I´m new to this xda-world and got my first HTC Touch Cruise.
Is it possible to set preferred connection when going online? Is there a setting that tells the phone to use Wi-Fi when possible, and just use GPRS when no other connection is availible.
That works as standard. If it detects a wifi connection it will always use that first, and only use GPRS/3G/HSDPA if the wifi connection is off.
really?
Hi,
My TC seems to use 3G connection (as seen through Spb GPRS Monitor) although I am connected via WIFI. How can I avoid that so as to use 3G only for phone, or when I am out of wifi for data?
Cheers,

Hi guys,
I've recently become the proud owner of a vodafone touch pro. However when connecting to wifi, opera etc will not find any webpages. Now i know my wifi is working and the phone connects fine and picks up the DHCP ip address.
What could I be doing wrong? I've noticed data connections is disabled but I believe this is just for GPRS etc? Either way how can I confirm my wifi connection is being used?
Many thanks
EDIT - NM it was because it was not set to work
Hi Scribe,
I had the same problem as yours. No solution so far. Had no problem with GPRS.
I have mine working good on either wifi or GPRS.
Probably it's wifi problem? Have you tried on another wifi connection?
what was not set to work?
I have the same issue, connects to wifi but no internet. laptop connects and browses fine, but touch pro (and also diamond) don't
Make sure when you set your wifi connection up you say that it is used to connect to work not the internet, also make sure your adapter settings say this.
The problem is that the phone will always default to GPRS/3G for the internet but if it senses a local work network it will use that first.
Stupid I know!
I have the same prob, I changed some settings and it works. Try change Authentication to Shared instead of WAP-PSK, Data Encryption to WEP instead of TKIP. After you have internet connection, you can change to previous wifi settings with same network key.
Mine has gone again! I swear it's because 'Connects to the internet' wont save in the proxy settings - nope not that and still wont work, I've also tried by disabling all security
Hi,
At my university they have WiFi in all the buildings.
I can connect to the modem without a problem, but to have acces to the internet I have to connect through VPN otherwise it won't let me browse the web.
So I go to Settings>connections>VPN and I put all the data in it like pptp,username,pass and server, I don't know what I have to chose for 'Make connection from (internet, work, mss, wap, ipaq wap)... and Make connection with(internet, work, mss, wap, ipaq wap)..."
My question is how can I activate that VPN setting?
I connect to wifi but there is no such thing as launching the vpn settings in it...
Plz help, thx!

Hi there,
I have never been able to understand the difference between My ISP and My Work Network. So, I just deleted MyISP. In My Work Network, I have the GPRS connection and it works perfectly fine. If I connect to activesync, I can use internet. Good.
The problem comes when I want to connect to VPN. I make a new VPN connction, I click on it and click/tap connect. it connects GPRS but the vpn doesnt seem to get connected. And every tap will just give the option of CONNECT which basically means that its not getting connected.
Quetsions:
1. What is wrong with my setup?
2. How can I verify that im connected with VPN or not?
p.s: the vpn is managed by a friend of mine, right now its on L2TP and if any changes are required in the settings. it can be changed.
Im using wm6.5 , hd mini.
