When you've got wifi enabled make sure that Settings->Connections->Network Cards has My Network Card connects to "The Internet".

Using internet on Mini s

I've just managed to setup my wireless conection on the mini s and connected up to internet explorer.
When i was messing about the other day and couldn't get wireless working everytime i opened up IE it tried to connect via GPRS but failed (i don't want to connect through anything that i have to pay for!!)
Anyway today i reset machine, setup as corporate and played with my router settings and its connected upto wireless. Now i've gone into IE and it connected up to the webpage straight away.
Question is, it just connected straight in, so i want to make sure that i'm not on GPRS or anything, how do i do that?
Cheers

Sorry I'm a new user and have yet to connect to my wireless network but I thought you could just turn on flight mode and connect using just the pc side of the phone???

I think I have worked it out now. I am typing on the mini s now, great piece of kit! I have noticed that if you are on gprs (or its trying to connect through that) then a G appears where the connection icon is. that means I am happy because my wireless connection is working every time now and its not connecting through gprs!

8125 wifi (please help)

Hi,
I just purchased the htc 8125 from cingular at full retail WITHOUT a plan
for use on my trips to Hong Kong using my sim card from a Hong Kong
provider.
While in the USA I would like to use the 8125 to access the internet without
a sim card installed and without cingular service. Wifi does recognize available
networks but I cant open any web pages.
Can you please tell me how to configure the phone to do this. I believe it is
by default programmed to use cingular's access services but I want to configure it to work as a stand alone device similar to a laptop looking for wifi signals to connect to the web.
Please help! Thank you.
David

WiFi is not configured to be used with anything of cingular...WiFi is a standalone feature in the PDA...the reason that you couldn't see a web page could possibly mean that the network you connected to had a WEP encryption...u must connect to an open network in order for it to work...

try this
I have been having problems with my wifi too...the only way that I can get it to work is to say the wifi connects to 'work' and to say that programs connecting to the internet should connect using 'My Work Network'
Turn on your WiFi
Start->Settings->'Connections' tab->WiFi or Network Cards->tap the network you want to use->under 'connects to:' chose: 'Work'->next->next->finish->ok
Start->Settings->'Connections' tab-> Connections->'Advanced' tab->programs connecting to the internet should connect using: 'My Work Network'->ok
hope this will work for you and if anyone knows how I can get around having to change this every time I want to go from GPRS to WiFi I would be much appreciated.
Haha - I just found it...someone else just posted it

Unable to connect to WiFi

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

wifi
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

I want to ensure that, then i connected to internet via WIFI, my GPRS (3g) is not connected.
How can i disable the 3g GPRS connection, and enable WIFI only
Thanks a lot!!!

No Data will allow you to stop data connection.

so now if i closed my Orange network, the WIFI should work?
It is still doesnt work, do you have any idea how to configure it?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Course it will there seperate
All you do is block Orange connection when you want and unblock when needed

This program doesn't help me , because even i close it the GPRS still work.
But than i take the SIM from the phone, or turn off the phone feature, the internet connection is unavailable.
I think that all problem that was in some topics about the WIFI speed , is because of they used the GPRS internet and not the WIFI.
So , there some more complexive problem with internet WIFI in HTC HD.
Just try to take out the SIM and than surf in internet with WIFI? There is no way!!!!!

the connection icons on the top of the screen clearly show which data connection is active
the manual describe the meaning of all the top screen icons
settings->connections->connections->advanced-select network
pick my home network or whatever the non isp connection is named on your phone
and all data connections when there is no wifi or activesync connections to get free network from will fail with an error == you will never get a grps connection again
before you turn it back to my isp or what it's named on your device
