Try clicking on the settings icon, then click on Network and you should set the following to off:

Enable 3G OFF
Cellular Data OFF
Data Roaming OFF

Then back to settings Click on WIFI and set to ON. It should for available wifi networks and you choose one to join. You may have to enter a password if your network selection has a lock next to it.

Hope this helps.

These are always good choices to make when traveling as well, as fees for 3G in foreign countries can add up.

Well my phone must be connecting to the Telcel internet connection because again I used up all $200 pesos in one day "connecting to the internet" which is very expensive here in Mexico.

I cannot figure out how to do this and wonder if someone can advise me and save me lots of pesos. I have a great wifi connection at my residence and there are lots of wyfi hot spots here in this town.
