Is there a way to use only WiFi for internet / OVI store / Community connections always? And Never use GPRS / EDGE at all?

(i.e) Is ther a way to disable GPRS and EDGE without affecting WiFi in Nokia C3-00?

[gentleman31]

Forgot to mention, the details of the firmware iam using.

Here they are:

c3-00

V 08.63

25-03-11

RM-614

Variant: 255.04

Im managing to access the internet on mine using wifi & I dont have the sim card in!  ( I cant do a lot else witth this phone yet tho!)

It did take me while to work out that wlan means wifi tho! LOL!

You can access wi-fi even with sim card in. Go to setting-configuration settings- personal configuration settings-add new- web. Don't enter any data in any field & press back. Then press again add new-access point. Again don't enter data in any field & press back. Now select each of them & activate them as default. Come back to config settings-default config settings- personal- activate. Then select activate default in all apps. Then select prefered access point & select the one labelled as My access point.
Now the phone wont connect to internet using the gprs/edge

I do not have any option called as "Destination" in Connectivity settings.

Is this available on a newer firmware of something like that?

ng85.. Your solution seemed to work partially.

However, After adding new accesspoint (dummy) and activating them, I cannot activate the dummy accesspoint that I created as it does not show up at all.

I deleted my default config setting "Idea" from the default config setting though. I just need to try now to access internet only thru wifi and check that GPRS/ EDGE is not getting used at all.

I am very very very very thank you . I bought yesterday c3. When i was using ovi store. I connected wlan. But my carrier was giving me message about balance. I was so frustrated and couldn't find any solution. I did add Access point and My web. But didn't activate in all applications. 

Thank you very much for clear soluition.

Try the following steps:

You can set the WLAN or Wi-Fi to the highest priority so it will not connect to GPRS. To do this, go to Menu > Settings > Connectivity > WLAN > Saved WLANs > Select which WLAN that you want to connect > Options > Organise priority.

Once done, set the packet data connection to when needed. This settings will establish a packet data connection when needed by an application. The connection is closed when the application is closed. You can set that by going to Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Packet data > Packet data connection > When needed.

Hope this helps.
