I have just got an XDA IIi on which I wish to use the WiFi connection to connect to the internet.

All works fine EXCEPT when the page that I want to visit begins with "wap."

In that case the $£%$£"%$% thing refuses to download the page unless I connect via GPRS.

How can I make it connect to all pages over the WiFi connection?

TIA
Regards
Paul

I've got an idea, however it's untested...
Go to Settings - Connections - Connections and pursue any "WAP networks". Wherever it says "Connect to my WAP network" choose "Internet" instead.

I didn't really think the Evil Operators still try to bite off your account with WAP...

Hi Koterpillar,
thanks fo rthe suggestion but unfortunately it didn't work.

I have managed to fix it though. I went to the Exceprions box and put * in as an exception, so now everything goes through the wifi internet link fine.

But now I have a new problem which I don't think will be as easy to fix.

I will start a new thread on that one.

Thanks for taking an interest.
