Is there a way to have my phone switch from edge to wifi when edge drops and an *authorized* wireless network is available (work or home)?
I haven't started poping email yet but I'd like to. Any ideas?

Is there a regedit that allows you to turn off EDGE support, leaving only the standard GPRS?
why would you want to do that?
because my operator's EDGE fails - every time i connect to the network, i can use it for about 30-60 seconds; thereafter, the device shows the connection to be active but no traffic passes (many have made similar complaints).
as the EDGE service was recently introduced, and the operator's GPRS service otherwise works flawlessly, I want to "downgrade" until the kinks are worked out...
any ideas?
My phone is fine on Edge but as soon as I connect it to Active Sync, it looses its Edge and uses WiFi. Once I remove the active sync, it never connects back to Edge unless I reboot the phone. It keeps saying it cannot dial wap.cingular. I thought the phone was supposed to auto connect on its own to the best connection and switch back. I checked with Cingular and all my settings are what they should be and the Cingular tech had no idea.

Mine does the same - it finds itself without the reset though. It just takes it a little bit.
Hi!.. does anyone know if there is a way to manually switch between GPRS 2 EDGE? Both protocol are avalable where I live and my wizard tempt to choise GPRS first or if I'm lucky EDGE... To swich to EDGE I have to turn the phone on and off many times and sometimes takes very long before it lock's up to EDGE. Anyone has a work arround to this?
Thank you
Hi
GPRS always on
If you want your GPRS (or EDGE) connection to always be on, set the following:
HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\|gprs connection name|\AlwaysOn = 1 (DWORD decimal)
And to turn it off:
HKLM\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\|gprs connection name|\AlwaysOn = 0 (DWORD decimal)
Note that |gprs connection name| will depend on the name you've given your GPRS connection

And what about if I only want to use EDGE and no "GPRS"?

EDGE is a subset of GPRS, it uses GPRS databands but is faster because it has all sorts of tweaks to the GPRS packet structure. Go to Wikipedia.org and search EDGE, and you'll get more information on it. GPRS is the databand name, EDGE is the packet structure. In other words, you want just EDGE packets, no GPRS. Here's an easy way to do that: Keep a clean signal.
So in other words if I fit an external antenna I would be ok? all the times? the things is that if I'm using EDGE I'm surfing pretty fast and also I can reiceve phone calls at the same times. I connect my laptop using BT and leave my wizzard on the coffee table! but some days I got EDGE some days not... to get EDGE I have to go to connection manager and switching the phone on and off and sometimes takes lot's of time before it switch to EDGE. So I though it would take me less to find a work arround to this... and here I am...
My Wizard stopped picking up EDGE after went to Canada for some reason... Nothing would fix it, not even a hard reset, so i had it replaced. I don't know what caused it, but maybe yours is in the same boat? If under warranty get it replaced...
Not really!!! mine works... the things is I have to switch it off and then on severals times before I get the E on display...
Recently, I upgraded my 8525 to WM6. Now every time I open either PIE or Opera, the network changes from 3G (which has a strong signal) to the Edge network. I can't get google maps to open anymore either. Any suggestions?
Hi all,
Is there any way keep Edge connection always up? When i lock the screen and wait some minutes, connection gone idle and mails dont came. When i unlock the screen and switch the Wi-fi connection, mails instantly drop in my mailbox.
I want keep the 3g or 2g connection always up. Any way ?
Thanks,
