Hi,

My Dad got a HTC Wildfire phone recently. He also got a wireless broadband router installed in the house. I've set up Skype for him on the phone but there is one problem:

I have setup the wireless broadband connection on his phone. But I cannot find a settings menu in the Skype program which allows me to choose between using his phone network's 3g signal and using the wireless broadband signal that he has in the house. There seems to be no way of knowing which of these signals his phone is using for Skype.

Do you know how to figure this out?

Best regards,
Warrior Monk

Skype will use wifi for data first if it's connected and the mobile network second. You don't need to change any settings it happens automatically, the same is true for any other data.
