I spent some thought, and detecting how the computer is connected is not
trivial under Linux. You would need to parse either ifconfig -a output or
/proc/net/dev under Linux, then check for packets transmitted, interface
up/down status etc. This would be an ifdef and stringparsing hell.

I think the application usually has other fault handling in case the website
is down anyway, so we should not bother now.
