I wish to know -- where are the WIFI settings held-(I do a lot of tweaking for my HD and sometimes I mess it up, but the guy who knows wifi password of my place, lives in Garkalne, Im in Adazi ( about 10 km difference)--my wifi goes only about 20m )
So I need to backup my wifi settings or atleast the password -- where is the password held -- in registry, windows, anywere --- just name it and how to get there!!??
well access your wireless router with the provided ip address.
i think it may be 192.168.1.1 and you will easily see it around wireless security.

Sorry -- I didnt understand that --- can you give me a step by step
My wifi network is password protected it has two networks 1.- provides internet, password protected.;;;;; 2.- doesnt provide internet, not password protected, Its for those cases when he forgets the password for the 1st network so he can bypass it and go straight to the internet-- I dont know how he does it
Im still learning English
The security information is stored within your WIFI router.
As to how to access and maintain it, it varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. I have five different ADSL modem/router in the past few years and all of them has different way of getting into the configuraiton menu. Some needs me to type in 10.1.1.1, the others uses different address. You need to refer to your user manual for your equipment (if you can't find it , make a call to your ISP's support center, and they will definitely be able to tell you).
Once you're in the configuration menu. navigating to the place where the security setting is kept again differ in each case, and again you should read your user manual to find out, or call up your ISP's support centre for help.

It's in Start/setting/connection/WIFI/Advance.
The Main tab lets you change which WIFI network you want to connect to. When you click on change network, you can pick whichever one that shows as available. Once you click on it, if that access points requires Authentication, by clicking the next button you will specify all the details such as network key, etc.
Hope this is what you're looking for.
The power mode tab lets you specify if you want more performance or battery life
----> when I enter the password for the wifi network-- I wish to know where my THD saves the password----the guy who knows wifi password doesnt give it to me so I want to find it on my device---where is it saved on blackstone
Ok i think everyone is confused now.
Please explain in detail what you want to do again.
He doesn't know the wifi password to "his" network because the guy who knows the password won't give it to him.
He's asking if a plaintext version of the password is saved in the Touch HD somewhere for "his" network.
I find it a little sus that he doesn't know the password for "his" own network, or that the person who set it up won't give him the password, so he's trying to find it this way.

Help...
I have a HTC 3600 (handy as I'm posting in this forum ) and I have been trying to connect it to my work wireless setup. This is fairly locked down and has a hidden SSID and requires me to enter credentials (user name, password) to access the web. I can successfully connect to the Wi-Fi, I am issued with IP address etc but can't then take the next step to connect it to the web.
I have found an area to add a proxy with username and password - I do this but still nothing. One odd thing is that when I then go back to try editing the proxy settings 9 times out of 10 it has vanished and I have to create it again!!
This is causing much hair pulling!
Any direction/help in this would be great as I am now a little stuck.
I am on AX3L v3.0.9 build.
Cheers
Update
I have found out that if there are two settings in the connections summary - such as 'My Work Network' and in my case 'etisalat UAE' the proxy setting never gets lost. Is this a quirk, is there something that I am not understanding (I know the obv. answer to the last question is yes!)
This now brings me to my nest challenge which is how do you arrange these connections? What I mean is that if I am at work/home and have a wi-fi link active how do I get the device to pick this in preference to a GPRS connection which it should use at all other times? I have tried looking for some kind of guide so I can work through this my self but no luck so far..... if anyone knows of such a thing or can point me in the right direction then please reply to this.
Cheers
I have a major issue with my college WiFi network, I can join from every OS, but not from WM (even Symbian can do it!)
My university uses a certificate-based wpa-tkip, I have installed the certificate on my Touch Pro, but I can't login...

Same issue here. This connection would be very useful, because the whole campus is covered by wifi and since I spend lots of hour there...
After installing the certificate, while attempting the connection, a further username+domain is required. That does't happen with a pc or a mac.
Some specs about the authentication:
- Auth: WPA
- Encr: TKIP
Certificate:
- Sha1 RSA @ 1024 bit
Did someone succeed in logging into similar networks?

Are you using Schaps Advanced config 3.2? If so then you need to make a couple of changes.

Do you mean enabling:

No I mean setting:

And Wi-Fi delay after boot: 0
I could not connect - I changed these settings, rebooted and it resolve my problem.
I hope this works for you too.

Sorry for the bump, but I think I have found the issue.
When I try to connect to the network and configure the access wm tells me that there is no personal certificate, but I have installed the certificate.
But I noticed that the provider certificate is an Intermediate, not a personal certificate!
So I can't configure anything, nor connect!
There is something wrong with the certificate installation, why it is located in Intermediate and not in Personal?
EDIT: I've renewed my certificate, and now it's in the personal tab, the previous one was without the personal Key, this time must be it
It's a no-go ç__ç
If I choose PEAP autentication the phone locks up and needs a soft-reset when I try to connect
I've solved it!
Now I can successfully connect to the WiFi Area!
A tutorial is on the way
Here I am, sorry for the long delay.
I solved my problem following this procedure:
Install the certificate on your device (The certificate must have the user key emended)
You must edit this registry key: HKLM\Comm\EAP\Extension\25\ValdateServerCert change it to 0
Reboot your device
Now you can create your network settings, for my network I had to set:
Network name: The network SSID
This is a Hidden network: True
Autentication: WPA
Data Encryption: TKIP
EAP Type: PEAP (Select your certificate from the list)
That's it, now it should work, or at least it's working on my network
Hi!
u have a little typo in there: its HKLM\Comm\EAP\Extension\25\ValidateServerCert ... and unfortunately this solution does only prevent WM to check for a serverside Certificate but does NOT solve the bug with the configuraton - popup:
o When coming to the page where u can change the auth method from certificates to PEAP, then the popup will nag us. No chance to get into the peap config to set MsChap V2 for example. We *can* prevent the popup by renaming the key for the certificate method HKLM\Comm\EAP\Extension\13 to HKLM\Comm\EAP\Extension\130 for example (so the popup is elimanted because then peap has the lower number and is handled first) *but* its still impossible to get into that damn config...
*That* Problem seems to be unsolved so far.. :-(
One of my employees told that he managed to get into the network by simply pressing "ok" at this popup, closing the wizard and when connecting to the network the username / password (mschap v2) Dialogue came -> and he was online. But unfortunately this was un-reproduceable
Any hints highly appreciated (for getting into a secured network by mschapv2 on user/password basis)
Yeah, I'm having the same problem as well...
I tried to follow the intructions to log on the wireless network available at the hospital I work, but these instructions are for desktop computers and notebooks and they have steps that I can't accomplish in my blackstone. The instructions are the following (for windows XP):
-add a new network with the name: wifiuel
-choose WPA2 autentication
-choose AES cryptography
-choose PEAP access, go to properties and uncheck all options. Also, at autentication method EAP-MSCHAPv2, click on configure and uncheck the option to use the logon's name and password automaticly.
There are a few more steps, but from this last one I can´t go on. When I tap on the properties buton on my blackstone, I get the following warning: "Cannot log on to the wireless network. This network requires a personal certificate to positively identify you."
I've tried to make the registry tweaks available in this post, but I still can't connect. The network manager says I´m connected but at the same time, the little locker icon is also shown in front of the network's name and I just can't access any website.
The real thing is, as licht77 said, I can get rid of the WM checks for a serverside Certificate but it does NOT solve the bug with the configuraton, as I still can't get into the peap config to set MsChap V2.
Can anybody help us?
Same on My Rhodium TP2
My University settings are:
SSID: 4csuuseonly (visible)
Security: WEP-enterprise
Encription: TKIP
cert: PEAP
than i have to put Username and Password; but i could never get to that step.
It did worked couple of time for me,
What I did was I created a LEAP in wifi settings with SSID, USERID and PassWord
then I enter the SERVER ,ID n Password Under "Enroll" tab in wifi settings
It did work few times; I don't know if that may help
We all Need a Solid Solution
Edit: I tried SecureW2 software to connect , Played with the software for two days. Did the reg hack, didn't help either.
Finally I uninstalled the secureW2, and guess what after the soft Reset, when i hit connect it did ask me Id and Pass.
And Now it connects within two seconds every time I go to school.
Couldn't really figure out How did it worked
I forgot my Wifi password, and I wish to recover it--- my Touch HD uses the wifi and it has the password, but how to get it from HD
This password is the thing which keeps me from updating my ROM for 2 weeks now!!!!
bump!!!! --- cmon people - someone must know
might seem silly, but why not just log into your router and change the password? then you'll know what it is
I cant -- I dont know my routers password either!!!! I was given wifi password but I lost the note with it!!--- and I cant reset my router cuz the router has some special "data" in it which makes it operate a bit diferently (give privileges and block some unwanted traffic) !!!
So any program, or which is the file on which the wifi password is held - then I could just back that file up!!!!

would not know how to get the password but you can export the settings and the password
use RAPIConfig
(you use it on your PC when your phone is connected with ActiveSync)
edit the rapiconfigin.xml to look like so;
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic-query type="Wi-Fi" recursive="true"/>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
and run the batch, that will export all your WiFi settings to rapiconfigout.xml
which you can convert to a .reg file (or a CAB, etc) and import after any flash
bit of a long shoot, but you can also try something like this, see if anything works through "My Mobiler" or naively on PPC
hope that sets you on the right path

ok ppl - listen i try the method Sir.B suggested,,, but when I open rapiconfigout.xml file -- in the password field it still shows asterisks (*) it cant see my password!!!, someone please help!!!

Can someone please post a step by step procedure for putting a static IP into
my Tab 500?
instructions for static IP relevant on my tab version, android 3.1 (4.010.11_COM_GEN2):
open up wifi networks and settings. Find your network you wish to connect to and long hold it. Select Modify Network. Select IP Settings drop down and change from DHCP to Static. Scroll down again and type in your own IP addressing schema for the IP address and Gateway. Don't forget to add a network prefix length, even if you simply type in the suggested 24. I recommend using your ISP's DNS servers unless you are trying to use DNS for filtering and protection (such as opendns).

Thanks for prompt reply. What does 'long hold" mean? My Tab does not ever get
an IP assigned to it by DHCP, so I want to try a static IP to get wi fi working.
I will try your procedure when I get home from work today and will post results.
You're welcome. By long hold, i simply mean to tap the setting and hold it for a moment rather than let go right away. I am sure there is an official term for that, it just escapes me at the moment.

Thanks again. I'll try a Factory Reset first. Then, if that doesn't work, I will try a static IP address.
Problem solved. Static IP not required.
I tried the Factory Reset from the settings menu. It took a few minutes to reset and reboot. A s soon as I went to the Wi-Fi settings, it found my router, got great signal strength, and was asked for my password. It then connected immediately.
I then went to settings, and looked for any updates. It found the latest update, so I downloaded and installed OS v3.1. It took about 1 hour to complete the download and installation. My tab works great now. I could not be more pleased with it.
Many thanks to all on this forum and elsewhere who contributed their suggestions and advice.
I turned on wifi but was unable to access / change my IP to a static IP . I couldnt find the option under wifi - advanced as well. The new options allow me only to change my Signal Band (2.4gz/5gz) but not change my IP address or put a static IP.
Any thoughts?
It's right there
Press and hold your connected access point
Check Show advanced options
Click IP settings and change from DHCP to Static
Enter your IP/DNS
thanks i also had a problem but now i can enter my ip but the save button is unfortunately greyed out so stuck up in getting ip address can anyone help
ps: figured it out now working
thanks
saving of static IP is now per network instead of per wifi interface.
still not able to assign static ip

Just checked myself, glad to see this!
Long press on the network you want to change, click 'Modify network config'
Then you need to change the 'IP settings' pull down box from DHCP to Static, otherwise the rest will remain greyed out.
Hope thats all clear.
I have had the same problem.
Wouldn't is be a better option to have your router reserve a specific IP address for the MAC address of your Note? That way you won't have to change the settings on your Note when you want to connect to a different network.

It would, but that's a bit too technical for most users, as it requires going into advanced settings of your router. Most people don't even know their routers IP address, let alone configure MAC-level access!
Also the default setting is for DHCP on all networks, so the user doesn't have to worry when connecting to any network.
In ICS, they have introduced the option of allowing different IP settings for each network. In previous android versions, you could only have 1 global setting that affected all networks.
I like to use a static IP on my home network, but every over network I connect to requires DHCP. So previously, I had to disable Static IP to access other networks (or use an app called Wifi static!).
It's no wonder I was confused 'Wifi static' was no longer working

With the long press stuff --> modify network and add the static IP, it seems not work for me. My phone is a samsung galaxy s3.
Do u think the phone need to be rooted to gain superior access privilegde?
And my setup network @home is ad-hoc. So cant reserve any ip on a router.

if by "not work" you mean that you can't see an option to change from DHCP to static, it may simply be because the on-screen keyboard automatically appears at that setup page (so you can enter a password) and it obscures the options further down the page.
So, you need to:
1. long press on your connection to go into "modify network config"
2. press capacitive "back" key (or click "done") to reveal the bottom of the page
3. check the "show advanced" tick box
4. scroll down beyond the visible part of the page to get to DHCP setting.

here's my solution on my note ICS
1. long press wifi connection, enter your network password
2. change dhcp to static
3. fill ip address of your device
4. FILL NETWORK PREFIX OF YOUR STATIC WIFI NETWORK (NETWORK PREFIX is substitution of NETMASK ADDRESS (eg 255.255.255.255) see table here ttp://gabbtech.blogspot.com/2012/09/subnet-mask-address-dan-persamaannya.html
5. fill other requirement (gateway,dns,etc)
6. You should be able to click greyed out SAVE button now
