Automatically turn on WIFI when there is no EDGE/GRPS coverage and making WIFI take priority over cell connection

Submitted by jbmessamore on Wed, 12/04/2006 - 01:20. General | Networking

Two issues:

1. Is there a way to have the Wizard turn on WIFI when there is no EDGE/GRPS coverage. In many buildings, I do not have service, but would like my device to access the wireless network to download my e-mail. I don't want to leave WIFI on all the time, but I also do not want to manually activate it each time I enter a zone with no service. Is there any solution you can think of?

2. When WIFI and EDGE/GPRS are available, the device frequently wants to use the cell connection over the WIFI connection. How can I make WIFI the default connection when it is available?

Thanks!

WiFi as Default

I have the Cingular 8125......Cingular claims that you can remove the proxy server tag and access the Net using WiFi as the default....yet every time I tried that, my phone would connect via GPRS. I was only able to set the WiFi as the default by removing all connections except for the "Work" connection.

WiFi connections

I had a great deal of effort making my 8125 connect to wifi as default.

I used "Hitchhiker" to sort out my network problems (available here)

It allowed me to connect successfully to a network and then add it to a "Trusted Networks" list. After that it connects as long as the network is available. (sometimes i drop connection but thats a problem with the access point not my wizard.)

I have a TMO MDA Vario and I'm still having major issues making WiFi overide GPRS. I'm using Hitchhiker (which seems to spazz if the network does not broadcast SSID) (and TMO doesnt use proxy) and it still take the device about 4 or 5+ mins to realize it has a faster WiFi sitting there...any suggestions?

ok, so i am trying to install hicthhiker on my 8125, but i get an error when i try and run saying he framework is not up to date. so i downloaded it from here [http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9655156b-356b-4a2c-857c-e62f50ae9a55&displaylang=en].

When I try and run it while my phone is connected to my PC it says it is already installed (i think it is seeing the one on my PC, and not my phone).

Anyone have any suggestions?
