am i right? can someone correct me?
Hi.
Just so you know providers in all countries charge for GPRS and they usually charge a lot unless you commit to a contract so you are not alone .
But seriously, using WiFi on your device is fairly simple:
on the left side you should have a button for 'comm manager' (little circle with waves). Press that and you will see a window with buttons to turn WiFi BT and other stuff on and of.
Also you can activate WiFi from Start->Settings->Connections.
WiFi in it self is not free internet access. It is just a wireless way to connect to a local network (you understood that part correctly).
Now, if the network you are connected to is also connected to the internet and set up so any computer on it has access it, then you can serf.
If this really is a free public access point then all you have to do is turn on WiFi on your phone, wait for it to find the network and pop up a question 'This network connects to: Internet / Work'. Select internet and thats it.
If the network is secure you will be automatically prompted for a key.
And thats is. If you have any specific questions let us know.
thanks now i know...
many places connecting to an home wifi without the prop security
is ilegal as the owner will be held responsible for any ilegal stuff the wifi litch

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...

Hi guys!
I found a lot of programs to share the gprs conection via wifi (converting the hd on a hotspot) but I want to share not a gprs conection ,just the internet I get via usb activesync... I was not able to make this happen with any know program.
Someone know how this can be done?
"wmwifirouter" require a conection to be dialed/conected and don't take into account activesync one.
So in short you want to use your phone as a Wireless Access Point when connected to and accessing the Internet through the USB port of the computer?
I don't think it can be done, I don't think you can have WiFi and USB on at the same time.
EDIT: Just checked and it seems you can have both at the same time.
if u want to use the internet connection of your pc via wifi, u need no programs but i only have to configure properly the wifi network card on htc and enabling internet sharing on pc's wifi connection
Mustn't you rather activate the internet sharing on the phone ?
I am with the provider Orange in France.... and the internet sharing is normally forbidden. I would like to use the phone as a wifi access point without the usb.
Can Orange see that I have activated that internet sharing ?
I would also like to do this! Particularly at work. I can connect my phone to my work computer via activesync and check email etc. It would be great to be able to share this connection with my laptop via the "wm wifirouter" or another app. Please let us know if you discover a solution - I will also investigate.

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
