I think an internet connection listener would be very handy in Cocos2d-x which returns wi-fi/network internet availability in real time. What do you think?

Yes, this would be very handy, but an implementation would need to handle various scenarios like:
- Connection availability
- Blocked packets by firewalls
- NAT types and issues
You could have an internet connection available, but still packets could be blocked by various scenarios.
There is always a way, isn’t there? 
Sure, but if it’s some firewall or NAT issue, it’s on the user to solve it. It’s not in the realm of “try to enable your wifi connectivity” 
@hgokturk Please, there is no need to tag so many people in these posts. Especially @zhangxm @mannewalis @ricardo @nite These folks have a lot of work to do. If you want to tag me, fine, and if there becomes a need to consult someone else we can look them in at that time.

I really didn’t understand the feature request. please add more context, use case, etc.
