How to connect to internet/web manually? (not automatically)

Hi all

I just got my Milestone and noticed that whenever my phone has a signal, it connects immediately to the Internet as well by the service provider. I wanted to know the ff:

1. If I see the icon beside the signal and battery indicator (it looks like 2 arrows, 1 up down 1) on the home page that I am connected to the Internet via my ISP, it to say that I'm already charged for surfing the internet or will it only "connects" as soon as I get my browser , email, etc.? I noticed the icon which looks like 2 arrows only "highlight" when I enter the browser, e-mail or other applications that use the net, so I don't know if it means that I am charged only when I get the apps that use the internet?

2. is there a way to simply manually connect to the internet? For example, when I enter the browser, can he ask me first asked how I want to connect instead of just automatically connect using my ISP connection?

3. when I free Wifi, the priority phone using Wifi connection via the provider of services on the web connection?

The reason for my questions, it of that I can't connect to the Internet using my ISP because it costs a lot of money and would connect on the web only when a Wifi connection is available.

Hello

There is a free app on the market: APNdroid.

This app disables 3 G/EDGE/GPRS communication by changing the name of the carrier APN. This disables any Internet connection.

Hope that helps.

    Hello
     
    You must have GPRS activated from your network service provider.

    To connect the phone to the computer, you need a PC suite installed on the computer. If the phone manufacturers have supplied PC suite CD, then install the software on the computer.
    The operating system on the computer and the mobile phone are different, so communication is not directly.  PC suite software acts as a mediator between the computer and the phone and helps to establish effective communication between the phone and the computer. If the CD is not provided, then look for in PC suite online and download it.

  • I do not use a proxy server to connect to internet, but Firefox is automatically configured to use the loopback address.

    I have a direct connection to the internet and that you do not use a proxy server. Every few weeks, Firefox will automatically reset itself to be configured to use a proxy to the loopback address (127.0.0.1). Manually change to 'No proxy' works, but I have to do so every time I open the browser or even a new tab. The only solution I can find is to create a new profile that gives me a new, clean install of FF, but then I lose all my Add-ons. This has happened several times now and it's extremely frustrating. I have scanned for malware, but have not found any problems.

    Hello rjlasser, first of all please make sure that none of your extensions is the origin of the problem (some circumvention of censorship of youtube addons do also use proxies for example).

    Otherwise please see How to fix the preferences that will not save for common solutions.

    Hello

    First of all, you need to know if the wireless network adapter is installed on your laptop or not.
    Also check device manager if the Wlan card driver is installed correctly.
    Then you must configure your WLan router.
    In this case, you should check your manual for the router WLan configuration of this device.

    If you want to connect to the laptop to the router WLan so you must enable the wireless network adapter. Usually the WLan switch on the side of the laptop must be turned on (LIT)
    Then, you go to the WLan antenna with the FN + F8 key combination.

    If everything is on then you should go to network connections, it you have available WLan network properties. Go to wireless networks and select view wireless networks button. You should see your WLan.

    If you have set up the WLan encryption on the router, then you must first set the password to connect to the WLan.

  • Satellite P100: How to connect to internet via WiFi?

    I read a post above that says that the sticker on the bottom of the laptop ' wireless network: no w/l ' means that there are no installed wireless.
    I'm fairly certain that my Satellite P100 has installed. I customized my phone, ensuring that I have added wireless for the school.

    I have an on-off switch for the wireless on the case. Also, when I entered a zone wireless for the first time, a program (Q-Connect) came.
    I reinstalled Windows XP and wonder if it is a software that is missing (which has been the case with other similar programs audio).

    This could be the operator error?
    I don't know anything wireless.

    First, you must be sure that your laptop has WLan card to 100%. Go to the Device Manager and check the network adapters section. If you will see card WLan (intel or atheros) then you unit definitely has the Wlan card.
    To use the WiFi network, you must configure your Wlan router. Consult the manual.
    You must then activate the Wlan switch on the side of the laptop and use the combination FN + F8 to select the WiFi network.

    For the other steps, you can also check this forum wireless. Here you will find a lot of descriptions.

  • How to change the links that do not automatically have up-to-date?

    Is there an easy way to change how you connected together the documents on the site? When I started work on our site, I worked directly at the exit of the FTP connection, then after I created the first page I realized that I could use a local site and save it to the FTP later. I used a connection to the server without a name saved on my hardrive that Dreamweaver put in place by default. When I recorded it on the FTP site, almost half of my links was not working anywhere, but on my own computer (they were still link to a local disk). When I downloaded them later for FTP, links in all of my pages not were not updated to version FTP. I used the broad function of check-links site and tried to change the site wide links, but I have to do something wrong. Is there an easy way to search for a site for links to images, etc. who have a link on the local disk to the remote site?
