My majour problem is when the phone is disconnected from web n walk, because I have it set to autoconnect I believe my phone is doing this a nunmber of times over the day and then when connected is trying desperately to keep the connection open on one bar...

I shall read into autodisconnect Im looking for something that basically checks the connection iv got and decideds on weather to connect or not based on the connection quality
