Ok, this was working fine on the original AT&T ROM, but since I flashed to dutty's ROM, I cant get it to work. How do I force the phone to use wifi for net access when wifi is turned on, as opposed to medianet? Currently, I have to keep manually switching from medianet to "my work connection" in connection settings.
You can use Kaiser Tweak to set it to disconnect the GPRS connection after a set amount of minutes of inactivity. Then, when you enable WiFi, it should connect ONLY to WiFi.
I think the OP needs to sort out his "work" and his "internet" instead of just trying to turn off radio data.
I have medianet set to internet and my wifi set to work...not really clear what "work" is....just want to automatically use wifi when wifi is connected, and cant find the option to do that.
Anybody???
I did set both connections to "work".
Additionally I added my tmobile gprs connection to the work profile.
All seems to work great.
I can acces my network shares over wifi and connect to the internet. When no wifi is available it connects via gprs.
I keep getting confused on this same issue. i installed the same rom we are talking about. it shows up for me when setting up email accounts. with my wifi turned on, it still tries to go out the 3g connection. I want it to use wifi if that is what is turned on and i think that was working on the death star rom. For the drop down that says "The Internet" I basically want that to point to wifi if on then fall back to 3g. How do we do that?
It should not be named "work".
So whats the solution here?
Under Connections....Select which networks are automatically used:
Programs that connect to the internet should connect using ???
I can either choose Medianet or my work network, I'd like for it to use wifi when available, how is this done?
Programs that connect to a private network should connect using ???
I have this set to my work network.
Easy Solution to 'Auto Wifi"
Buy an Iphone, works seemlessly, and you get a browser too which works, something these HTC phones havn't had in 3 years.
The easiest way to force wifi (since gprs can be acting as a ***** ), is to keep wlan enabled and to install the NOGPRS.cab (aka the modaco nodata plugin) which allows you to disable (but keep) the gprs settings and which you can toggle on (and back off) when needed.
Great little app, saves much annoyance!
Is there an easy way to toggle wi-fi on/off, that can be assigned to an icon or button? At the moment I have to open Comm Manager each time and do it from there.

Hello,
I don't know if the upgrade from WM6 to WM61 is the cause of my problem but I have noticed it after the upgrade.
Using my TyTN II on the road I have a connection with Vodafone GPRS.
If I switched the WiFi on at home the device automatically contected to my wireless router and the GPRS connection was disconnected.
After switching of the WiFi the GPRS connected again.
So, no use of GPRS data when connected to WiFi.
Now the GPRS connection doen not disconnect anymore when switching on the WiFi and having connecting to my router.
So, even with WiFi the GPRS data is used.
I need to switch of GPRS to use WiFi.
How it comes?

using the comm manager under settings. disable 3g and turn on wifi.
Hi,
Is it possible to make my HTC diamond attempt to connect to the internet through my Home WiFi connection before it connects via 3G.
Basically I want WiFi to be default and only to use 3G whilst i'm roaming about.
Cheers

If you turn your wifi on and set it up for your home network. then as long as the wifi is still on, it defaults to using that first. If your not at home just shut the wifi off
It's not perfect, but I haven't seen any other methods out there.
MoDaCo's NoData is what you need:

I have question about WiFi. Every time I turn off display (or turn off itself automaticaly), it disconnect from network but when I´m on ICQ then I cant recieve any message. Is possible to be connected permanently?
Have my N1 running the OTA update of Gingerbread to the extent it matters for this question. When I am at home I have it connect to my main router, but when I head out I'd like it to be connected to my portable router (PHS-300 turning my 4G Clear into 802.11g). Ideally I'd like to turn on the PHS-300 a bit before I go, and have the N1 automatically reconnect to that without having to manually disconnect it from the home router or wait until I'm out of range and then reconnect. This is particularly important as I am now using VOIP over my connection so that I don't have a separate cell phone bill anymore (thanks to Sipdroid, GV, and PBXes.org).
Is there a way to setup a "preferred" host? I don't want to make it "forget" the home connection since i use that daily as well.
Thanks in advance!
Sometimes I am connected to the home network but with no internet access.
In terminal I tried to ping my router, but with no success. I can use wireless home network/have internet access from other devices at the same time.
If I turn off WiFi and I can reach the internet by mobile network.
Looks like the phone thinks that it is connected to the network but it isn't.
I have solved the problem by forgetting the network and afterwards connecting to it again, but I would like to know why and how it happened.
