Hiya

I've looked in the previous topics but can't find anything about this...

What happens is this... I sync my xda2 onto my pc and it downloads various bits n bobs from the net through the pc connection (weatherpanel etc). If I disconnect my phone from the cradle and then the weatherpanel program tries to connect, it tries to connect through WAP Network GPRS (as set up in the auto config when the xda2 is first installed)...this never seems to work.

If I change the net connection from My Work to My ISP it's great - it will connect MOBILE WEB GPRS when it's not cradled and download the data. Unfortunately if I then reconnect to the cradle it recognises the activesync connection but then tries to redial my gprs connection instead of going through the pc connection.

What trick am I missing? Put simply I wish it to have one profile (that i don't have to keep changing) where when it's docked it goes through my pc net connection, and when carrying it around it knows to connect to the mobile web gprs.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks
Anthony

Try to use Auto Pick option in the connection settings (must have both connections in the same group)

Give this a try:

Start > Settings > Connections > Connections > Advanced > Select Networks >

then set both drop down menus to My ISP.

Hope this works.
