 <service android:name="com.me.services.MusicService">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="com.me.action.NOTIFY_WIFI_CHANGE"/>

            </intent-filter>
        </service>

public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
            Intent notifyIntent = new Intent(MusicService.ACTION_NOTIFY_WIFI_CHANGE);
            notifyIntent.putExtra("have_connection", mHaveConnection);
            context.startService(intent);
        }

and in my MusicService:


    public static final String ACTION_NOTIFY_WIFI_CHANGE = "com.me.action.NOTIFY_WIFI_CHANGE;
....

onStartCommand() { ...       else if(action.equals(ACTION_NOTIFY_WIFI_CHANGE))handleWifiChange(intent);}
