Default 8520 won't connect to wifi after MEP unlock

hi

have just unlocked my blackberry curve 8520 and it works fine for texting and everything on both sim cards but now i can't connect to my wi-fi on either card?

i've deleted my wi-fi profile off the phone and re-added it but still no joy.

Anyone any ideas as to what I need to do to get this back?

cheers

O

yeah figured it out (a bit), but how do I make my BB use a sim card with no data plan automatically connect with wi-fi to use the internet and not the service provider/carrier? It will connect to wifi if I have my mobile network switched off but not if it's on?

You need a data plan.
