Why does my Interstitial iAd crash when there is no Internet connection?

I can't figure out how to restrict my Interstitial iAd to only show when there is an internet connection. I have implemented the -bannerView:didFailToReceiveAdWithError: function and tried logging the error, but it never even gets called.

The result of my app trying to load an iAd without an Internet connection is a nasty memory issue, and a sudden crash.

I'm sure the solution is simple, but I can't find it anywhere else.

It sounds like you're requesting an interstitial ad when an interstitial fails to load, resulting in an infinite loop of ad requests when there is no internet connection.

Here's a simple function to check for connectivity:

-(BOOL)canConnectToGoogle {
    NSString *URLString = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"https://google.com"] encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];
    return ( URLString != NULL ) ? YES : NO;
}
