Finally today I was able to connect to my wifi network but I cant get my MDA on the internet. Every connection I try fails. I am on tmobile USA and I have to use a proxy server for my gprs but not for WIFI. Am I missing something?
Try setting wifi to max performance under wifi settings - some find that does the trick
make sure ur wireless network is set to connect to the internet directly and not thro a proxy. that caused me some probs a while back.
^^^How do I go about checking the proxy?

Hi all,
I have an XDAII from the Spanish carrier Movistar (TSM500). I want the device to access internet. I have WIFI in my office, so I would like to use this infrastructure in the device instead of GPRS.
I have a SDIO card from SOCKET that works correctly with the device and I can connect internet via proxy.
I would like to know how must I configure the connection settings in order to make it transparent. I mean, if there is WIFI the device must use WIFI it not the device has to use GPRS.
Does anybody know the settings I must to apply to the device network configuration (work,internet…) in order to get this WIFI, GPRS priorities?
Thanks and regards from Spain
...and to make your question more complicated, to setup wifi with proxy, gprs with no proxy and mms connection with no proxy. All these together?
so be it - manemoi
T,
Exactly!
Hey Manemoi, that's EXACTLY What I would like!
Is there a way to have the Magician choose this automatically? For instance, I can use my Sandisk SD WiFi 256 only when I set both my ISP and Work settings to an emtpy profile. It then seems to know it should use the WiFi connection available. I can then Internet, send mail Everything! Perfect! When I take out my WiFi card and activate my Active Synch with BlueTooth, it works too, Can internet over Active Synch without problems. But Mail will connect but then not send mail for some reason...
Whenever I want to use GPRS, I gave to goto connections and then manually change the modems there for ISP to my GPRS Modem Setting. Isn't there an easier way? Can't Internet explorer be told to use whatever conection available? Instead of ALWAYS connection to whatever is set under the My ISP setting?
I'd be interested if you ever got an answer to this as I am now at the same point

Anyon e work this out?
When I look at the list of connected networks, I see these:
T-Mobile GPRS (GPRS)
[my wifi] (Wi-Fi)
The wifi connection is set as "connects to: The Internet".
Sometimes when I go to check email, it'll connect to GPRS even though I have a wifi connection. Why doesn't it use the wifi? How can I force it to use wifi instead of GPRS?
t-mobile with the 2.17 ROM, 2.07 radio.
Bump....I'd like to know the same thing.
Assuming you will never want to use GPRS....if so, write down the settings
Go to Start>Connections>Connections>Delete GPRS
At least that's what I think I did
Make sure that both your wireless lan card and wireless connection are set to connet to the internet. I had my phone wifi set as connecting to "the internet" but when I clicked on my home wireless connection in the list of available access points it was set to connect to "work". Hopes this helps.
I am wanting to know the answer to this problem also... I dont have edge or Gprs and I want to be able to check my pop & pop3 email using Wifi..
Thanks!
Does anyone know how to solve this problem???
Hey i just recently got an 8125 and when i enable wi-fi, no matter what it defaults over to the GPRS/EDGE connection. I even tried going into connection manager and disabling data transfer, but it still will not surf.
Wi-Fi IS getting an ip, and does have great signal. Can someone tell me what stupid little thing im missing is?
Try.. changing your advanced network settings .. settings\connections\advanced\select networks
gprs connection (as conectiong to a private network and internet .. set to my ISP... it worked for me ..

I have a proxy setup to allow me to connect to T-mobile's internet. I noticed that when the proxy is enabled in connection settings, my wifi does not connect to websites. However, when I disable the proxy from my gprs connection wifi works fine.
Is this normal? Is it maybe a bug with the rom im using?
Normal.
...
I have searched everywhere and instead of starting another post on the same issue I will post on this one.
I have the same issue, and understand its normal. Is there a way around this because re typing in proxy settings just to go on gprs internet is a annoying and incovienent. I want to be able to go on wifi and have everything work fine. When I disconnect wifi I can then access the internet via gprs proxy.
AT&T included both an enable proxy cab and a disable proxy cab...
However Im in the process of moving and my main computer is down...
When I get it back up I'll pull those cabs off of the phone, perhaps they will work for tmobile..beats going into the connection settings...
After all of this I found a fix.

Someone should really sticky this because this helps so much especially since I like not having to pay for my T-mobile internet via the proxy. Now I dont have to delete the proxy. My activesync and wifi work flawlessly as well as GPRS Edge.
The apps on my x1 keep trying to connect via GPRS when there is a WIFI signal available. How do i make all applications use wifi when available and only use GPRS when there is no WIFI?
thanks
I just go to settings->connection->connection-advanced select network
and pick my homenetwork rather then my isp in the dropdownbox
I've tried that, although I don't get home network, its work network . But the problem is that if there's no wifi, it doesn't connect via GPRS/HSPA. Is there anyway to make it connect via WIFI if available and by GPRS if NOT?
Thank you for your reply
