Need some Tasker help, please

Hey guys, just bought Tasker and would like to achieve something.
Each time I turn off the screen, I would like either the phone to switch to 2g, or completely kill data connections (preferably 2G). When I turn the screen on, I would like for it to switch back to 3g/hspa.
How can I achieve this? Thanks for any help
 
First, congrats on purchasing Tasker.

Second, read through the link in my signature. You'll learn a lot.


Now, to answer your question, you want something like this:

Context > Variable
Type in "%SCREEN" for the variable name, then set it equal to "off".

Action > Entry Task
Net > Mobile Data 2G/3G > Set it to 2G

Then, add an Exit Task
Net > Mobile Data 2G/3G > Set it to 3G
