Can the X6 autoconnect to Internet without prompts...

Question

Hi
My wife has an X6 and loves it, except for the handling of Internet connections which she finds very annoying.  However the phone is configured, it seems impossible to set it up so that connections are made to the Internet automatically without having to select an available connection from the list of options (e.g. home wifi, office wifi, 3G, etc).  I can fully understand the reasoning for implementing the Internet manager this way but it does seem like a real pain in the a*s.
I have recently acquired an LG Swift running Android and the Internet connectivity experience on this phone is so good it almost makes my wife cry every time she stops to think about it ;-)  On the Android phone I have set up a WiFi access point (for the home) and a 3G access point for the 3G network.  I select WiFi as my preferred option (not the home network - just WiFi in general) and that's it - nothing else to ever select/choose/start/stop.  If any WiFi connection is available, all applications use it for Internet access, if not they use the 3G connection.  On my way home from work, email notifications arrive on my phone via 3G.  Once I get inside the house they start arriving over WiFi - and I haven't even taken the phone out of my pocket.  This seems like a perfectly sensible, logical way to handle the Internet connection.  Can anybody please tell me if there is any way to approach this sort of functionality on the X6?  Having to continually specify which connection to use every time the web browser is fired up would drive me insane - but that's what happens on the X6.
 I've trawled through all the settings I can find, searched the web fruitlessly and torn my hair out trying to change the way it works.  I have tried with the 3G access point placed in the Internet and WAP folders, I've played around with priorities for the access points, setting the Internet to be the default access point, setting the WiFi to connect automatically, setting WiFi to scan continually, and all combinations of settings I can think of.  If somebody can just tell me it's possible I'm happy to go away and try playing with the settings again - it's just that I've reached a point where I don't think it *is* possible, so I'm close to giving up.
I should add that the phone manual (page 134) explains exactly how to do just this:
"To avoid selecting a single access point every time the device makes a network connection, you can create a group that contains various access points to connect to that network and define the order in which the access points are used. For example, you can add wireless LAN (WLAN) and packet data access points to an internet access point group, and use the group for browsing the web. If you give WLAN the highest priority, the device connects to the internet through WLAN, if available, and through a packet data connection if not."
so naturally this was the first thing I did but it doesn't make any difference - the prompt to select an available connection still appears.
If anybody can help I'll have a very happy wife - and probably be allowed to play golf every day for the next month :-)
Thanks in anticipation

Firstly, apologies for the length of the original post - I didn't realise how long it was until I viewed it on the phone at home!  Looks tiny on my huge monitor at work.
Secondly, thanks for the prompt - I now have the browser set up so that it automatically connects to WiFi or 3G as required.  This is definitely an improvement but not quite what I'm really after.  This setting is application specific rather than generic across all Internet access on the phone.  YouTube app connects automatically now too (I guess it is layered over the browser API which might explain this) but Facebook app still prompts for a connection (and there are no settings anywhere for this app).  Also, I can't get Gmail app to switch between WiFi and 3G - it just stays with whichever the initial connection is made to (it's set to use the 'Internet' access point where the WiFi and 3G connections are listed in 1,2 priority).  
Maybe the apps are just integrated better on Android and that's the way it is.
Thanks again
