Hi Jim, the only way you will permanently stay connected to your wifi is to not exit out. If you press key 2 to close the web browser, this also closes the session with the wifi until you open web browser again. The only way is to open your application and leave it open. So log into skype and once logged in, press and hold the menu key. You will then get a list of running applications. Arrow to the standby screen and you can stay that way as long as your battery lasts. I haven't looked at a long life battery for the N86 as when i last looked, there wasn't one. I've ended up by buying about 5 of them and cycling through them. It keeps my phone running at all times. Hope this helps, Carla.
