My Reachability Notifier is only able to be called once

Question

So, I have the following in my AppDelegate.
It will notify my when I turn my WIFI off but will not react after that initial run.
I have had this working in the past.
I'm on swift 3 with Xcode 8 and the reachability that is for this version of the swift and xCode.

I'm hoping to get a solution to this.

Thanks.

    var reachability: Reachability?

    func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
        // Override point for customization after application launch.

        self.reachability = Reachability()

         NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(self.reachabilityChanged(_:)), name: ReachabilityChangedNotification, object: reachability)

        do {
            try self.reachability?.startNotifier()
        } catch {
            print("Unable to start Notifier")
        }

        return true
    }

    func reachabilityChanged(_ note:Notification){
        print("is in here")
        let reachability = note.object as! Reachability
        if reachability.isReachable{
            print("is Reachable")
            // self.amConnected.text = "YES"
            //self.amConnected.fadeOut(duration: 2.0)
        }else{
            print("IsNotReachable")
            //self.amConnected.text = "No"
            //self.amConnected.fadeIn(duration: 2.0)
        }
        print("Changed status")    
    }

Answer 1

There are some changes in Reachability in Swift 3. Download the latest Reachability.swift file and add that in your project. Link

For Swift 2.x code please check my answer here

Swift 3.x code

Now in your AppDelegate take a Reachability class object

private var reachability:Reachability!

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {
    // Override point for customization after application launch.

    //Network Reachability Notification check
    NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(reachabilityChanged), name: ReachabilityChangedNotification, object: nil)

    self.reachability = Reachability.init()
    do {
        try self.reachability.startNotifier()
    } catch {
    }
    return true
}

reachabilityChanged method defination

//MARK:- Network Check
func reachabilityChanged(notification:Notification) {
    let reachability = notification.object as! Reachability
    if reachability.isReachable {
        if reachability.isReachableViaWiFi {
            print("Reachable via WiFi")
        } else {
            print("Reachable via Cellular")
        }
    } else {
         print("Network not reachable")
    }
}

This will be always called whenever user switches from Wifi to Cellular and vice versa or when Network Connects and Disconnects and vice versa.
Working fine in my case.

Answer 2

Try passing nil for the object parameter in addObserver. Also, for Swift 3, I had to initialize it with self.reachability = Reachability.forInternetConnection()
