Hi i configured the wifi connection for my home and it's all ok
then i have with my phone company (3g Italy) internet connection included in subscription
but i want know what i set to change automatically the internet connection on the 3G when the wifi is not available.
Regards
Francesco
When no wifi connection is available, it should automatically revert to either 2g or 3g connection (whichever is available). If this doesn't work automatically, you can consider downloading and purchasing commmgrpro (www.commmgrpro.com) and using it to either turn wifi on when you are in a specific cel area (or time of day), or prioritize your data connections manually. There are lots of other features to this program - I find it indispensible.
Good luck.

So my laptops internal wireless card gave out, and while I don't mind using 3g.. wifi is a little faster, so is there a way to use that instead of 3g? I do not see it as an option in the internet sharing app.
thanks
hmm, i think ICS could do that.......... connect via wifi then connect ICS with USB or bluetooth..... hmm, i was thinking wmwifirouter could do it but i am not sure
already tried that. I think that wmwifirouter is for sharing 3g over wireless
simple..I do that all the time.
Turn off Data Connection
Turn On WiFi
Turn On Internet Sharing
..wah-la !
i tried that but under network connection wifi does not appear and it tries to connect to 3g?
I know we can simply connect my HTC via my wireless connection,
but is there a way, presumeably if we want to connect our phone
to the internet via PC. anyone care to share the tricks? thx.
Hi
I just finished setting up Wifi and it works perfect. Is there any way i can make the Diamond use the Wifi connection for programs if such connection exist? Currently it alwasy open a 3G connection even if Wifi is enabled, which kinda sucks, since 3G traffic dont come cheap
So what i want is, if Wifi connection exist use that, else open a 3G connection.
Best regards
Mads
Yes, there is a way. Just go to settings-->connectins tab-->connections-->advanced tab-->select networks and select the one you want to use.
In WIFI settings you have to select the same connection at the "connect to" option!

Hi demacus
Thanks for the reply, but I have some trouble following you guide. First in my Select networks I have to networks, “3” and “Arbejde”. 3 is the name of my ISP and the one that’s currently selected to be used by programs needing access to the internet. In my Wifi “Connect To” option I can’t select the “3” I can only select between “Arbejde” and “Internet” which is just to default networks.
So my question is still the same, how do I make the diamond use a wifi connection if one is present else enable a 3G connection and use that.
Best regards
Mads
Err... in my case, the way it works is.. if I connect to the Wifi, then 3g gets disabled for as long as I am connected to a Wifi network..
If Wifi is available and you ARE CONNECTED (just available isn't good enough, you have to be connected), my Touch Diamond doesn't use the 3G.

Select Connect to The Internet
Hey L o r d R a j
The Internet option i am talking about have a description saying that its for use when connection to a VPN connection. My Wifi is active and if i change the setting in the Connection tab to use "Mit Arbejdsnetværk" the wifi works perfect for the browser etc.
Not sure what I or the danish rom i have is doing wrong. But i cant get it to use the wifi if its there, if not use the 3G.
If anyone have any ideas please let me know, thanks
Best regards

Hello,
I have an problem. When i'm connected to Wifi and launch Opera, weather update or anything else which uses internet. The diamond makes connection with the 3G/GPRS network. The wifi is being ignored or something.
I thougt that i had seen this problem before on this forum, but i searched and can't find it anymore.
Does anybody know an solution or knows where i can find one?
Grtz
You can set network priority up somewhere, i'd be of more help but i don't remember where this is in settings
I have also been looking for a solution to set network priority as wlan first but cant find where to..

I've been reading this site a fair old bit recently! First time i've been influenced to post though. I'd also love a solution to this. Does anyone know how to change priority settings? I swear i'd turned GPRS off, but whenever I check the weather or internet, it connects, sometimes even when I have a wi-fi connection active.
I wish to only use my Diamond with the wi-fi, don't want to get raped on the data charges. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks.

That's the exact issue i have! Its bloody anoying!
how about using NoData or from Advance configuration utilities in comm manager actually disabling all other connections ? i've been confronted with the same problem many times and rather use the available Wi-Fi over the mobile internet connections, so that helped me
That's not good enough for me. I have a databundle so when i'm not at home i wanna use that internet. But when i'm at home i want wifi!
I think i found the problem. When you make a connection with a wifi network you can choose between "internet" and "work". When you choose internet there's nothing wrong. When you choose work it doesn't make some kind of internet connection so programs fall back to the gprs.
I'm having the same problems. I'm having a data subscription so don't want to disable it in total. What I tried was go to wifi settings --> network adapters. Selected internet from the drop down box on top (work was default for me). But Opera still connects through 3G or G. What settings did you change exactly Rik_X?
The settings that i changed is when you make a new wifi connection it asks if you want to connect as 'internet' or 'work'. You have to choose work.
With wifi networks allready configured you have to do the following:
Go to comm manager --> turn on WLAN and let it connect to the network --> then push settings --> Wireless LAN. Then go to Networkcards (in dutch its netwerkkaarten) (its under the SSID)
Then click on the connected network and change work into internet. Accept the setting and with a reconnect its works (for me)
Good luck

Dank je! This worked for me.
Moderators are working with the same
Hello everybody, I've searched on the forum, but I cannot find a solution to my problem. When I try to connect my iPad or my MacBook to the internet through my SGS I cannot surf the web. I mean, I can connect to the SGS via the wifi connection but it looks like there is no internet connection.. I am on Darky 7.0 rom. Is there any kind of setting which I have to make to be able to get an internet connection? Thanks for your help
Yeah, same issue with me.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Hope somebody has a solution...
Do you have a weak signal? I noticed when my signal is weak i can connect but the internet doesn't work.
No the signal is at the maximum but there is no internet connection..
any help?
I'm also having the same problem on 7.5 and 7.6. Maybe bring this up in his thread?
Edit: Im in an area with HSDPA for data too, but when I switch to tethering via wifi or even USB, it doesn't switch to HSDPA. And it wont let me browse the net from a PC. Browsing within the phone works fine.
check your APN settings if they are correct
If my APN settings won't correct I wouldn't be able to browse from the handset itself, which I can do no problem. Its only when I tether.
