Mobile Phone and Internet
Hi Guys,
Will my new mobile phone use my home's internet for free?
I have a pre-paid mobile phone plan, with a little bandwith and phonecalls/messages included, on the above mobile, (which I want to use when I am not at home) and don't want a surprise charge, when thinking I am at home, on my mobile, using my home internet for free (meanwhile I am being charged and am not aware).

Re: Mobile Phone and Internet
Hi. If you have wi-fi switched on, then your phone will look for available networks like your home network; and use that whenever possible. If you want to be sure you can turn off mobile data when you're home (in the settings in your handset) so it only uses wi fi. - Matthew.
