Need some guidance regarding WIFI issue

Hi, Javelin is my first blackberry device and i love everything about this phone (:

Just 1 question about the WIFI, every time when i turn on the wifi though the "manage connections" icon , the phone is able to find my modem and my modem name appear right beside the "Wi-Fi" words. But just wondering how do i know it is connected or not? On the side it show a " - " sign not a tick so am i connected? and the wifi icon on the top right-hand corner is grey in colour.

But i am still able to access to the Hotspot Browser but if i off my "data service " it will not work. my connection preference is set to wi-fi preferred.

Just abit confused about how this things work, can anyone explain clearly to me. Many thanks! (:
