i only have 150mb of 3g data allowance a month i thought when i hit 130mb i could turn off 3g but have it still auto connect to wifi when im at home

i tried going to Mobile Network and then Turn Off Data.. but this also disables my Wi Fi


is there a way to have 3G data disables so my emails are not been pushed and i cant browse untill i get home and are covered by wi fi or will i have to manually turn "turn on/off data" all the time?

thanks

i "think" to what you want you would need to (1) go to Manage Connections, (2) uncheck Mobile Network while you don't want 3G data to be received, and (3) check Wi-Fi (only) when you have wi-fi coverage and want to use it.

i am afraid (2) will preclude use of your phone, and i've also heard (and think i have perceived) that blackberries gobble up more battery juice faster while running in wi-fi mode for data.

good luck

mine switch to WiFi automatically whenever its avalaible.
the 3G is on but internet Connection set on WiFi

i think all bolds do that automatic you dont need to turn off the mobile network

If you go to Services Status under Manage Connections it will show you what connections it is using. Currently I have 3G and WIFI on and my Bold says that Blackberry service is using the WIFI.
