Ping the adapter you want to know about. How do I do that if I don't know it's IP, or even if it has one? Adapters don't have individual host names as far as I am aware.
What exactly are you referring to when you say adapter? Ethernet NIC, WIFI connection, Bluetooth connection etc, real or ...

Re: Checking for Network Connection Stutus
If you don't know the IP because it is dynamic then the only way to ping it is by pinging the hostname.

I need to test if a specific adapter is connected, so I don't think ping will work ...

Re: Checking for Network Connection Stutus
Thanks for the reply.
There is a ping plugin that looks for a response from a network device.
Can you ping an adapter if you don't know the IP? (It's dynamic)
As far as "connecting" are you talking about "waking on lan" a computer?
For my steps 1 and 4 I want to find the status of a network ...

This could be pretty useful.

Checking for Network Connection Stutus
I have a few network connections (adapters) on my PC and I want to be able to check to see which ones are connected and then do different actions based on the results.
EG:
1) Check to see if Connection (adapter) X is connected.
2) If yes GOTO 5
3) If no, connect
4) Wait until connected (checking ...
