In an UWP, how can I detect if my laptop is connected to the internet via Wifi or via wired ethernet?

Answer 1

You can use ConnectionProfile in Windows.Networking.Connectivity.

IsWlanConnectionProfile
Gets a value that indicates if connection profile is a WLAN (WiFi) connection. This determines whether or not WlanConnectionProfileDetails is null.

IsWwanConnectionProfile
Gets a value that indicates if connection profile is a WWAN (mobile) connection. This determines whether or not WwanConnectionProfileDetails is null.
