android connection

Hi I'm using this snippet from android

public boolean isOnline() {
    ConnectivityManager connMgr = (ConnectivityManager) 
    getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
    NetworkInfo networkInfo = connMgr.getActiveNetworkInfo();
    return (networkInfo != null && networkInfo.isConnected());
}

But when I interrupt the internet connection from my desktop it won't find that isn't connected,and try to connect. I'm running it in the Android emulator. My question:why it won't return false and still figures out that it is connected?if it was connected through 3D shouldn't it get the data?

public class HttpManager {

public static String getData(String uri) {

    BufferedReader reader = null;

    try {
        URL url = new URL(uri);
        HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();

        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(con.getInputStream()));

        String line;
        while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
            sb.append(line + "\n");
        }
        return sb.toString();

    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        return null;
    } finally {
        if (reader != null) {
            try {
                reader.close();
            } catch (IOException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                return null;
            }
        }
    }

Disabling the internet connection on your computer won't reflect changes on the emulator.

You will need to disable the internet directly from the emulator like you would do on a real phone:

Settings -> Wireless and networks -> Mobile Networks -> Use packed data.

(I suppose the path may vary from emulator to emulator depending of SDK version)
