Hello,
Is there any step by step on how to connect the internet using the wi-fi feature only and not the gprs.
I've got a cingular 8525 and I've tried all sorts of configurations to make the internet work but no matter I do every time I open the internet explorer to browse internet it tries to connect through GPRS.
How can I set up my phone to use wi-fi only and not gprs?
thanks,
Moscou
settings->connections->connections->advance
choose my network rather then my isp in both the dropdown box's
It didn't work! Any other clue?
donno to see if it's a connection setting then if you are sync'd with bluetooth to activesync it should use the network of the pc it's sync'd with
Don't know if this helps but I use the NODATA application to disable ISP and GRS so by default it always tries to connect to wifi.

I have my O2 mini to connect to Exchange Server, however, it won't connect automatically (my settings is at every 15 minutes). It kept generating the following error:
"unable to connect, verify your dialup or proxy settings are correct, and try again. Error code: CONNMGR_36"
However, if I connect the GPRS manually first, and then manually press the Sync button for Active Sync (at O2 mini), ir works just fine.
Please help. It drives me crazy to manually do this all the time!
Thanks, William
I think you're connect to gprs using work profile in network connections. Thats why it is checking dial-up username, proxy setting and others. Change the connect ot ISP for activesync. Also you can keep GPRS always connected. Why you need to disconect GPRS?
Thanks for the reply. where do you change the settings so that activesync will connect ot ISP? I don't see any settings/options at all at the activesync tools menu.
Also, how do you keep the GPRS connected all the time? My GPRS got disconnected from time to time.
Sorry for all these questions. I am a newbie at pocket pc (just transfer from my good ol' palm to the awesome o2 mini).
Thanks again,
William
To change that go to setting > connections > connections > advanced > select network. Chosse internet programs "My ISP" and go back to Tasks in connections and configure you gprs connection details in "My ISP".
Your GPRS disconnection issue you have talk with your provider support. Mine I will never disconnect it.
still not working. Activesync still won't connect automatically, but manually works fine. Any tips?
Hey,
I'm using a Qtek 2020i which I believe is the same as a xdaIIi. I have a wireless network set up at home and have managed to connect to it with the built-in Wlan device in my Qtek but every time I try to connect to the internet or send/receive emails it tries to connect to gprs even though it shows wifi is connected.
I have read some of the other forum posts here and many of them say to check that my network card is set to connect to the internet however where it says 'my network card connects to' there is only a blank box after it - no option to choose work or internet??
Has anyone got any advice on how to resolve this issue.
Thanks in avdance.
system->Connections->Connections->advanced
and pick the connection of your cellphone isp as the connection for
programs which use internet access
that is already the case so it can't be that I'm afraid
I am having the same problem with my MDA Vario(KJam).
It tries to connect to GPRS even if i have wireless lan connected
anyone know how i can sort this
thanks
As noted in another post, simply creating a dummy gprs connection created a default conne tion instead of the telco gprs.
I have set up Wifi in my HP6965 to access the internet via proxy for "Work" connection, and direct to the Internet for my home Wifi router. I can connect to the Internet easily through Internet Explorer both at home and at work. But when I try to access pop mail (e.g. Yahoo), when I am connected to "Work", it tries to connect through GPRS Connection, not through Wifi. This is rather odd, as there is no such problem when I am connected at home, where it downloads my pop mail through the Wifi connection.
Any help will be appreciated.
on the desktop activesync app go to connection settings and try changing it to "automatic".
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).
I don't have wireless LAN ((
Thanks

if the pda is connected and my network is choosen as connection in

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
I have a HTC Touch 3G (Jade) running Windows Mobile 6.1, i have managed to set up the VPN connection with my work server, the phone connects to the server (although it does say the connection is not encrypted), but when i set Activesync going of the phone the server drops the VPN connection
I have read about adding the server address into the exceptions list, but this does not help.
Any assistance would be much appreciated
Thank you
think it could be because if
settings->connections->connections->advanced-selecet network is set
to my home network
that would make the device try and use the network connection it get access to from active-sync and drop the connection it is using to connect to vpn
I would turn of the ability to use the active-sync as network connection

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Thanks for the advice Rudegar
settings->connections->connections->advanced is set to;
Programs that automatically connect to internet = Mobile web
Programs that automatically connect to private network = My Work Network
I would try and change the later of the options
and maybe look in pc activesync for the ability to turn of network sharing
Help!!!!, still no joy
Does anyone know if it is because i am trying to connect to the VPN via a 'payasyougo' sim, having reads O2's info they only appear to talk about connections to VPN via 'pay monthly'?
Thanks
