You should use AlarmManager to check the Internet-connection.Check the official example and check out this tut. I hope it should do the trick

You can use Timer for repeating a task at fixed interval.

Timer timer = new Timer();
t.scheduleAtFixedRate(new TimerTask() {

    @Override
    public void run() {
        boolean internetConnected = checkInternetConnection();
    }

}, 0, 300000);  //for repeating every 5 minutes

public boolean checkInternetConnection (){
    //your code
}

Hope it helps.
