I am assuming that you are using a 8320 or 8120.
Firstly you have to be in a wifi zone,
scan for wifi and connect to the wifi,
then browse.

Well that shouldnt be the case. You should be able to browse wifi without chargin of your credit in any hotspot. Do 2 things. 1 ensure you are in a hotspot and you are connected to it. 2. Go to options -> Mobile network -> Connection preference -> choose WIFI

Hope this helps..

Disable the mobile network then connect to your wifi and see what happens.

I recently got a 8320 as well and i was trying to browse via the wireless at my office and it was taking credit from my account.. Anyways i figured it out..

you need to go to Options>>Advanced Options>>Browser>>Default browser configuration>>then change it to "hotspot browser"
