Re: wifi vs edge

If you are coonected to a wireless router it won't matter if you use internet browser or wifi browser. In fact I mostly use the internet browser because it seems to optimize the web pages and surfing. Both will work. But I will say when I move to my lower level of my house I tend to use the wifi browser it seems to do better if the signals weaker~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~

I don't know if I answered your question. Wifi will take over if connected to wireless router even if your default browser is internet explorer~via BB (wap.pinstack.com)~

Confimed here too. WiFi takes over.
I noticed that my loading times are much quicker when I disable Java support.
