I have 2 sims and configured 2 different operator gprs config in my wm5 smartphone.
I noticed that wm5 smartphone will only recognized the latest configured gprs profile. Any ways to enable the previous gprs profile rather than only use the latest configured gprs ?
Thanks

Does anyone know how setup Qteq 9310 or similar device to auto pick GPRS connection from GPRS list.
My problem: T-Mobile in Croatia have Access point: "web.htgprs." but when I leave country and use phone in Roaming, for GPRS I need connect to "web.htgprs" (without dot at the end).
So I create two GPRS connections, and my idea is that phone tray connect to first, and if not connect, they tray connect to next from the list.
On MDA devices, there are "Auto pick" options, on smartphone there is not this options .
Anyone know some solutions (registry change, applications, ...)?
thanks,
Mario.
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.
In order to use the treo 750v as a 3G/UMTS modem for a laptop using the bluetooth link between the laptop and the treo, I believe that a modem initialisation string has to be added in the configuration on the laptop so as to use the modem under 3G/UMTS speeds as opposed to a GSM speed. I have seen some such initialisation strings but do not know whether these are valid for 3G/UMTS. Does anyone have the valid string?

You don' t have to enter a string in the modem settings. With WM6 just select on the Treo the GPRS APN in Start >> Programs >>> Internetsharing:
PC-Connection: Bluetooth
Network connection: your profile defined in settings >>> connection >>> connections
If you want to use a string in the modem settings on your laptop, enter
at+cgdcont=1,"IP","xxx"
(xxx is the APN of your mobile operator
thank you for your information
When the connection is established (which I have done using the string you gave me) is there any indication on the Treo 750 that one is in UMTS/3G? I have established the connection but nothing changes on the Treo 750's display, which usually, when one connects in UMTS/3G , (for instance when the Internet Explorer is launched) usually shows the little "G" and reverse arrows as having set up a UMTS/3G or GPRS connection. (I have used your string as I don't have WM6 yet - I understand that the WM6 has been launched in Australia but not yet for unlocked Treo 750's and that the modified ROM for such an unlocked Treo is not yet available, so I can not use the WM6 method, still having WM5 on my Treo). In other words, does one have any sign that the string you supplied has effectively set up the link from the Treo to the provider ("Orange" in my case) in UMTS/3G or GPRS and that one is not still in GSM
This string is only useable for GPRS/UMTS.
Whether you connect via GSM or GPRS/EDGE/UMTS is triggered by two things:
First what is configured on the Treo in settings >> connections. There must be a cellular line (GPRS,3G) connection with the Orange APN.
Second what is configured in the dial up connection on your laptop.
There must be a dial up number like *99# or *99***1#
When you use these two settings you are always connected via GPRS (or EDGE if Orange supports that) or UMTS.
Hi there,
I have a question about an annoying problem that I've only managed to find one (unanswered) question to on the web.
I have an HTC Touch HD (WM6.1) which I use to read email from my Hotmail account, amongst other things. The problem is that the messaging client ALWAYS tries to download my mail via 3G/GPRS even when there's a WiFi connection available. This occurs both when I initiate the send/receive using TouchFlo 3D or from within the mail client.
Connection manager is, as far as I'm aware, configured correctly, and PIE/Opera/weather will all happily use WiFi to connect to the internet, only using my data connection when WiFi isn't available.
The same results occur with connection manager configured in either of the following ways:
Internet Connection = "My ISP" settings with 3G modem connection
Work Connection = Default "My Work Network" settings
WiFi Access Point = Connects to Internet
Network Card = Connects to Internet
OR
Internet Connection = "My Work Network" with 3G modem connection and "This network connects to the internet" enabled
Work Connection = As Internet Connection
WiFi Access Point = Connects to Work
Network Card = Connects to Work
Interestingly, if I disable my data connection and enable WiFi I CAN send/receive mail over the WiFi connection, so it seems like the data connection is being used in preference to the WiFi one.
Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong?!
Thanks,
Mike
What´s the version of your ROM?
Is the device labeld by Vodafone?
There is an option when setting up the email account in pocket outlook to select the preferred connection for the account. It is in one of the advanced options pages when setting up the account. Normally it is setup for THE INTERNET so your WiFi adapter should point to the same.
Now, I use a little Mortscript to switch-on the WiFi and immediately change my Network Selection to NO DATA, which is just an empty setting (no internet connection). This effectively shutdowns the GPRS / 3G connection and pocket outlook has to use the WiFi route.
Hi
There are some firewall available. I already only only tried Airscanner Firewall and I didn't see the feature I need in it. I would like to been able to block the specific network adapter. GPRS/EDGE transfer is very expensive in my country and would like to block all traffic on "cellular line" network adapter and leave wlan network adapter untouched to use only it. Are there any good firewalls for WM? I find a solution to for my problem to set not using GPRS totally but rarely I would like to browse some page via GPRS so firewall with that option will be faster then unlocking GPRS in settings.
WM6.5 and HTC Touch2
Cheers
For this you do not need a firewall , tap start>>settings>>connections>>connections, and then tap the 'advanced' tab,, after that tap the 'select network' button, and then you know what to do.
Cheers
Edit:If you still want to use cellular connection occasionally, you can appoint a specific browser, set it to use the phone connection. For example, you can install opera mobile 9.7 & 10 two versions, they can coexist on the phone. while 9.7use wifi & 10version uses gsm/3g network.
Just install MoDaCo NoData and you can disable all connections using GPRS
