Is the network available? Has the network state changed?

The solution:

NetworkAvailability lets you register BroadcastReceiver which works for pre-lollipop and lollipop devices as well.

You have to compile your project at least with AndroidSDK 21:

android{
   compileSdkVersion 21
}

See ExampleActivity.
