wifi connects via an ISP whereas GSM/3g connects via your mobile operator

push email is a service provided by mobile operators and I don't believe any ISP's provide such a service

But, I dont get this. I can get my mail when I use my wifi, but I cant use my wifi when i want to use push. This must be wrong, dont you think? Its up to me if I want to use my wifi at home when I use push and then 3 provider when I am at work or something. There must be a way to use the wifi, or els I think this is a bug. Hope i am right

when you get mail via wifi or broadband etc you are initiating the connection to the ISP POP3 server even if you don't know there is mail there waiting to be collected.

the push service sends it to you as soon as the mail becomes available on the server and that requires something on the ISP side and that is a service I have not seen from any ISP

on my pc I just set the send/receive check interval to 1 minute and its as close as you can get to push email I guess!

I think you can with exchange, if i remember right, you can choose which connection to use for push. Has to be confirmed.

OK .. I need a bit of education here (as I don't have a 990)

How is the Internet conenction setup in relation to GPRS and WiFi ?
E.g. is there a priority system such that it tries one, and if that fails it tries the second in the list etc ?

If so does it matter which one it tries first ?

If the connection fails on the first one would that flag back to the application using the inetrnet conenction as bad connection or just the application not see the retry next concept at all?

Can someone help explain this please ?
Thanks

Internet connections can be assigned a priority. For example, I've set my device to connect to work WiFi, then home WiFi, then my mobile operatrs 3G network.

If I'm at work, I connect to work WiFi. At home, the device tries to connect to work WiFi first which is not available, and then connects to home WiFi. Elsewhere, it tries the first two and then connects to the local 3G network. A slight pause is experienced in the latter cases while networks are being searched for.

This switch between network searches can be seen in the Connections Manager.
