How can I popup when no connection the default Connection Failed dialog?

Whenever a application needs internet and connection fails, I get a message dialog

Connection failed
This application requires network access. Enable mobile network or Wi-Fi to download data.

and two buttons, Settings, Cancel.

How do I detect there is no internet connection?
How do I popup a same dialog in my application?
