What mobile network is available and/or active?

Running an LC 8 app on an android/iPhone phone. Need to detect if WIFI is either on or off. I know I could try to download a file from a server but that would not tell me if it was over wireless or 3G/4G. Anybody know of a way to do this? Would be nice to be able to tell if wireless is not on, which network is on... 3G? 4G?
Thanks.

G'Day Tonymac,
Not anything i have attempted yet but I probably would begin looking to access the Android API.
Maybe this will help

I'll be interested in the results.

Only way I was able to do it was via this method.

If tells me if the user if connected via a 3G connection if not then they are on a active WIFI connection.
Has proved useful and reliable for a few projects.
