Default Quick way to turn off wifi?

Has anyone got any good idea for setting up a quickly-accessible shortcut for turning the wifi connection on or off?

There's CommManager button on the keyboard that leed you to WiFi and other connections. I'm on the SPB Mobile Shell3. Try it and you find out that there can be everything you imagine on the screen. So have Wireless Manager right in fron of me.

Thanks - I hadn't noticed that.

Interesting that you're choosing to use SPB Mobile Shell 3 instead of TouchFlo - I was thinking of doing the same myself.

TF3D is definitely not bad and this last release is good. But MS3 is awesome, using this already since times of Kaiser. There is much more freedom and operativness with MS3. Worth of trying at least...

Have set long press on the "phone" key to Comms Manager, then you can twiddle wi-fi to your heart's content!

This program works great just one click on or off

This is one of the issues that I'd like to solve as well. One of the great capabilities of Nokia Symbian OS is that you can directly press on a bookmark for example and it will pop up a menu asking you to choose the way you want to connect (GPRS, WIFI access point, WAP, ...)

You just choose from it and there you go! Once you close the browser or the application that requires the internet connection it automatically stops wifi!

I find this setup great and it makes things much easier. Any way we can have such a setup on our beloved TP2?

That's affirmative!
The util, a great util by the way, is written for the Xperia, which has a WM bluetooth stack.
The Rhodium has a WidComm BT stack, so that's the only part that won't work.
