Hi people. Does anyone know of a program that monitors the dialup connection time? I have 300 CSD wap minutes free each month and I'll like to be able to keep an eye on how much I've used. I've tried Spb GPRS monitor but its not very good for it seeing as I'm not trying to monitor GPRS wap. Thanks in advance.

Hi all - i have my xda mini s setup to connect to the internet and collect my exchange emails all works fine.
i use it at work + at home a lot and both locations have a wifi broadband network.
i would like my xda mini s to only connect to GPRS for web browsing and emails when a stored wifi network is not in range (eg when im on the road)
Is it possible to enter in this preference anywhere? thanks in advance for any help
Actually, as far as PIE or any program that connects to the internet is concerned WiFi takes precedence over GPRS by default.
The problem is MS push mail. It forces GPRS even if WiFi is connected. If you try to serf to a graphics heavy site wile connected to both GPRS and WiFi you will see the speed difference.
I am not sure what the logic behind this MS stupidity is, and unfortunately I don't know of any cure except deleting the GPRS settings.
hi - and thanks.
damn.
well i did have a qucik test i went on the web and it seemed to be connecting to gprs (while i was already connected to a wifi network)
i will have a play.
There's one other thing I forgo to mention:
When connection to WiFi make sure you select the correct value under "This network connects to".
I assume your GPRS settings are under My ISP and that is what's selected in Settings->Connections->Connections->Advanced->Network selection.
You should then select "The internet" for the WiFi network.
Hi everyone!

Hi,
Just a simple connection question,
What is the difference between the preset WAP connection and an internet connection?
Thanks
Marc
Hello.
In general, with wap only connection you can just browse pages and use applications that support http proxy (if your carrier has wap 2.0 support, but it should support that)
With an internet connection you get full internet, including: POP3/SMTP/IMAP, IM, telnet, etc etc.
In other words, wap access has internet ports blocked. In general only the http(s) port is open (eg: 8000, 8080.. 443 for https)
Thanks for the reply
Do they both use 3G/GPRS to connect?
Marc
No problem
normally Yes.
In general, the big limitation is available open ports, like I've said earlier. And maybe the maximum speed. Also the response time may be affected because the data pass thru additional proxy, but in 3G is not that noticeable (as I've observed).
The connection is defined by an apn (access point name). My operator has "wap" for wap acces and "internet" for full internet. This differ from network to network.
G'look!
Is there any decent app for monitoring bandwidth on WM6 devices?
I'm on an 'unlimited' data contract that has a fair usage policy of 1GB. As I regularly use my phone (HTC Touch Pro on T-Mobile UK) with my laptop (Lenovo X61) to connect to the net, I need to monitor how much bandwidth I'm using via the phone. As I also use the laptop via wirless LAN and LAN at home, installing the software on my laptop won't give me a true representation of how much data is going through the phone.
Ideally I'm looking for something with the features of Netlimiter to monitor and restrict if necessary.
Any suggestions?
There's really nothing out there?
Surely plenty of people have a capped data limit?
You can use SPB GPRS Monitor.
edit: seems like somebody edited there post and took my answer lol
Hi. I was just wondering if there is some way to dissallow connection types other than Wi-Fi to connect to the internet on WM 6.5? The reason i want this is because i don't have an unlimited data plan and i sometimes forget that i aren't connected to the internet through Wi-Fi and the greedy telephone company charges me money...
Thanks alot!
