E72 refusing to use wifi to access internet unless...

hi all,
just got an e72-1 (gsm). It connects to wifi fine, and when i go into wifi menu on the home screen and hit start web browsing it works fine, however if i then try to use an app that uses the net (updating maps/facebook/ovi etc etc) it only trys to access the net via my network's mobile internet. How can I (if at all possible) convince my handset to give me the option at the time of connection which way I would like to access the net, or alternatively to set WIFI as its 'preferential' point of access so that it wont keep trying to eat throuh my data bundle??

Go to unlockit.co.nz. from your phone
Make sure you are connected to your wifi when you do so
select your coutry and your network and install the APN
Hope this solves your problem

Nokia E52 restarts everytime using WIFI to access...

Everytime when i try to use WIFI to access Internet either using browser to surf, accessing the facebook or youtube applications using WIFI, the phone screen goes dim, and goes back to the main screen (the WLAN is automatically off when the phone restarts).
I have tried upgrading the firmware, but the problem still persist. The storekeeper says this is a phone bug, and there is nothing NOKIA can do.

Today i went to the company which sold me my Nokia E52 for my WiFi problem, i mentioned above.
As they saw i have updated my software version to 34.001 /the latest/ the told me that the warranty is void. Is this correct?
Everywhere it is mentioned that it is recommended to use the latest versions of the software, because some bugs are fixed, some additional functions are available, some problems are solved ...
I tried to explain to this companys personel, that i have never used my WiFi, because in the beginning when i bought my E52 phone, my first attempts were unsuccessfull because the phone was restarting when trying to use WiFi; but the use of WiFi then, at that moment was not so necessary. Now when i need this WiFi function, i tried the sofware update, and now my phone gives "System error" when trying to access WiFi.
Please advice?
Also i tried to look for the Nokia representative in Bulgaria - no success - on the Nokia official site it is mentioned only to ask for service where i have bought my phone from... No official authorised service?
As i read over the net the WiFi problem of E52 is a very common problem. Please advice what to do?

Using 9500 to access internet with laptop

I have a basic laptop that is not connected to the internet. Is it possible to use the 9500 to connect my laptop to the internet.

Absolutely. It is even quite straightforward and well-documented. You'll need to set up internet access on your phone first - your service provider will likely tell you how to do this.
Once that's done you'll be able to use the phone just like any old modem. But, you'll need to install drivers onto your pc first. The drivers are downloadable from this site, and are also included in the PC Suite application (also downloadable from this site). In order to connect the phone and the laptop together you have a choice of what technology to use. The choices are bluetooth (good - phone needs to be in same room as laptop), infrared (not quite so good - phone needs to be within a foot or so of the laptop and the Infrared ports on both laptop and phone need to be in line-of-sight with each other) or using the usb cable that came with the phone (good, except you need to carry the cable with you). I seem to remember that the PC Suite application takes a lot of the pain out of setting all this stuff up for you. Plus the phone manual (again, downloadable from this site) will help. One final thing - if you're planning on using the phone just to dial up your ISP, you're talking very slow connection speeds. It might be worth looking at gprs or edge. You don't need to do anything with the phone, just talk to your cellular service provider to get the service enabled. HTH, Pete

Can I sync my ipad using wifi across the internet?

Hi there.
I am looking for the easiest way to support a remote iPad using my local computer and iTunes. My mother lives in a distant city and she doesn't have access to a computer, however she has access to WiFi. I would like to be able to help her with content , updates, etc from my computer .
Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

There are apps that let you SSH into an ipad in order to copy files to and from a computer. But you can't run apps or system tasks like upgrades on an ipad remotely, which is what I think you want to do.

Removed and reloaded firefox several times but it will not launch any more have to use ie to access internet

when i press icon disc activity led will flash for a moment then nothing firefox used to work sometimes taking a little longer to launch than ie

Thank you! Thank You! Thank You!!! I have been arguing with Comcast for 6 months on this. They told me to uninstall and reinstall Firefox. Then I found this website and there was my solution. It worked. It was annoying that they told me to use internet explorer. The worst part is I pay them monthly. Well, as soon as my contract is up, I am done with Comcast. They still haven't figured out why my favorite stations aren't coming in. Funny thing is my roommate has Direct t.v. with no problems. At half the price. See ya Comcast. I am done paying for shabby over priced service. Thank you Firefox. I can't believe I pay for crappy service and this is free.

WRT54GS V4.0 Laptop Connects But can't access internet unless I am in DMZ mode.

This is recent. I've changed no settings or otherwise done anything to block access, but I've had this problem 2 times now, and I'm beginning to think the router is crapping out on me.
Here's why I know it is not the laptop Wifi that is the problem... When I am connected to the router, I CAN access the router administration pages, but I can't access anything on the internet itself unless the modem is in DMZ mode(I have to put it into DMZ mode and then power cycle the router). If the modem is in DMZ mode, I have no problems.
This only happens with the Wireless connection. On my desktop I have no such problems either way.
I have been using this router since January of this year and have not had any issues until recently when I would occasionally have to reset the laptop's connection to this router, and now this issue.
Note: after it happened the first time, I took my laptop over to the in-laws house and I had no issues for the entire day that I was using the laptop. I come back here to my router and start having issues again.
P.S. I use Ethereal (wireless security monitor) to determine what channels others are using within my range and have set mine to different channels that do not conflict with others, but still no change.

Hi.. What are the DNS serves that are assign to your laptop when you have this issue? Are they public or private? Are you able to ping to any of these DNS server?
You should have public DNS server assign to your laptop. and you should be able to ping to that DNS server to make sure that you have internet connection. If you dont have public dns server, try to ping to 4.2.2.2 (a very common dns server) if you are able to ping to this, then assign this dns to your laptop. you should be online.
Also try to upgrade the firmware on the router.

My iMessage will not use wifi to send messages unless the phone is on Airplane mode

I cannot send or receive texts at home because there is insufficient service at my house so I use iMessage over wifi. The issue is that when I am on wifi and out of service the phone will not send iMessages or texts over wifi unless the phone is in Airplane mode. Does anyone know how to make wifi the default iMessage so that I can send iMessages over wifi without going to Airplane mode? It tries to send them but it acts as if there is no service when I have full wifi and as soon as I switch to Airplane mode and keep wifi connected, all messages send fine.

Do the basic troubleshooting steps, as needed, described in the User Guide, Appemdix B: restart, reset, restore using a backup, restore as new.

Is using wifi the same as verizon internet?

If i use wifi instead of internet provided by verizon will the billing still be the same?

What phone do you have? If it is a smartphone and requires a data plan to be activated, then your billing will be $30 a month for the minimum 2 GB data plan, whether you sue wi-fi or not. If you have wi-fi available, you can reduce the amount of data you are using, and depending on the phone you have, it will help keep your usage within your allowance.
My daughter has an iPhone, and uses it constantly here at home, on our wi-fi. I know she uses it a lot when she's NOT at home as well, and her usage average 1 GB a month - it would likely be higher (and even over the 2 GB allowance) were it not for our home wi-fi.
On the other hand, I have a BlackBerry, and even without the wi-fi I use way less than 1 GB a month, less than 100 MB a month. So it all depends on what you do and what type of phone you have. Using wi-fi will cut down the data used from Verizon's network, but it will not eliminate the need to have the required minimum data plan to activate the phone.

New Ipod Touch 5g can't access Internet in home network (using Linksys E4200 router). But, OK with other Wifi.

Just bought new Ipod Touch 5g. I found out it can't access Internet in home network. not really cannot access, but very slow to open any web page, App Store failed to access, etc. But, OK with other Wifi (office & starbucks). Others existing iOS devices (Iphone4 & Ipad2) have no problem like this. I'm using Linksys E4200 router at home. anyone has any idea why?

Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>GeneralReset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Can I use Google Translate in France on my iPod touch? Will I be able to access Internet abroad and therefore use software?

Will I be able to use Google translate app in France? Can I just access Internet abroad? Any directives?

You can check if the app does require internet by going into airplane mode or turning off WiFi and re launching the app. If it does not work, google "offline translater app for iOS".

After iOS7.0.2 update can no longer visit the internet using WiFi

I have tried unsuccessfully to sign into many services on the internet, but my iPhone4 will not connect using WiFi after upgrading to iOS7.0.2. I must use Cellular data to connect to the internet.
If i RESET NETWORK settings and connect using Cellular data, it works.
If I RESET NETWORK settings and connect using my local computer (home) WIFI I FAIL.
I have had no problems connecting for months w WIFI at home, but this week I cannot.
It's fine if I use cellular only data. But I don't want to use cellular.

The above quit working this morning.
Tonite I have WIFI access. At least for tonite.
Settings/General/Reset/Erase All Content and Settings
Then restore from backup.
I had to put the iPhone4 into blank factory state FIRST.
Then restored my iTunes backup.
Seems to be working fine for about 5 hours.
