When a computer (computer system) is “online,” it’s said to be “sharing,” so make use of {lIn}. (“Offline,” then, would make use of {lInHa’}.)
Interesting to have {lIn} with a single subject, as it's my understanding that {lIn} is more "share (among a group)", while {bon} is "share (one's own resources with beneficiaries)". It makes sense, though, as information isn't really a finite quantity. Also, I suppose a singular subject doesn't necessarily imply a single party. "The computer system participates in the sharing. As do the users, but we're not really interested in them here."
I suppose you might also use:
{bIlInHa'choHpu'.} = "You have become disconnected."
{bIlInHa'choHta'.} = "You have successfully logged off."
This is more like "You have intentionally disconnected (gone offline)". There's a separate term for "log off", which is {[mab] ngaQmoH}. -- De'vID
