Emulator: networktype always NONE

function gotNet(network){
		console.log('networktype: ' + network.networkType);
		callback(network.networkType);
	}
    
    tizen.systeminfo.getPropertyValue("NETWORK", gotNet, netError);

network.networkType is always 'NONE' in the tizen emulator. Is there any way to change the networktype of the emulator? I can browse websites, so it definitely is not NONE.

The emulator does not support WiFi connectivity (it uses host network to connect to the Internet).

See below link for more details on Emulator network architecture,

You might need to test such features on the Tizen device (the code works fine on the device though).

Thank you very much for your reply. I do not have any problems connecting the emulator to the internet. The only problem is that the value returned by the API is always NONE. I hope it works on the device as I just submitted my app to the store...
