wifi and sprint data connection
When i turn on wifi at the same time as the phone connection, how do i know which one is being used? Can i specify one or is it automatic?
The reason i ask is my wifi is much faster then the sprint connection naturally and i wanna make sure it's using it when possible |
Re: wifi and sprint data connection
Go into the Communication Manager and turn data off when you turn wifi on. Thats what I do.

I'd like to know also. I already do what kyle stated but I wonder if it automatically chooses for you (i.e. Sprint signal over wifi or vis versa).

if wifi is on it uses that for internet but if your data is on it will use it to check your email and what not. (it they are both on)

Yeh, me too. I would like to know if you have some expert knowledge on this. I think you are right. It seems to be the case with me that the faster wifi kicks in, but there have been times when the phone tries dialing the #777 when the wifi is on. Do you know why that is?

Re: wifi and sprint data connection
I turn my data off but I will randomly find it has turned itself back on. I'm worried about getting charged a lot from Verizon since I am currently paying per megabyte and weather/email checks will probably add up over the course of a month. There is a setting in connections to change which source the internet comes from for programs that automatically connect. It was set to Verizon Wireless, but I changed it to NETWORK for now. I'm not sure if that changes anything.

I don't know if this is the answer you are looking for, but when i am connected through WIFI, I get a wifi icon at the top of the page. I also get 2 arrows that move back and forth.
