In the case of dialup, you could use the RAS API to see if there are any
dialup connections configured in DUN, and also to see if any dialup
connections are currently active.  That won't tell you if the connections
are used for internet access, though.

As for the rest, you can't discover the type.  Internet connections are just
another type of network connection, regardless of the type of hardware being
used.  Especially where DSL and Cable are concerned, once configured they
are transparant to the computer.  You will just have to ask the user what is
actually being used.
