Shared device connection

Problem

Scenario: The library is used in an app on Device A . Device A is using the shared connection from Device B, but Device B does not have an internet connection.

Expected: Merlin on Device A should detect that it does not have an internet connection.
Actual: Merlin detects an internet connection.

Solution

This scenario has not tested in any great detail in the demo by any maintainers of Merlin.

Maintainers -> test this scenario on devices and see what information we have available to detect the connection on a shared network.

Sorry, @medsafwentrabelsi I don't follow.

The library is used in an app on Device A . Device A is using the shared connection from Device B, but Device B does not have an internet connection. Is that what you are saying?

yes exactly

@medsafwentrabelsi I've updated the issue description, can you verify that this is correct? Specifically the Expected and Actual as these are important.

@medsafwentrabelsi if you do not reply I will assume you are happy with my assumption and add this ticket to the backlog.
