Internet access via WiFi on XDA IIs

Forgive me if this has afterall been asked before, copious use of the search function has returned nothing of any use or in most cases, any relation.
I've recently aquired an O2 XDA IIs, unlocked, and I'm using it with my T-Mobile sim card. I'm trying to access the internet via the WiFi connection, but every time I attempt to connect (for example with MSN Messenger) it tries to connect via GPRS. I've tried making a new connection in settings, or editing existing connections, and yet all I'm presented with to connect through are these:
Bluetooth Dialup Modem
Cellular Line
Cellular Line (GPRS)
Generic IrDA
Hayes Compatible on COM1:
^I don't see a "Wireless LAN" option there.
If anyone could shed some light on this, it would be -very- much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

wi-fi has a setting of it's own in the connection manager which needs to be switched on before you can connect to anything.
You need to connect to your wi-fi network, then activate MSN Messenger etc

Hi can someone please help, my Tytn gets confused between using a wireless network and the three network. When I'm out and about I use three to access the internet if I can't find a free wirless network, but when I have acccess to a wireless network the Tytn still tries to connect to the internet through the three network. How can I set up the Tytn so that when a wirelss network is available it connects to it insted of the three network and vice versa.

Hi All. Newbie here

OK I don't know if this is possible but with my Hermes(WM6) connected to my PC via USB using activesync 4.5. Can I get it to connect to the internet via the PC's internet connection (cable LAN to router).

if the pda is connected and my network is choosen as connection in
system settings network.....
in the pda
then it have access to thee same network as the pc it sync with
same thing with bluetooth sync
If I go into manage networks it only shows T-mobile and if I try set a new network they are all dial up types. when I try to connect to the internet I just get an error message saying connection was lost
i go into settings->connections-connections->advanced->sellect network
i get 2 dropdownbox's with my isp and my work network
if i pick my work network i only have network access over activesync
ok I tried that and all i still get is the connection lost error????????
I have also tried it on a wireless network, it connects fine and then the the same error

WAP instead of WIFI

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
