfied {
            print("Internet connection on.")
            self.hasConnectionPath = true
        } else {
            print("no internet connection.")
            self.hasConnectionPath = false
        }
    }
    internetMonitor.start(queue: internetQueue)
}

/// will tell you if the device has an Internet connection
/// - Returns: true if there is some kind of connection
func hasInternet() -> Bool {
    return hasConnectionPath
}

Now you can just call the helper function hasInternet() to see if you have one. It updates in real time. See Apple documentation for NWPathMonitor. It has lots more functionality like cancel() if you need to stop tracking the connection, type of internet you are looking for, etc. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/network/nwpathmonitor

If someone is already using Alamofire then -

struct Connectivity {
  static let sharedInstance = NetworkReachabilityManager()!
  static var isConnectedToInternet:Bool {
      return self.sharedInstance.isReachable
    }
}

Usage:

if Connectivity.isConnectedToInternet {
     print("Connected")
 } else {
     print("No Internet")
}

Swift 5

import SystemConfiguration    

protocol Utilities {}
extension NSObject: Utilities {
    enum ReachabilityStatus {
        case notReachable
        case reachableViaWWAN
        case reachableViaWiFi
    }
    
    var currentReachabilityStatus: ReachabilityStatus {
        
        var zeroAddress = sockaddr_in()
        zeroAddress.sin_len = UInt8(MemoryLayout<sockaddr_in>.size)
        zeroAddress.sin_family = sa_family_t(AF_INET)
        guard let defaultRouteReachability = withUnsafePointer(to: &zeroAddress, {
            $0.withMemoryRebound(to: sockaddr.self, capacity: 1) {
                SCNetworkReachabilityCreateWithAddress(nil, $0)
            }
        }) else {
            return .notReachable
        }
        
        var flags: SCNetworkReachabilityFlags = []
        if !SCNetworkReachabilityGetFlags(defaultRouteReachability, &flags) {
            return .notReachable
        }
        
        if flags.contains(.reachable) == false {
            // The target host is not reachable.
            return .notReachable
        }
        else if flags.contains(.isWWAN) == true {
            // WWAN connections are OK if the calling application is using the CFNetwork APIs.
            return .reachableViaWWAN
        }
        else if flags.contains(.connectionRequired) == false {
            // If the target host is reachable and no connection is required then we'll assume that you're on Wi-Fi...
            return .reachableViaWiFi
        }
        else if (flags.contains(.connectionOnDemand) == true || flags.contains(.connectionOnTraffic) == true) && flags.contains(.interventionRequired) == false {
            // The connection is on-demand (or on-traffic) if the calling application is using the CFSocketStream or higher APIs and no [user] intervention is needed
            return .reachableViaWiFi
        }
        else {
            return .notReachable
        }
    }
}

In any method use the below condition

if currentReachabilityStatus == .notReachable {
    // Network Unavailable
} else {
    // Network Available
}

For swift 3, I couldn't use just reachability from RAJAMOHAN-S solutions since it returns "true" if there is WiFi but no Internet. Thus, I implemented second validation via URLSession class and completion handler.

Here is the whole class.

import Foundation
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
}

// Working for Cellular and WIFI
let isReachable = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsReachable)) != 0
let needsConnection = (flags.rawValue & UInt32(kSCNetworkFlagsConnectionRequired)) != 0
let ret = (isReachable && !needsConnection)

return ret
}



class func isInternetAvailable(webSiteToPing: String?, completionHandler: @escaping (Bool) -> Void) {

// 1. Check the WiFi Connection
guard isConnectedToNetwork() else {
  completionHandler(false)
  return
}

// 2. Check the Internet Connection
var webAddress = "https://www.google.com" // Default Web Site
if let _ = webSiteToPing {
  webAddress = webSiteToPing!
}

guard let url = URL(string: webAddress) else {
  completionHandler(false)
  print("could not create url from: \(webAddress)")
  return
}

let urlRequest = URLRequest(url: url)
let session = URLSession.shared
let task = session.dataTask(with: urlRequest, completionHandler: { (data, response, error) in
  if error != nil || response == nil {
    completionHandler(false)
  } else {
    completionHandler(true)
  }
})

  task.resume()
}
}

And you call this like this, for example:

Reachability.isInternetAvailable(webSiteToPing: nil) { (isInternetAvailable) in
  guard isInternetAvailable else {
    // Inform user for example
    return
  }

  // Do some action if there is Internet
}
