Nice implementation, is there any way to make this Asynchronous, so that if the connection drops the alert will pop up?

I think there is, however I have not yet done that. Have a look on whether it is possible using the Reachability class.

Nice article !
Anyway, I think you cannot open settings from your application on iOS4. Can you ? I tried to open url on iPad1 4.2 and it failed. Maybe you should add a short note about that
Works fine on iOS5

Could be, I haven’t tested in on iOS4. Thanks!

I’m currently developing a simple app when users click on “Update Database”, it will check if the user is connected to their VPN. If not, it will redirect users to the settings page and ask them to connect to VPN first.
Any ideas how? Please help.

Sorry… not at the top of my head. Check what the Reachability class can do for you, it might support it.

but…… while come to the coding am struggling. everything is fine but it’s not going to setting page. i test this in iPhone 4s (iOS 5.1) but it’s not working. NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"prefs:root=General&path=Network"];
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:url]; this is the code i written in didDismissWithButtonIndex

I’ll have a look. Most likely some WP problem

So after going to the wifi setting view, how to go back to the former view, as I do not find any back button on the wifi setting view.
