I've installed SPB's GPRS monitor on my XDA Mini S, but it seems next to useless as it appears to include all data received by ActiveSync over USB from my monthly allowance.
Hence, it appears that I can't use it to accurately monitor only the stuff downloaded by GPRS if it's also going to include anything downloaded over USB...
Help?
Si.
This happened to me, try this, might work!
Open up the GPRS monitor program in the programs list, open tools, and select the connection tab.
Check the box that says enable connection monitoring, and select your GPRS connection, in my case vodafone live, but most prob the O2 settings for you!
Let me know if this works

Tools > Options > Tab "Connection" > Tick "Enable connection monitoring" and in "Connection" choose only the GPRS connection.
Thanks Gents, you both gave the same advice.
In connection, I do have the 'Enable connection monitoring box' but then I have a drop down menu with the following 4 options:
Infrared Port
USB
Mobile Web
O2 Active
The first are clearly understandable
The latter is WAP
Mobile Web is GPRS
So, I click 'Enable connection monitoring' but it seems to turn in on for all 4 connection types.
Ok, I can select 'Mobile Web' from the drop down menu, but it does still include USB data in it's monitoring...
I must be doing something wrong.
If I select USB from the drop down menu, then turn off 'Enable connection monitoring', then the drop down becomes greyed out.
Help?
Si.

Hiya
I've looked in the previous topics but can't find anything about this...
What happens is this... I sync my xda2 onto my pc and it downloads various bits n bobs from the net through the pc connection (weatherpanel etc). If I disconnect my phone from the cradle and then the weatherpanel program tries to connect, it tries to connect through WAP Network GPRS (as set up in the auto config when the xda2 is first installed)...this never seems to work.
If I change the net connection from My Work to My ISP it's great - it will connect MOBILE WEB GPRS when it's not cradled and download the data. Unfortunately if I then reconnect to the cradle it recognises the activesync connection but then tries to redial my gprs connection instead of going through the pc connection.
What trick am I missing? Put simply I wish it to have one profile (that i don't have to keep changing) where when it's docked it goes through my pc net connection, and when carrying it around it knows to connect to the mobile web gprs.
Can anyone help?
Many thanks
Anthony
Try to use Auto Pick option in the connection settings (must have both connections in the same group)
just an idea
Give this a try:
Start > Settings > Connections > Connections > Advanced > Select Networks >
then set both drop down menus to My ISP.
Hope this works.

Is there a way to deactivate or disable this feature? I am using an i-mate PDA 2k with built in WiFi. It connects to GPRS whenever WiFi is not detected.
It can be very costly if you have been surfing full web pages.. or have automatic updates for some programs.
Thanks in advance
try this tool

I posted this a couple of weeks ago.
Start, Settings, Connections icon on the connections tab, then the advanced tab, then the select networks button - "programs that automaticall connect to the internet..........". I have changed this from gprs to my isp.

Thanks for the input. I'll try both your suggestions.
In WM2003SE when i clicked on the Network icon, the little bubble that opened used to display any configured GPRS connections with a "connect" link.
To connect all i had to do was click on "connect" and it would connect to the GPRS network.
In WM5, even though I have a gprs connection set-up, there is no mention of it on that little bubble that opens up when i click on the connection icon.
Am i dong something wrong? is there some configuration step missing or is this feature just not supported in WM5?
Same behaviour on my device, I guess it's a bug.
But the connection actually works perfectly, you just need to enter in "connections", "manage existing connections", and then "connect" with your connection of choice.
A bit tricky, but it works.
Alternatively, there are softwares which monitor the GPRS traffic and also allow a more immediate connection.
Hi
Is it possible to force my JASJAM to always connect to wifi even when wireless service is available.
Thanks

Your JASJAM (with default settings) should always "prefer" Wi-Fi over a cell connection. I'd take a look at your adapter settings and make sure that the WLAN/Wi-Fi one has "This adapter connects to the Internet" checked.

Some applications such as Windows Live (at least I've found this) still prefer to use a data call, until you cancel the connection.
You can stop it doing this if you go to Settings -> Connections tab -> Connections -> Advanced tab -> Select Networks.
If in the top box you have a "Wifi" option, select that and a data call won't be made. If not, select "New...", call the settings "Wifi" and click "ok" in the corner to create the option.
This works for me, anyway.
Hi guys,
I want my jade to check emails automatically, but only if WiFi is available.
I have no idea how to realize it in the setting. When using periodic check, my jade builds up a umts/gprs connection .
I don’t like to delete my GPRS profile or to insert incorrect settings, because I like to use it manually sometime.
Cheers,
ratsche
I guess you can do that in connection settings - connections - advanced (Einstellungen - Verbindungen - Verbindungen - Erweitert at my phone)
There you can set which connections shall be used automatically
you can set with following setting per my telco said:
-Start> Settings> Connections> Connections> Advanced tab> select Network tab> Network Management:
-Under Network Management screen, set both 'Programs that auto.... using' drop down list to "My Work Network".
i also use NoData in case anything failed to work so!
Lastly, i always check applications whether they are connected to gprs WITHOUT my notice.

Hi,
thanks for your help. What do you mean by NoData, the setting in the communication manager?
I guess, you are checking applications manually?
Yesterday my moble used GPRS without my permission again :/ (without your settings). I started WiFi to connect to my Exchange server and for some sort of reason, my jade started a GPRS connection, though there was the WiFi icon. I realized the connection only via the "spb wireless monitor" and after the synchonisation.

Hi Surf77
May I know how you check if the application is connected to gprs, instead of Wifi or wireless LAN?? I asked because sometime I use weather update.
