Hi all,

I have an XDAII from the Spanish carrier Movistar (TSM500). I want the device to access internet. I have WIFI in my office, so I would like to use this infrastructure in the device instead of GPRS.
I have a SDIO card from SOCKET that works correctly with the device and I can connect internet via proxy.
I would like to know how must I configure the connection settings in order to make it transparent. I mean, if there is WIFI the device must use WIFI it not the device has to use GPRS.

Does anybody know the settings I must to apply to the device network configuration (work,internet…) in order to get this WIFI, GPRS priorities?

Thanks and regards from Spain

...and to make your question more complicated, to setup wifi with proxy, gprs with no proxy and mms connection with no proxy. All these together?

so be it - manemoi

Hey Manemoi, that's EXACTLY What I would like!
Is there a way to have the Magician choose this automatically? For instance, I can use my Sandisk SD WiFi 256 only when I set both my ISP and Work settings to an emtpy profile. It then seems to know it should use the WiFi connection available. I can then Internet, send mail Everything! Perfect! When I take out my WiFi card and activate my Active Synch with BlueTooth, it works too, Can internet over Active Synch without problems. But Mail will connect but then not send mail for some reason...
Whenever I want to use GPRS, I gave to goto connections and then manually change the modems there for ISP to my GPRS Modem Setting. Isn't there an easier way? Can't Internet explorer be told to use whatever conection available? Instead of ALWAYS connection to whatever is set under the My ISP setting?
