If you want to ping the server, try this:

SimplePing

It allows for you to ping by either hostname or IP.

Apple provides reachability classes you can use the class and

You can download reachability.h and Reachability.m

And use this as 

Reachability* reachability = [[Reachability reachabilityWithHostName: @"www.apple.com"] retain];
NetworkStatus netStatus = [reachability currentReachabilityStatus];

netStatus gives the reachabilty of the server.
