Answer 1

To get local Ip Address:

public static string GetLocalIPAddress()
{
    var host = Dns.GetHostEntry(Dns.GetHostName());
    foreach (var ip in host.AddressList)
    {
        if (ip.AddressFamily == AddressFamily.InterNetwork)
        {
            return ip.ToString();
        }
    }
    throw new Exception("No network adapters with an IPv4 address in the system!");
}

To check if you're connected or not:

System.Net.NetworkInformation.NetworkInterface.GetIsNetworkAvailable();
