detect if dial up connection is idle

i have serach the forum all over for that and many other sites found some ways but non working on win2000 has anyone ever made that please help

have you looked at the InternetAttemptConnect call, perhaps you could set a timer on this & if it returns a 0 it'll mean the PC's not connected ...

thats not what i m asking i want to see for how many seconds the dial up connection is idle though of a way if i could enumerate the properties of my dial up conn next i could check the bytes send and bytes received and see if the connection is idle but how can i do that?
