i have the tmobile mda 1.8 rom and whenever i try use the browser with wifi the gprs keeps tryin to connect but cant get connection because theres no reception and only the wifi is availible. So how do i stop this behavior and be able to just use wifi for the internet when i cant use gprs?

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?
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 ..

My Cingular 8125 randomly drops my wifi connection while connected to my home wireless network. Problem did not really seem to start until after I connected once at starbucks to tmobile hot spot.
Please help
have you removed the starbucks settings?
you find it in "network cards" (strange place for it)
yes...i did.
I also have socket communication's wifi companion loaded on my device
prob not the reason, but i recently heard that if someone is trying to "borrow" your internet access.

boots user off network, then you can grab packages as they try to reconnect.
Every Time I Try To Connect Via Wifi Then Goto Ie It Starts Up O2 Gprs & Will Not Load My Pages Cus I Am On Vodafone Help
hi all...
i just purchased a mda vario 2 and i seem to be having problems connecting to internet explorer and msn messenger via wifi. i have set up the wifi connection and it all shows that i am connected. but it just doesnt find any pages or connects to my messenger. any ideas guys? i know most of the topics on here are to do with some form of connection problem or what not.... so i will appreciate any advice.
settings->connections->Connections->advanced->sellect network
odd ms havent addres'd this a long time agoe judging for how many people who ask this question
but then guess it's the same thing for pc users who wanna change between their internet access between wifi, nic and modem
I don't think that this is the issue because my wm5 os seamlessly switched from wifi to gprs.. I see the same issue where I can access the new through the gprs setting but not through the wifi when connected to an access point. I know that the wifi accesspoint works cause I can access it on my laptop. I think it has to do with a registry setting..
Hi guys,
Got my Xperia recently on Vodafone UK network. Had problems with Wifi connection as it wouldnt connect to my home local wireless network although all security keys were right. So decided to flash it to the generic UK ROM...did so and everything else is working just the way it is...but the WiFi problem still exists. I cannot connect to my home wireless network. I can see my network, can click connect and it prompts for my network key...I've put the correct one in and it scans for a little while and then a message 'unable to connect to network, please check your network or service provider settings.'
Any idea? This phone seems like a total waste of time and money if I dont make use of it connectivity to the max! Please please please advise!
many people exp problems like this with phones with wifi and iphones and ipod touch and other portable wifi devices
most success seem to be with upgrading the firmware of ones wifi router
other people use changing to another encryption form like wpa or wpa2

i had the same problem with my netgear router, but all i had to do was log on to the router with my pc, where all the settings are and allow the connection with my X1's mac/IP address. hope this helps.
THanks for all the info guys...I have upgraded the firmware for my wireless router and it works now, I can log on with the Xperia to the WiFi. However...I still cannot use it to do anything useful. I try login on to Windows live...no...Skype...no...Opera...no. Although it is connected to the WiFi, it does not seem to be able to surf the internet. Any ideas?
well.. I would first try to disable any security to make sure your router and the phone can talk first....
now I have just got my phone 2 days ago and since then I have been using wifi all day long.... I can get on msn live and skype and opera and youtube etc... if you want to try it is the phone or the router just try to logon to another router and see... otherwise you can try bringing your phone back to the shop =P
