Managing Wirless Networks and Sprint Connections

Is there a best use setup for this device to handle moving in and out of wireless networks and sprint connections? I have various applications that use the data network, and I also browse the web on this device.

When I go into my office, my EV data connection goes to 0 bars and I cannot get connected to Sprint's data network. We have wireless here; so, the device will go on to our wireless network. I want the device to automatically switch over to use that network since it's available and when I leave the office and I don't have wireless but I do have Sprint, I want it to switch back.

Is that possible? If so, how do you set it up?

Right now, I'm having to go in to the dialing rules and change it so that applications that want to access the internet should use "my work network" from "sprint".

WIFI 1X ISSUE

I have had no issues with the WIFI and 1X banging heads. I was able to go in my office and it with to WIFI automatically and when i left it went to 1X (which was on the whole time while in the office) since I use the Alwayson Hack.

The issue that you might be having is you have your WIFI set to turn off after so long. If you are a big WIFI user I would recommend unchecking that box and and keeping WIFI on until you turn it off manually. Of course that will have some effect on battery life, but you have to do whats best for you.
