So i just installed Nodata and im wondering which ones i disable so that i will not get charged for data. There are four options Cingular GPRS, CSD Cingular, My ISP CSD, and My ISP GPRS. I know for sure to disable Cingular GPRS but do i need to disable any of the other ones?
all works
I just use them all and it works fine. The only way I want to access the web is through wi-fi because it is free on my home router or wherever I can connect. I don't want to be hostage to my cell phone provider's media package rates. Modaco did a great job making this little app for us!

Hi all,
I have an XDAII from the Spanish carrier Movistar (TSM500). I want the device to access internet. I have WIFI in my office, so I would like to use this infrastructure in the device instead of GPRS.
I have a SDIO card from SOCKET that works correctly with the device and I can connect internet via proxy.
I would like to know how must I configure the connection settings in order to make it transparent. I mean, if there is WIFI the device must use WIFI it not the device has to use GPRS.
Does anybody know the settings I must to apply to the device network configuration (work,internet…) in order to get this WIFI, GPRS priorities?
Thanks and regards from Spain
...and to make your question more complicated, to setup wifi with proxy, gprs with no proxy and mms connection with no proxy. All these together?
so be it - manemoi
T,
Exactly!
Hey Manemoi, that's EXACTLY What I would like!
Is there a way to have the Magician choose this automatically? For instance, I can use my Sandisk SD WiFi 256 only when I set both my ISP and Work settings to an emtpy profile. It then seems to know it should use the WiFi connection available. I can then Internet, send mail Everything! Perfect! When I take out my WiFi card and activate my Active Synch with BlueTooth, it works too, Can internet over Active Synch without problems. But Mail will connect but then not send mail for some reason...
Whenever I want to use GPRS, I gave to goto connections and then manually change the modems there for ISP to my GPRS Modem Setting. Isn't there an easier way? Can't Internet explorer be told to use whatever conection available? Instead of ALWAYS connection to whatever is set under the My ISP setting?
I'd be interested if you ever got an answer to this as I am now at the same point

Anyon e work this out?
What are you guys using to connect to the internet? I can do everything I want with T-zones unlimited, using the proxy... however, if I use the proxy, I can't connect to wi-fi because it wants to try to connect thru the proxy. What services are you using and what are your settings?
Thanks,
Danny
i will use
I wont get my MDA till monday according to UPS, but when i get it i plan on getting the Total Internet plan for 29.99. it includes GPRS, EDGE and Hot Spots. That is the plan the tmobile is advertizing with this phone.
I have the T-Mobile total internet package. I am not using the proxy server, and it connects to Hotspot just great.
However, I have not tried to access T-Zones. Well, I tried once, and got a network solutions 'page coming soon' thing. I doubt I have it correct. lol
hot spot
how does the hot spot autentication work?
im assuming they made it so i wouldnt be able to just put in my username and password on my laptop and log it into a hotspot.
I have unlimited internet 19$ plan.
I don't use any proxy server.
I don't think you can use the regular t-zone on this phone ($9 plan).
Otherwise all good, just use: internet2.voicestream.com in the gprs setup and the rest emty.
my 5.99 tmobileweb with proxy works very well with any website using internet explorer mobile. it doesn't work, however, with outlook or any other mail client or application that doesn't know how to use proxy. i'm glad that virtual earth 1.5 works well even with my tmobileweb plan.
as for the problem that the original poster described, in the connection settings, i created a connection especially for wifi. and to switch between wifi and tmobileweb, i go to 'select networks' and choose which ever connection i want in the two drop-down lists that i have.
Proxy Setup
msafi,
What are the settings for setting up the proxy? I used the proxy with my Nokia 6600 just fine, but, cannot get it to work on the MDA Wizard.
Thanks, SK
I'm connected, get an IP address, have hard-coded the DNS addresses to my SDIO wireless, set my network cards to "Work", but I still can't get anywhere through my wireless connection.
Tried tweaking registry between B/G and my router from mixed to G only.
No combination seems to work that I can find.
Cingular 8125 - base rom, Linksys 54G router.
Any ideas? I'm sure that I'm missing something but have no clue what.
Thanks.

Try changing the MediaNet connection to My ISP. That's in Select Networks on the Advanced tab of the Connections system setting.
Wouldn't that just re-connect it to MediaNet, though? While it may work, that doesn't sound like what I'm trying to accomplish. Just had to hard-reset anyway. Re-installing apps now. Maybe that will make a difference. All of the tweaks have been removed.
-Pete
Try switching the power up to maximum
I have a T-Mobile MDA and I got this a few times, until I switched the WiFi power level up to maximum - now it always connects *and* can transfer data.

My interpretation of this issue is that MediaNet is a Cingular Proxy which won't allow connections that don't originate on Cingular's network (they don't want to be a proxy for the Internet at large). In the case of a WiFi connection, your public IP would not be on Cingular's network so your proxy settings in the MediaNet connection would be a black hole. Try the My ISP setting to see if that affects anything.

Still don't understand why people are having so many problems.
If you hard-reset the device then LEAVE EVERYTHING the way it is. The only thing you need to do is disable the Cingular proxy.
I got my 8125 2 hours before I had to run to the airport, all I did was remove the proxy (in the taxi to the airport) and when I got to the airport I was surfing on the airport wifi with no issue. Wifi has never given me a problem...just don't overcomplicate things.
That did it. I went into the Connections - Advanced tab, Network Settings. Changed Internet connection from MEdiaNet to Work and connected my WiFi. I was able to browse and sync.
I've placed it back for now because I want to use MediaNet when I'm not near a WiFi connection.
Just need to check on IE to see if I can change it to use Work before Internet.
That was the hint I needed. Now I just need to try it at home.
Thanks for the help.

hey all,
Quick question, is it possible to block the D810 from using Optus 3G network to connect to the net?
I only want to use Wifi due to the charges that optus dish out when using their network.
Any ideas?
Thanks heaps
Hello,
I had the same problem with the 3G because when I open a internet explorer, it connects automatically to the 3G network.
The solution is on the forum : take a program named Bandswitch that allows you to turn off 3G, HSDPA, GPRS etc. That will save you some money and autonomy for your Trinity
hey,
thanks for the reply.
Does the program also stop connection to send MMS though?
thanks
ok cancel the question.
I actually called Optus (and the guy was helpful!!! OMG!!) all sorted.
Just deleted the Optus setting in the ISP and that is all, still can send MMS's but no net access.
thanks.
For anyone else interested, the answer to the earlier post is that Bandswitch can be set to allow/disallow each of the connections individually, so you can block the Mobile Internet APN, but still allow MMS and/or WAP depending on how things are configured by your Telco.
does any one know how to get free internet on a tmobile wing without already have the internet.
Either get a data plan or connect via wifi. Thats it.
i tried the wifi it it wont work for some reason
what rom are you using?
do you need permission from the network to log on?
Check you security?
Depending on how long you have had T-Mobile service it use to be T-Zones, T-Mobile Web and today is web2go. I continue to have T-Mobile Web at $5.99. Okay, the only changes you need to concern yourself with web2go is the APN; it is no longer wap.voicestream.com and configure the proxy. Today it is simply; epc.tmobile.com and you don't have to bother doing anything else except download the Network .CAB or do it manually yourself. Today there are more data plans than you can shake a stick at and the bottom line, they are more expensive today than before and you may have to experiment with what works for you.
The $5.99 plan works fine. It's not 3G, but EDGE is faster now that it is on the updated APN. There is the HotSpot Utility for places like Starbucks and airports and finally there is Wi-Fi. If you're using strictly a "wired" access router you will need to buy a way to make your connection wireless. If like AT&T's 2Wire routers which like mine are wireless check to see if your security is enabled. My 2Wire965 came defaulted enabled but can be disabled. If enabled you're going to need that information and add those settings to your Wing/Herald which will prompt you for those settings once you configure wi-fi via the communication manager.
I hope this helps; take care!
