# [`oro:network-status`](/runtime/docs/javascript/network-status/)

Observe native network-path status on Android and Linux. OS connectivity does not prove application-server reachability. Linux does not infer transport details; disabled monitoring and missing backends reject with ENOSYS.

## Examples

Subscribe before reading the initial snapshot:

```js
import networkStatus from 'oro:network-status'

const show = status => console.log(status.connected, status.validated, status.metered)
const unsubscribe = networkStatus.onChange(show)
try {
  show(await networkStatus.getStatus())
} catch (error) {
  unsubscribe()
  throw error
}
// Call unsubscribe() when this view is disposed.
```
