There are ways to check if you're online or not that don't depend on a specific service. If nothing else you try to connect and see what happens. This is much more reliable than assuming that everybody does things the same way you do. It's just like the reason I always nuke Update Manager: it's very good at finding updates, then telling me it's offline when I want them installed.
