Concurrent GPRS and WiFi connections

Hi all,
I am writing an app in which both the WiFi connection and GPRS connection are available for use at the same time. I am working on a WinMobile 6 HTC Wizard in USA on T-Mobile network.
When I have both connections open, I am able to access the WiFi but not the GPRS (faster connection I imagine). Does anybody have any ideas on how I could leverage using both connections, binding sockets on each?
Any help in this area is greatly appreciated. I don't know much about the CommManager in WinMobile, but if anybody knows any way for me to *possibly* be able to use both connections, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance,
Nick
As far asa I know, WM defaults to the strongest connection available, but some apps are very stubborn about using the WiFI unless it's the only thing available. I'm not a PPC developer, so I'm sorry I can't offer any more insight, but there should be no reason that you couldn' code your app to use both of the connections.
i dont think that is even possible in my opinion but that would drain the battery fast.
I'm definitely wrong by calling it the CommManager, thats just the user interface on WM to select which communications you want open. I meant ConnManager, which is the Connection Manager, which I've learned about here:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb416435.aspx
I do think its possible, but unclear how to access the Connection Manager API. If anyone has any background with programming using the Connection Manager API, I'd greatly appreciate some help in the form of example source code. Also, if anyone has ported a C++ library to C# before, I could use some assistance with that. The Connection Manager API is in the connmgr.h file which I've attached here, and I want to be able to use it in C#. I wish to use this on the mobile device and don't know exactly the best way to go about doing this.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Nick

gprs question

That's the problem of the application you use...
Most applications can connect to GPRS automatically when needed.

WM6 Network Priority

I am trying to configure network rules on a Tytn Kaiser.
I would like any application trying to access the internet try the wireless connection first, and if not available, use mobile sevices (e.g. 3G) instead.
I'm guessing this must be easy, but I can't find any information regarding it.
Cheers.

Program to Block Data Connection from certain program

Hi,
jUst wondering if anyone knows a prgram out there that can prevent certain program/s to use internet (grps, edge, hdspda. , wifi )
Cheers,
Just use this one here http://www.pocketpc.ch/attachments/...daco-nodata-internetverbindung-aus-nodata.zip and you'll be fine!
hi, thanks alot 2SWIFT
but that is not exactly what i need.
I require an app/tool which allows most programs to use data connection, except A FEW nominated ones.
so i can put certain programs to never download data. Sort of like a Block/Ban List.
Any ideas anyone?

App that control which apps can use 3g/edge and wifi

Is there any app that can control which apps are allowed to use 3g/edge to connect to the Internet and which are only allowed to do that when wifi is available?
Yes me too want to know how to restrict data download.
Thank you.
IMO, an app that manages all permissions would be even better. I haven't heard of any such apps but hopefully someone can come up with something.
can I somehow restrict all data transfers? I have no data tarif from my mobile operator and allmost everywhere I am i have free wifi connection (so I want use wifi).
Thank you
"Tasker" may be able to help, it can control your settings based on all kinds of scenarios. I have my mobile data disabled and use Tasker to enable it when certain apps start (internet, email, etc), it will disable it automatically when you close that app (needs apndroid installed). I do the same with GPS.
Tasker gives you loads of options and control, you can create custom widgets and automatic profile switching.

droidwall may be of interest to you guys, it blocks all apps to connect to 3g/edge unless you specify the app in the droidwall whitelist
note: Droidwall does require root
Would appreciate to know where to get the "Tasker" you mentioned.
Thank you.
I can find Tasker in the market, but I first found it on androlib. I use it to disable ´mobile data' during the night.
