i'm sure you can since text messaging uses the same network as your voice service

you can text (sms or mms). the wifi, remember, is not VoIP... just kinda form of it. all it is doing is transfering your call via internet to the swichboard, the cell towers go to the same swich. it just a way for you to get better reception in your home and also free CALLS in the wifi area. and that can be seperated easily simply where the call is coming from. but make sure you know downloads and text will be charged or come out of your bucket still.
