Not able to connect to office vpn

Hi Guys!
I am unable to connect to my office vpn using my Htc touch HD. (Windows mobile 6.1) I have been able to configure my VPN by giving IP, Username and Password but not able to connect.i Get the error VPN server problems. verify your username and password is correct. If problem continues restart the device.
I have checked all the information and it is correct..still the problem remains. Anything that i might be doing wrong ?
I have configured Vodafone connect services on my phone for gprs/edge. i have no modems configured to my work network? Should i configure it same as vodafone and then try? It doesnt even work even on wifi..
Please suggest what should i be doing?
My office has a cyberoam UTM installed..do i need to enter any additional settings in it even if it works great with my laptop.
P.S. I am able to connect thru my computer with same settings but not thru HD.

wireless connecting but no internet

Hi everyone...
I have a touch HD that is not getting anything from the Internet even though it is connected to the wireless network. I was told that this problem started when the new proxy server was implemented and it applies to all windows mobile devices. I have checked the proxy settings and they are right. The Internet works fine at home... it just does nothing at my work.
Any ideas would be highly appreciated.
By the way... I have tried the solutions mentioned around here - like changing the channel - and nothing works.

Hi,
im facing the same problem and i suspect my WLAN access point. It works on all Wireless unless mine at home. I`m using a Zyxel Router.
Are you using DHCP? The answer from zyxel was to change the ip settings on my HD to static - means manual IP, Gateway and DNS.
It works now for a minute or so but then again dead. Now using data flat from my mobile company.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Nils

Thanks for your reply...
I have tried that.. but I cannot get anything to work...
I will try again... although one solution I want to try is to find a way to share my laptop's connection with my mobile and use it while I am close to it... but wireless connections cannot be share it seems...
anyway, thanks.

sounds more like it's you adhoc wifi on the laptop which is the problem
you have to set it up to work on the laptop for it to ever share with a pda

Actually it connects to the wireless router. There are three access points at work and I have tried to connect to them all. The only difference between these and my home wireless connection is the proxy server at work. I tried every possible solution with no success.
Anyway.. I will try something new when the weekend is over.
Thanks anyway.

OK. So this is how it is:
I got the internet to work by using a fixed IP instead of the dynamic IP assigned to me by the DNS. Once I supplied my username and password I could access the Internet. However, the touchflo interface cannot access it.
Is there a way to configure the HTC touch flo interface to set the proxy for it?
Regards

Wi-Fi router

All
I have my htc setup to both internet sharing and Wi-Fi connection on my work PC with a lan connection. On both of these connections e.g. wired USB and wireless i can get the internet for about 3 minutes then it stops working. Is there some sort of block? I did see a while back that the WiFi app has no restrictions...
Any help would be superb.
Cheers

Thats a little odd, there is certainly no block and I have had the wifi router running for a good 30-40 minutes without failing.
what part is failing, is the phone no longer running the wifi router, or is the pc no longer getting internet on that network connection?
If you need help on how to find this info just reply and I can walk you through some more diagnostic steps.

The phone is still running just the internet stops on the machine. I have to stop the wi fi on the phone then start again then connect. I think it might be t-mobile but the internet on the phone is fine

are you in the uk?
if you connect your laptop to the phone via the wifi router you should be able to right click the network logo, click on status and view the wifi network info, it should tell you in there if it has internet access on that network connection.
If you try this again and when it fails check this status window and see if windows is seeing an internet connection or not?
when the net fails again try and visit http://72.14.203.100/ (this should be the google homepage) if you see google then there is a dns problem if it still says network timeout or failed to connect or something like that then we will have to dig further.

LOL thanks for your help. I am in the UK. ive been working in IT for the last 12 years and I know and have done the test, its not the machine it has something to do with the phone or t-mobile network

Sorry to hijack your thread a little, but I'm on the T-Mobile Network in the UK too (except I'm using a Touch Pro with a custom ROM), and although I can make connections from the PC to websites using the IP address, the DNS isn't working so I can't resolve domain names.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Steve.

It must be the phone then since I do use wifi router, I am on t-mobile and in the UK and I do not experience this :S
I seem to be saying this more and more but maybe you should try a hard reset and see if that fixes the problem?

This is likely an issue with the way your machine has been setup to connect to the wifi network. Try visting the properties of the network and vieing the dns settings for the tcp/ipv4, It should be set as Obtain DNS server addresses automatically. If it is set like this then try setting it too 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 these are googles, dns servers if this works for you then you could stick with this or do some further digging as to why you are not getting the dns server addresses automatically like you should be.

Setting the DNS entries to Google's makes it work, but attempting to get the DNS Server's automatically leaves me with no ability to resolve domain names. How strange?
Thanks for the workaround, not sure where to start looking to fix it properly.

Hey guys,
I am new to this wifi router thing and got the following questions:
1. To be able to use it, you must have data connection with your provider. Am I right?
2. By any chance, can I use this system by using a sim taken out of a prepaid mobile broadband dongle and inserted into my device (htc touch HD)?
3. Once I get connected can I surf the internet/check emails etc from within the device itself without the need to use a laptop?
Please don't mind these basic stupid questions.
cheers

[Q] cannot connect to EAP university network!

Hi
I'm currently using the stock 3.1 rom and prefer not to install custom roms. I can't connect to my university wifi network which uses EAP network. Is there any way to fix this issue?
Thanks a lot!

MY uni uses EAp with MSCHAP, I have no problems connecting, however they provide instructions for how to do it as well, have you spoken to your Uni's IT dept ?

[/QUOTE]=boganslaw;17588042]MY uni uses EAp with MSCHAP, I have no problems connecting, however they provide instructions for how to do it as well, have you spoken to your Uni's IT dept ?[/QUOTE]
I haven't talked to them, but when trying to connect, we put in ID (email) and password. Then it usually connects just fine. My previous tablet worked just fine and my laptop worked fine with the network too. Is there something else that I need to put in in other spaces when I type my ID and password? There were spaces for other stuff, but I have no idea what those are. HOWEVER, other devices connected just fine without filling out those..
EDIT: I just checked my university website for how to connecting it, and it says it's PEAP type, and WPA2, AES, etc..not sure what those are, but..
And it also says that the authenticate method is Secured password (EAP-MSCHAP v2). So I assume it's the same as yours? But I don't know why it wasn't connecting.. It kept saying "connecting..." and does nothing. I can connect to home network just fine. Help please!

I've had the same problem with our work network, the fix from the thread gets everything back in line and it usually sticks for quite a while before popping up again.

Android Cannot Connect to Proxy enabled Wifi

After searching and trying out several ways to connect my GT to my school's proxy authenticated wifi network I gave up. Then I thought about my ipod touch, registered my wifi mac address with the IT guys and voila it was so easy to configure proxy just my entering user name and password I I can surf.
Now why on earth did android neglect the proxy wifi I have no idea. Furthermore, the adhoc wifi does not also work OTB and will only work if rooted. Why?
I am beginning to regret purchasing android device.....

Hi, what is the specific problem-is it connecting ok to wireless but not authenticating to your web proxy server? apps like asproxy ( http://alsubang.github.com/ASProxy/index.html) should work, but haven't tried it myself....
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

I have tried asproxy and it did not work. And yes it connects to the usual hotspots like starbucks. I am also rooted so I am able to connect to adhoc from my nokia phone(joiku hotspot).
I also know some friends who have the 10.1 and the asus transformer and they also cannot connect to the schools proxy. A visit to the IT department confirmed that Android is not supported.
A lot of people in our community are already put off getting an android device because of this.
