N8 Connectivity

[brianro]

Is there any way to prevent N8 from using from using network (Vodacom/Vlive, etc.) when connecting to Ovi Store etc. I'd always prefer to use my WLAN connection.

Switch it of under Menu>settings>connectivity>settings
Switch to Wlan- Known Wlans only
Data use in home network-Always ask
Data use when roaming- Always ask

WLan will always connect when available and it would ask to connect when you are away from the WLan's, say when using the Maps during traveling then you select "this time only"

Thanks MegaXLR. Got it now. However Skype Mobile still seems to 'insist' in only connecting through Vlive and not using my WLAN connection! Any suggestions, please?

Won't it help if you create a new Network destination. Copy your WLAN link into it and force (if possible) Skype only to connect using the new Destination? I do it this way to use VOIP at the office so the client does not try to connect when I'm out of office.
