How to check network type (data class, i.e. EDGE/3G/LTE) for mobile broadband under Windows 7

497 Views Asked by At

I use the mobile broadband api (mobile broadband api in msdn) to handle 3G/LTE modem connections under windows 7.

Depends on used hardware (LTE-Stick or built in modem) I get different behavior, when I want to check the current connection generation.

In some cases I get for few seconds correct data class (i.e. 3G) and then for the most of the time the "custom" data class MBN_DATA_CLASS_CUSTOM.

So I want to try a different solution, mayby there is a problem with the modem and the MBN-API.

I know about the NetworkInformation.GetInternetConnectionProfile() but this works only under Windows 8 and above (example).

My question is: Is there any other API / Class that I can use to get the data class?
