i saw it some where ... , you can change from 80kb gprs internet to 1mb wifi internet ...
but i forgot where i saw it , i researched it without success , where i can to find this option?
GPRS is CELLPHONE internet. It uses the cellphone service from your carrier to gain internet access (your cellphone service company will charge you for that. Dont ask me how much)
WiFi is wireless LAN. You know how laptops can connect to the internet wirelessly? That's using WiFi, which comes from a nearby wireless router (usually no further than 100 meters awy)
You need to have a wireless router at home, such as Linksys WRT54G or D-Link DI-524 or whatever else. Those things connect to a wired internet connection like a Cable Modem or a DSL modem. You cant just access WiFi from your cellphone anywhere. You need to be close to a wireless router, and be ALLOWED access to it (because they are very often password protected).
Only the GPRS is accessible from anywhere with cellphone signal.
Note : You probably will be able to get EDGE, which is the same as GPRS, but faster (in between 150-220kbps)
no bro ... , its not gprs options ... ,
I did changed it one time ago ... , now i forgot where it is.
Change from 80kb to wifi\lan ... , there some option like that ...
Its just give you surf faster in wifi mode.
no "bro"
you cant magically switch from GPRS to WiFi unless you got a WiFi network near you.
On the Comm Manager, you can turn gprs off and turn wifi on...not sure if that's what your asking.
You didn't got me ,
I can to surf on wifi networks , but by default just on 80kb , so i saw some option you can change it to 1mb from 80kb surfing .
so you can surf the internet on pocket very very more faster then its on 80kb,now i did hard reset and this setting gone away...
I need to find him again...

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 ..

How do you select what network connection to use? 99% of the time I only ever want the phone to connect to the internet over Wifi (or bluetooth/cable connection to the computer) and not using Cingular's network. There is the occasional time that I would like to enable that but most of the time I want to only use the Wifi. Where can I set so it doesn't connect to Cingular accidentally (say if I'm out of Wifi range or hit the wrong button) so i don't get large data charges?
Thanks
In connexion option set default internet connexion as "my work network" and privat network default as "my work network" as well.
So lemme just confirm something - unless I configure server settings on the a HTC TyTN (using stock rom) on the Cingular network - it will not be able to use Cingulars network right? The only time I will be able to access the internet with the phone is over wifi, bluetooth connection (or USB) with an internet enabled computer. Otherwise the internet will not function and I will not be charged data charges correct?
I don't really ever find myself using the internet on a phone when I'm away from home so I can't justify the expense of the data service but I work on a few websites that I'd like to look good on a cellphone so that's my main reason for wanting internet access on it - so while I'm at work I can log into the wifi system and test the site while I'm tweaking the code.
Am I correct in assuming that I shouldn't be charged under this situation?
Hi, I'm on Vodafone and I made the changes fun_key posted without noting down the original settings. Please can someone tell me what the default settings are for internet connection and private network connection. Thanks
Apologies but I am verynew to the Atom and networking. Could somebody please assist with a simple to follow list of steps for me to connect to the internet at an internet cafe. I turn on the wifi and it will generally stay on for a short time but when I try to use internet explorer to get to gmail (or any other site) it comes back with a message that the connection was lost. I know there was no problem with the wireless connection in the cafe as my pc was downloading at the time. many thanks
Hi,
First of all, are you able to connect to the Internet from your device at home?
....or is it the case that you don't have an access point at home and simply want to connect to the Internet from an Internet cafe or WiFi hotspot?
Generally, if you have correctly configured (set-up) your Atom correctly, to connect, using WiFi, that setup should still work outside of your home, assuming you have a free WiFi hotspot. The only difference being that this time, it is not using your own access point. All you need to do is simply to connect (as you were doing).
The same goes with an Internet cafe, as long as the routers in the Internet cafe are setup to allow connectivity from un-named devices (such as your Atom), in adition to connectivity from their own specific computers (hence you were able to download, using the computers at the Internet Cafe).
The keyword here is OPEN - be it at an Internet cafe, WiFi hotspot or whatever. It's got to be open (and free), before you can connect and surf the Internet, like you were trying to do.
Failing that, you'll have to subscribe to the service provider before you can use their WiFi hotspot (e.g. at an Internet cafe, Macdonald's, hotel, airport) or any other public place.
Your device should be able to see all nearby networks. It should also indicate the strength of the signal according to the number of bars next to the network. Additionally, it will show, by way of a padlock, that it is a secure network. No padlock means it is an open one.
If there are open networks within your vicinity that do not require authentication, with a strong signal, then all you need to do is to click connect and you're on - away and surfing.
However, if the signal is weak, (assuming that it does not require authentication), then, you simply would not be able to connect to that network.
Try and figure out from here, as to why you weren't able to connect at the Internet Cafe.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
I need some help about my htc hd.
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

Does the VPn connection you are connecting to allow access to the internet without a proxy? If not, you are not getting to the internet from your phone ever.
the connection i used is HSPDA form the mobile oprater and also i trayed to use a wifi connction in the office and both are allawing connecting to the internet without proxy and as i sid when the VPN is connected the market is accessible for 2 second wich allaw me to enter for example entertarment section then connection blocked.
