are you sure, that you're connected to wifi? i've never had this problem, but once i noticed that when device is still connecting to wifi network and at the same time you'll try to use - for example - IE, then it will automatically try to connect via GPRS. but when it connect with wifi, IE will use that over GPRS...
I have the same problem too.
Qtek support tell me that , if the wifi connection is poor the gprs connects instead. A small help could be increasing the power to the wifi-card.
But that was not a solution for me...

Yes I am sure I'm connected with Wi-Fi. Sometimes I see connections to both GPRS and Wi-Fi.

as Paltkungen said - when connection with WLAN is poor and it disconnects even only for a while, wizard will automatically try to connect with gprs, without waiting for reestablishing of wifi connection
i even had such situation today in the morning. i've connected with WLAN and then started browsing with IE. after a while i saw that there is GPRS connection active as well! that's because wifi lost connection just for a while, so GPRS took this connection over.

how do i stop this from happening? i'm thinking i should just remove my gprs settings so it can't connect but then i can't use MMS. it happens when i'm using messenger. i'll turn wifi off and then it will say connecting to gprs.. i click cancel but it doesn't register some times and goezs ahead and connects. any suggestions?
Same problem here ... I want my Qtek 9100 to always use my WLAN network if available. If not available it can use EDGE/GPRS.
Seems like the device turns of WLAN in standby mode and use GPRS in such cases.
Hi all,
I live in a country where GPRS is very expensive to live with, however I have a DSL connection at home, and I would like to have a program that enables my wizard to connect to the internet via my PC DSL connection, that is, the wizard connects through BT to my PC, and I will browse the internet (in my wizard) using the DSL connection on my PC.
this will allow me to be around the house while surfing the intenet via a DSL connection.
could you tell me please if there is a program to do so? does Wireless modem utility enable this? I strongly prefer freeware cause I dont have a credit card (I dont have money also!! )
Regards
It does it out of the box. Plug in your USB cable and it will start ActiveSync and your Wizard will share the PC's net connection. You can also do it via Wi-Fi. I have a wireless router at home, and I can sit in the living room and browse the net at broadband speeds on my phone - neat!

If you are connected PPC to PC you always have possibility to have internet connection on PPC by wired connection USB, by Bluetooth or WiFi( with some tricks or new AS 4.2)
Your PPC will show the connection to your PC's DSL connection in the network status window if you tap on the signal strength indicator.
My MDA II shows it like this for example:
Thank you all,
You are very neat and helpful guys

I don't think you can ActiveSync over wi-fi. You can browse the net via your wi-fi router though.

No problem, did you get it to work?
At work our network is super locked down with a firewall. When I charge my 8525 at work, it loads up ActiveSync and switches over to the PC internet connection. When that happens; my irc, aim and msn connections all die. I want to be able to charge my phone and sync my calendar...but I dont want to use the PC internet connection.
I searched and only found people having problems when they want to use to the PC internet and cant... in my situation, its the opposite.
I have tried disabling the tcp/ip protocol for the WM5 LAN connection, but that kills the usb connection all together, not just the internet.
Any ideas on this? or am I the first one to ever want this?

why not just use the power adapter instead of the usb and then sync it at the end of the day
Hi,
Have you tried opening activesync, going to file then connection settings and unchecking the allow USB connections? This seems to work for me, my SPV M3100 charges and still shows the 3G connection active.
Hope this helps!!
oooops!!!

Sorry i missed the bit about syncing your calendar! Damn Eyes!!!
Will.
in Activesync 4.5 beta, under connection settings you can choose, "Allow wireless connection on device when connected to the desktop".
Maybe this would help?
Heya, Does anyone know of a way to stop the phone trying to connect to any wifi connection as you can with a normal wifi connection on a computer.
I have two wifi routers and would like it only to connect to them however it
disconnects when ever it sees a another router i.e my neighbours.
Also does anyone know of a good Free MSN App.
Regards
Nick

If you are already connected to a WIFI router the phone should not disconnect even when other WIFI networks are detected.
MSN messenger and Hotmail can be accessed using the preinstalled "Pocket MSN".
My activesync is killing the Wifi connection each time the device is connected through USB
Anybody experiencing the same issue ?

There is a setting in activesync on the host side that switches network traffic to the PC. You can deselect this. If you do not, your HD2 will close it's local connections and access the network via your PC's network connection.

Excuse me I don't want to sound noob but where is that ? I can't find it.
Hi!
ActiveSync -> File -> Connection settings ... -> check Allow wireless connections ... if you want your HD2 to retain it's WiFi connection.
(This is AS 4.5, btw.)
/P
Hey thanks, I checked it was already ticked. It seems I cannot use activesync at all it's killing the internet connection.
I did not have the problem with HD on wm6.5 but I do with the HD2. I've been looking for a solution as I ve been reading that many people are suffering from the same problem but couldnt find what was wrong.
It's not a problem, its working as designed. When using ActiveSync the phone will use your computer's internet connection. I assume your computer has internet.

What I mean by killing is disconnecting the Wifi connection, I get wifi hardware error and can't reconnect unless I unplug the USB activesync connection.

Is it the wifi connection on your computer that is disconnecting, or the wifi connection on the HD2??
