Hello
When I'm using Wifi, on the top of the screen there is an icone with a "W" saying that if I loose the Wifi signal, it will connect via GPRS.
But, I want to control my GPRS connection and consequently control the way that this option is configured in my Qtek: so it will not connect via GPRS if I loose Wifi signal.
Do you know how to proceed?
Thanks.
Same question!
I just add myself to this, with the same question.

Same here
Somehow my SIM card was associated with an old GPRS plan from several years ago.... at 25€ per MB!!! How do I turn this off before it costs me another 100 €?

To the person with the SIM Card issue and the high GRPS Charges:
Shouldnt you be contacting your Service Provider and asking them to take you off this plan?
This won't be anything you can do with the hardware.
Maybe an acceptable workaround :
I configured the connection settings
start->settings->connections -> advanced
select networks : both drop-down boxes are set to
"my work network"
This prevents the automatic gprs connections.
If you want gprs you can use the wireless manager
(start->programs->wireless manager)
and there tap the red gprs icon
configuring Wifi as the default Internet connection
Dear Paranoid
Thanks -- your tip did the trick. I was frustrated looking for a solution,
received endless (and usekess) advice such as" turn on the flight mode" :evil: or even worse "you should remove the SIM" :evil:
Once again Thank You!

Sometimes I try to access the Internet with a WiFi connection. Regardless of that, a GPRS connection is always dialed. How do I control this?
Thanks.
GPRS is always disabled unless set to your primary Internet connection, I hear most people cannot get GPRS to connect with Wm5 because there is no connection option, there is a little nifty program called "GPRS Monitor" it lets you connect/disconnect, and allow you to control your in/out usage, with reports, etc. I've uploaded it @ www.zevink.com in downloads/useful_apps, it has a serial number with it =). I hope this answers for what your looking for.
I've just purchased my O2 Xda IIs and am wondering if there is a way to do this:
IE seems to be one of the programs that automatically connect to Internet using the first default in Network Management.
Is there a way to force it to use the network connection of my choice?
Here's my problem?
When I'm in field, I want to use Optus GPRS Internet settings. (This is slow and doesn't work well in office due to poor reception.)
When I'm in the office, I want to automatically use My Work Network which is wireless.
In order to force IE to use My Work Network, when indoors I must manually change settings in Settings/Connections/Connections/Advanced/Select Networks
This is time consuming and something you sometimes forget to do when moving from field to office quickly.
Thanks!

When I turn on Wifi, it automatically changes my selection from MTCTouch WAP (my WAP provider) to My ISP, which works because I use a default gateway and not a proxy server.
Anyway, I'd love to be able to make it automatically select a network of my choice, or even switch IP address depending on which Wifi network I'm connected to. Does anyone know of this?
Hi I want to know if it is possible to set the device to use the available WIFI network and if not available then to use the GPRS to connect to internet?
In the connection setting\Select Networks: The network management tab has two settings 1) Internet and 2) Private network
If I use 1= GPRS and 2= my home network, all the internet access is managed by the gprs even if I am already connected to the wifi network.
Is this by design or I have something not configured properly?
Any feed back is appreciated.
the ppc will default to wifi if it is available. if no wifi is detected it should fall back to the 3G/2.5G connection.

Hi!
Off course it is possible to set the device to use the available WIFI. U do that by just setting WIFI on by commanager and go on. U need not GPRS to connection.
Search a little bit in this forum u gona find hundreds of explanation for your Q
Thanks samw52000 and Abo Forat for the replies.
I am able to achieve what i requested.
I was actually setting up the gprs setting first and then configuring the my work network as two separate entries.
Thanks
Hi, small question...
Is there a setting to make my mail automatically sync as soon as it is connecting to a wifi network.
I give an example... i come home, my tp2 logs on to my wifi and automatically checks my emails...
For the moment i still have to do it manually...
Any tips from you pro's outhere?
It must only check trough WIFI not via 3g or mobile internet
