Wireless Networks Question

2 replies · 2,321 views · Started 08 April 2007

Hi all, just new to the forum, got my N95 yesterday and so far i'm pleased with it. Just a quick question regarding the use of wireless networks. I have wireless broadband in my home, which my N95 happily finds and connects to after entering the network key, however does this allow me to browse the internet on my N95 for free, just as if using a laptop etc? (obviously disregading the actual broadband subscription cost to BT) or wil this incur some sort of charge from o2 (my network provider)? just as if using o2 wap/gprs.
Thanks for the help all.

Not that you require any confirmation or should doubt the previous poster in any way but browsing via WiFi will not incur the costs of your mobile operator as you are not using the cellular service (GPRS/WAP/UMTS/etc) but are using your domestic internet service provider as if you were using your desktop PC or laptop etc.

Just make sure you select your home WiFi network when you connect on your N95 to ensure this is your chosen network.
