Could someone help me, I am using WM 6.1. How do I get Internet Explorer Mobile or Opera mini to use my Wi-Fi connection instead of the cellular network. I tried to Google it but no luck.

Wi-Fi should be the preffered network over GPRS EDGE.
Someone will have a better answer than me, but what you can do is go to your GPRS setting in settings\connections\GPRS and change the GPRS from being on Internet to Work, not the greatest way but i use it to stop GPRS due to being on a very limited data package.

I put the GPRS connection to work, and i think its using my wifi connection now. Can Opera mini use the wifi connection or is it only GPRS, when i try to go to a site it might cost me airtime.

Mini can use wi-fi, the way you will tell not using GPRS is that above the signal bar u will not have a little g, not to be confused with the big G in the middle of top to which just says GPRS is available.
