applescript - airport - internet connect

Hi. I'm sure this is an easy question and I am simply not using the
right keywords in my search for the answer. If someone could steer
me in the right direction, I'd be a happy camper.

I have a G4 desktop with an Airport card that connects to an Airport
base station which dials into my ISP.
If the base station is not dialed into the ISP and I run this script:

tell application "Internet Connect"
properties of configuration "AirPort"
end tell

I get:

{name:"AirPort", status:{state:0, bytes sent:0, bytes received:0,
speed:0, seconds connected:0, seconds remaining:-1, protocol:0,
message:"", class:status record}, class:configuration}

but if I use Internet connect to tell the base station to connect and
then I run the same script I get:

{name:"AirPort", status:{state:0, bytes sent:0, bytes received:0,
speed:0, seconds connected:0, seconds remaining:-1, protocol:0,
message:"", class:status record}, class:configuration}

my question is: Why is the output of the two script runs the same?
For example, shouldn't the states be different?

The reason I am concerned about all of this is I want to be sure that
the base station is connected to the ISP before the rest of my script
(not shown here) begins transferring files through Fetch. Perhaps
there is a much simpler way that I am missing entirely.

Thanks for your help.

-Brian
