My E71 uses WAP even when a WLAN connection is ava...

I'd like to set it so my phone ALWAYS uses WLAN if available and only ever uses WAP when there is no WLAN connection.
It's a new phone (to me, anyway) and I'm still getting use to the settings.
It's an Eseries E71.
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Go to Web > Options > Settings > General > Access point - does it currently say "User defined" or "Ask on connection"? If says the former change to "Ask on connection" and then back to "User defined" to give you opportunity to choose WLAN access point.
Another way is to install SmartConnect by Birdstep form Nokia Store: http://store.ovi.com/content/10328

  • Can I force my phone to make calls using WiFi, even when wireless is available?

    When I was in the UK a couple years ago I could make calls back to USA using WiFi, because the wireless service was incompatible with my phone.
    When I was in the Dominican Republic last year, even though I used GrooveIP and Google Voice, I came home to a $400+ wireless roaming bill, I think because the wireless service there IS compatible.  So how do I force my phone to make calls using WiFi, even when wireless is available?

        Hey there FredW,
    A $400 bill would certainly cause my jaw to drop so I absolutely want to provide you steps to prevent this from happening going forward.
    To avoid data charges you are going to want to make sure that Data roaming is turned off,http://vz.to/18oRFuS.
    You'll also want to disable mobile data,http://vz.to/1hCPg4Q.
    When using services such as GrooveIP, Google Voice, Skype you are going to want to make sure that you are connected to WiFi. Here is how to set up a WiFi connection,http://vz.to/II1jP6.

  • Should I use escape even when I can enter Unicode characters directly

    Unicode escape sequence - what is its purpose?
    Should I use it even when I can enter Unicode characters directly using a text editor?

    Then how does it fit into the I18n concept which provides for sending out text files with text strings for translation?
    How one will translate escapes?

  • My phone won't use IMessage even when the person I'm txting has an iPhone why?

    Why won't my phone use iMessage even when the person in txting has an iphone

    I'm having same problem with sending to 3 people from a particular WiFi Network. For two people the iMessage i write is sending, but stops just before Delivery and then says not delivered. For the third person it immediately sends as text message.
    Answered to questions above.
    Can I send to others... Intermittent. Usually no, but then at some point a lot of iMessages comes at once.
    Settings have been enabled.
    Also other persons settings/Messages are enabling iMessage.
    Enabled for WiFi + non roaming cellular ( at my end it should mean only wifi as I am in roaming area with wifi available).
    Numbers are all enabled as we have used them a lot of times, an no changes or upgrades this month.
    So: it seems to me to be a WiFi issue here, but the odd thing is that it sometimes lets iMessages through.
    e-mail and browsing works fine.
    Any suggestions?

  • IPad 4 switches off when i am using it, even when battery is fully charged.  Restore function (holding down both buttons) often does not work.  Cannot power up iPad.  I have updated software, restarted computer, but no success.  Please help

    IPad 4 switches off when i am using it, even when battery is fully charged.  Restore function (holding down both buttons) often does not work.  Cannot power up iPad.  I have updated software, restarted computer, but no success.  I did restore the iPad about 8 times during the past 2 weeks.  Just completed another restore.  iTunes says the the iPad has been restored and will restart automatically and appear in iTunes when it is ready.  That was 30 minutes ago.  iPad still won't start.  I am looking down the barrel of yet another fruitless restore.  What a crap product.

    Try a reset:
    Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

  • My macbook pro running OS X 10.8.3 freezes when I plug an adapter into the displayport, even when nothing is connected to the other (vga) end. Anyone know a solution?

    My macbook pro running OS X 10.8.3 freezes when I plug an adapter into the displayport, even when nothing is connected to the other (vga) end. Anyone know a solution? I have used this adapter with a macbook air and it works flawlessly, but the moment I plug into the minidisplayport the macbook pro freezes with a little spinning color wheel that goes on and on. . .

    Hello there, sarhang27753.
    First thing that would come to mind to resolve the issue would be SMC and PRAM resets. I've linked Knowledge Base articles below:
    SMC

  • Why is it YouTube loads really slow sometimes even when I'm connected to wifi ?

    Why is it YouTube loads really slow sometimes even when I'm connected to wifi ?

    Hard to say. The speed of your Internet connection. Congestion on YouTube's servers, problems at any point in between you and them... When you are connected to WiFi, you will get a substantially higher resolution version of some videos than you do on 3G.
    Are you using the youtube app or are you just accessing it via a web browser.

  • Why can't I connect to App Store even when I am connected

    Why can't I connect to my App Store even when I'm connected to the internet

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.

  • Whenever i open itunes on my iphone it shows "Cannot connect to iTunes" even when my internet connection is fine.

    Whenever i open itunes on my iphone it shows "Cannot connect to iTunes" even when my internet connection is fine.

    Try restarting the iPhone.
    If that doesn't do it, one thing that others have done to fix this is manually set the date and time a few months out  (Settings > General > Date & Time), test it again, and then set it back to the correct time.
    You can also take a look at this Apple doc for other ideas -> Can't connect to the iTunes Store

  • Airport Express 2nd WAN Port light always on, even when nothing is connected.

    My Airport Express 2nd WAN Port light always on, even when nothing is connected.
    Is this normal? The Airport utility also said that I didn't connect anything to the port - when there is a lan cable connected from the main Airport Extreme.
    The computer can connect to the WiFi from the Airport Express properly, but with blinking yellow and no internet connection, also it cannot obtain the ip address.
    After setting the Airport Express to the Bridge mode, the computer cannot access to the Airport Express anymore, with "Connection Time Out" error.
    The Airport Express was 3 days old, and was working properly until today. There is also one blackout today because of the storm.
    Had reset the Airport several times, didn't solve the problem.

    Hi again. That is a good idea. Check if router can grab an ip from your modem since wireless local connection through the router is working. If it can grab an ip and works fine on wireless, then you might have a problem with the ethernet ports. You might want to try assigning an ip address on the wired connection and see if ip of router is pingable. If really not working at all, possibility that router is not working properly anymore.

  • E71 use bluetooth while audio jack,s connected

    is it possible to use bluetooth headset while audio jack,s connected?
    i listen a lot of internet radio on my e71 through car stereo by casette adapter(headphones enhancement).it's very arduous to plug off audio jack from the phone every time you want to answer a call and talk by bluetooth!
    even if bluetooth heaset is connected i can't use him till i plug off audio jack.
    if i answer a call when jack is connected i can hear the voice throough car speakers and i have to use phone mic.
    is there any solution ?
    please help!

    I'm also having this problem. So are over 50 people to date, and I'm sure we're just the only ones who are active. http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s3/576056-can-not-use-bluetooth-when-audio-jack-plugged.html
    Can this be fixed? This is extremely dangerous. I use my phone as an mp3 player and connect it through the audio jack in my car, and also want to use my bluetooth headset to make and receive calls. Instead the call comes through my speakers and there is no microphone, leaving me scrambling to unplug my audio cable while driving.
    People say that the original firmware didn't have this problem. Samsung says it's Verizon, Verizon says its Samsung, I dont care who is liable as long as someone fixes it!
    Thanks

  • Key Stuck - *EVEN WHEN NO KEYBOARD CONNECTED*

    Hello
    The up cursor on the keyboard is stuck on.
    But it stays stuck even when no keyboard is connected at all.
    i.e. if you use the mouse to open a menu, the options will highlight from the bottom up.
    If you type a document the cursor will keep flying back to the top.
    It's impossible to enter any passwords as the invisible keystrokes of the up cursor seem to make it invalid.
    It's exactly if something was resting on the keyboard.
    I"ve tried different keyboards, including a BlueTooth one, so that rules out the connections.
    And As I say it persists even when the keyboard and mouse are entirely disconnected.
    It is still on when I startup from a bootable CD.
    It feels as if some sort of hardware problem has occurred...
    I've tried resetting the PRAM but as the keyboard doesn't function correctly, I can't use the startup shortcut.
    I've unplugged mains power and removed the battery and pressed the PMU reset button, but to no avail.
    I've started up from an OSX Leopard disk, but the problem persists.
    This is driving me crazy, any ideas?

    yes, I've tried with 2 different mice, and with no mouse connected.
    Even restarted from an install CD with no keyboard or mouse connected at all, cursor is still jumping upwards, and the repeating chime that you get when the keyboard buffer is full (like when you acidentally rest something on a key) is constantly sounding.
    It feels to me as if there is some false signal getting to the keyboard buffer that the computer is interpreting as a constant up arrow key press.
    Any ideas? Is there a part of the internals of the computer that I should check hasn't come loose in some way, triggering this false key input?
    The problem happened after I moved the computer from one part of the office to another.
