Hi Friends,
I got an answer to the whole issue. Its very simple. When you are in a free (open/unprotected) wifi zone, all u have to do is Create a Browsing profile and then connect to the Wi-Fi connection using the same profile, follow this:
1. Go to Menu.
2. Select Browser.
3. It will prompt you to create a new connection. Select Create.
4. In the next section leave Set Name as it is (or you can change it if you like)
5. In Bearer type drop down box Select Wifi.
6. In the next prompt select Search Wi-Fi Manually.
Wi-Fi will turn on and search for a Wi-Fi network in the region automatically.
7. Select the Wi-Fi network you want and It will save its name.
8. Leave the rest of the things as it is, no need to change any more settings.
9. Just select Save Button, It will directly take you to Browser profile page with the newly created profile listed(Default Name: Connection 01). Select the Radio Button in front of it.
10. Now come out to the main menu.
11. Now go to the Wi-Fi Tab, as it is already on it will show you the Wi-Fi networks in the region, if its not, turn it on and search again.
12. Select the Wi-Fi network you want to use and, select Connect.
13. Depending on the signal strength it will try connecting.
14. Once connected it will give you a message saying connected, you might need to attempt it a couple of times.
15. Once connected exit out and go to any shortcut on your phone or select Enter URL and type in the name of the Site you want to browse to.
16. There you go, you can start browsing to all your favorite Sites now.
NOTE: These steps only work for Free/Open to Air Wi-Fi connections, like in Coffee Shops, Hotels, Malls, Airports etc.

Hi Iveal,
Could you pls clarify what settings do I have to configure because, when I am accessing an open Wi-fi conection available to all at places like coffee shops, malls etc, they do not give network settings there and I wouldnt know who their network provider is to get the settings from them.
I thought I would connect to free wifi connections as long as I am in their signal range.
Thanks n Regards

• 1. Delete the configured wireless connection/s if you already have one.
• 2. Enable wi-fi but do not perform search at the moment
• 3. Now open the browser and select settings then browser profiles press search for wi-fi.
• 4. Select the connection that you want to connect to then type the details and match the settings on the router.
• 5. Auth type = WPA, encryption = TKIP, network key = router pre-shared key, protocol = HTTP, Home URL = address of modem (you can change it later if everything is already working), leave proxy blank, linger = default, adhoc = off, no need to do advance settings.
• 6. Save the settings and do not connect yet.
• 7. Exit the browser and go to Wi-Fi and select the connection that you have just configured and select details.
• 8. Check all the settings if ok. if the channel is different with the router, adjust it on the router to match the one used by the phone. IP address = not connected (it will automatically connect once you browse the internet).
• 9. Now, try to browse the internet but you must set first the connection you've just configured as default connection.

2.then go to the ADVANCED tab
3.next tick the -"allow the other network users to connect through my computer"
3.then aotomatically one "setting" tab will be popped up
4.then click on it and you will get a window containing "SERVICES"
then tick the "DNS " option present over there.......
thats it .......
now try to connect your mobile with the wifi and surely it starts working.....
