ConnectivityManager is a well known class in the Android framework API that allows for detecting network data. But this class does not generally return accurate results in situations where for example a device is connected to a Wi-Fi router that has no Internet access. Sonarnet wraps the ConnectivityManager and mimics the Android OS mean of detecting Internet access on connected networks. This library also helps skip the boilerplate code with a simple interface. The way Sonarnet detects internet connectivity is aslo similar to the one used by Google Chrome App, as described here : https://www.google.com/chrome/privacy/whitepaper.html#offline
