Trinity / Hermes WIFI WM6 + WPA2 PSK + AES Issue - Networking

Hi,
I have a Hermes unit running WM6 Black edition 2.5 and I can connect to my corporate WIFI WPA2 PSK + AES network without any problem. The issue I'm having is with a Trinity unit running WM6 LVSW_Trinity_WM6_v2.0.0.7 (2007-05-19), I can't log on
Are there any known issues ? Is this a software problem or could it be hardware related ?
Regards,
John Gillespie

WiFi Problem with TyTn against WPA

Hi, maybe someone could be of any help
I tried out allready a lot and do not see a light at the end of the tunnel.
I am trying to get a TyTn to connect to CISCO APs using WPA with LEAP or PEAP or WPA-PSK and i do not manage to get it connected. The TyTn "sees" the network (SSID is hidden), tries to connect but did not manage to get connected. I tried with allmost any ROM available here. At the moment i am using the I-Mate on:
ROM version: 1.20.305.3
ROM date: 07/21/06
Radio version: 1.07.03.10
Protocol version: 32.41.7010.02H
Any help would be appreciated
Same problem here w/the Cingular 8525 and Cisco AP
Been the Cingular 8525 the same as the HTC TyTN, and using Cisco AP's at work I'm experiencing the same problems here.
The Cisco AP log shows a failure on the TCP/IP handshake when my 8525 tries to authenticate. We're also using WPA-PSK. Cisco support analyzed the log and found no explanation on why it cannot complete the 3 way handshake.
I can use WPA-PSK in my home network with a D-LINK DI-524 w/o any problems.
The next test will be to try a Linksys/Cisco router and WPA-PSK at a friends place, also I will try WEP (just for testing) at work and if I can w/o any encryption on the Cisco AP that is giving me problems.
I'll also try contacting HTC Support.
Thanks to anyone that could help, I will post any results of my tests.

The Wizard doesn't seem to support AES. Maybe other HTC devices have the same problem. I've also had trouble with routers running in dual AES/TKIP mode. Try setting TKIP only.
WM5 does not support AES. WM6 supports!!!
Entering the following line in the Cisco AP Config fixed it for me:
dot11 wpa handshake timeout 1000
I too am having troubles with the tytn and cisco AP's.
Ive done some testing
Encryption: none works
Encryption: WEP64/128 works when entering code in HEX
Encryption: WPA-PSK (HEX KEY, 64 digits) works
Encryption: WPA-PSK (ascii, 8-63 digits) FAILS
I will try the dot11 wpa handshake timeout 1000 later today, hope it fixes it.
Also noticed that my Hermes won't connect to my parents router (SSID hidden, WPA-PSK of about 16 digits). Somewhat frustrating, but never mind. Router in question is a Thomson Speedtouch 5xx (can't remember exact model number).
Go into Wireless LAN & Power Mode & max it out to Best Performance.
Same problem here... with my Tytn and an old 3com OfficeConnect b.
No way to enable WEP encryption (authentification will always fail).
Working perfect now with data encryption disabled: connection security made by letting only authorized mac-address to connect.
This way is also more secure than WEP encryption, am I right?
I will try the dot11 wpa handshake timeout 1000 later today, hope it fixes it.

Neither of these fixed it.
Its like the Hermes will only accept 64bit Hex key, which is fine but one of my other devices will only accept upto 63bit Ascii key
I had issues with my Cisco 1100 AP's and read somewhere on Cisco's website that QoS must be disabled on the Radio interface to get WPA/WPA2 to work:
Code:
interface Dot11Radio0
no dot11 qos mode
It worked for me

ADB100: Tried your code, still not working
Ive gotten WPA to work but only when useing the full 64digit key in HEX,
I think the Tytn has troubles with using ascii in WPA.
I had the same problem as the starter of this topic with Linksys WAG200G router, just couldn't set up to connect with WPA, so I switched back to disabled security with restriced access on trusted MAC address, and now it works like a charm.
WPA-PSK
Works for me. I have a Linksys WRT54G, and an 1100 AP. Connects to either of them seamlessly.
Just to add some more info in case anyone else stumbles on this thread.. had very same issues with WM5 on stock Hermes (T-Mobile VarioII). Had to unprotect the netork and rely on MAC filtering
Installing WM6 using Black 2.5 (now on 3.0) sorted the problem immediately. It seems some routers expect certain things from the device when using encryption that WM5 can't always provide (AES has already been mentioned). Yet another god reason to upgrade to WM6
Router here is Philips SNB 5600.
Hi
I'm having a similar problem with my Orange M700 (HTC Prophet) and Netgear DG834G.
Anyone any great ideas???

ATOM and WPA-PSK ??

Hi,
can O2 ATOM use WPA-PSK ?
I am setting my AP and my atom - and no packets are seen on the AP !
("control" laptop connects fine)
ugilad,
Yes the Atom uses WPA-PSK. I am running WPA-PSK at home and it works perfectly.
i also have a wireless network running WPA-PSK encryption and i can connect without any problems. upgrade to the latest firmware for the atom if you haven't already as it has a better wireless manager. another thing to note is whether you have mac address filtering on your network in which case you would need to add the mac address of your atom to the wireless router's list.
WRT54GX v2
does anyone have any success using WPA-PSK with Atom Exec on Linksys WRT54GX v2?

Wifi loses WPA key

Ikeepgetting problems with my BA losing the WPA key - is this normal? I have an HP 4700 running WM2003 which never has this problem?
same here.
yep its always been a prob for me even with WM5
I switch by router to WEP now its fine.... (less secure but no hassle.)

WPA-PSK / AES encryption

Ok I have Helmi's WM6 ROM and I am desperately trying to find a way to get the wireless functionality to connect to a router at work which *must* negotiate via WPA-PSK / AES.
Is there *any* way I can get my device to negotiate via AES, I can only see TKIP.
Thanks in advance
John
I have tried searching the forums for "AES" but no posts were returned, which is odd. I have also tried searching for encryption but there doesnt seem to be any relevant posts.
because i think that the device does not support it
Thanks xplode, I feared as much. One would hope that it would be possible in software, and that the wireless network layer would be upgradable via software.
Which router do you have? Most of them can be set up to allow either AES or TKIP or a combination of both...
PoGa
Poga,
I can connect to my router at home without any issues whatsoever, however it is the router at work that I can not connect to. I have no control over the authentication methods of the router, and the sysadmin will not change the protocols to suite my wireless tastes.
Ho hum
I've recently upgraded my BA to WM6, and without making any changes to my wifi router (Netgear DG834G v3), it now will NOT connect! I was and still am using WPA/TKIP security.
Previously on the original vanilla Orange SPV M2000 WM2003SE o/s it connected fine.
Interestingly, if I disable all wireless security on my router, the BA connects up just fine.
Downgrading back to WM2003SE does not restore WPA/TKIP connectivity to my router.
I've tried a couple of Helmi's WM6 roms and am currently running DVH's WM6 5.60.01 build 18548 with the same frustrating results.
All my WM6 upgrades on my HTC Tytn (SPV M3100) don't have any issues with wifi connectivity. Odd...
I'm pretty sure it's not the router as I've tried it with a 2Wire ADSL access point too and it's the same.
Any ideas guys?
Same thing is happening to me... No WPA connectivity.
No security in router and all OK
WPA on BA
Actually the devise supports it! But there are no drivers!
As I had WM5, WPA-PSK worked fine, but in WM6 it is not implemented...
Just a question, would it be possible to import and use WM5 drivers and what esle necessary, from WM5 to WM6?
In WM5 It worked OK thats right!!
Is the drivers the answer to the problem?
the drivers we use in any WM6 rom are from WM5 so it is understandable to not work quite well
here WPA-PSK with TKIP encryption is working just fine - my router is Linksys WRT54GC
AES encryption is not supported by the BA WLAN Driver
The hardware of the BA dor Wifi ins't the same as any other PDA device?
Can we copy the drivers from another device to our beloved BA?
i don't think so, if it was that easy my roms would not have wlan issues at all
nice one xplode!! dum coment

MDAIII can´t connect to WLAN with WPA

Hi,
two of my MDAIII-devices can+t connect to myWLAN-Router with WPA/TKIP.
(Router W701V from German Telekom,)
The Connection can´t be established.
Without any Sec or WEP it might be possible
One MDA runs with WM5 the other WM6. ==> the same Error?
What´s the problem?
My MDAvario4 runs perfect with WPA on the same router
regards
rob
