Hi guys,
Well I have searched everywhere and found nothing.
Well my college has wifi but it uses a proxy to access the internet.
So in Internet explorer on my desktop/laptop there is a direct option in the lan settings to specify a proxy ip and prot.
how do i do the same for my xda2s running 5.0.
thanks
Hello,
The way to go about doing this is to set up a proxy server under Start> Setings>Connections>Connections. Under My Work Network, select "Set Up My Proxy Server" and check the boxes for "This Network connects to the internet" and "this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet". Click on the "advanced" setting which should open up a window where you can choose your proxy port and enter your port address & numbers. Note when using pass through or any other connection that doesnt use the same proxy, make sure you turn your proxy port settings off (by unchecking the "this NW uses proxy port" check box). I hope this solves your problem.
Alternatively, a solution I've found which works is to use Opera Mobile - you can specify an HTTP and/or HTTPS proxy to use (in the form of hostname/iport) and then when you connect it just asks you to authenticate against it and boom: you're good to go.
No more faffing about with My Work Network, half the time I could never get connectivity with my Alpine when I did it like that (which meant it tried to dial up to the GPRS)... However if I'm not using Opera for one reason or another, I will use the My Work Network method with my TyTn. Both ways work just as well, I just think the Opera solution is neater because you can just set all your wifi networks as 'connects to the Internet'.

I have a O2 XDA-EXEC Pocket PC to take advantage of our WiFi network at work. I am having problems setting up my WiFi connection and cannot seem to find out what to do to resolve.
When using my laptop wifi connect I set up the following
My network name (iiscwlan)
Authentication WPA
Data Encryption TKIP
802.1x EAP Type as PEAP.
Then under configuration of PEAP I uncheck Validate Server Certificate and all connects perfectly
TO KNOW MORE DETAILS ABOUT THIS CONNECTION VIST http://www.serc.iisc.ernet.in/LAPTOP_ WN_conf.htm
With the O2 XDA-EXEC I do the same but there is no configuration setting under PEAP to enable me to uncheck Validate Server Certificate. Every thing I do while attempting to connect using the O2 XDA-EXEC I get the following error messages:
Server Validation Error - The server certificate is issued by an unknown authority
and
Cannot log on to the wireless network. This network requires a personal certificate to positively identify you.
Does anyone have any idea how to disable validate server certificate under Windows Mobile 5.0???
plzz help me with this problem i do lot of my work with wi-fi ...........................

I'd like to see where this is also? With PEAP (or EAP-TLS) you only get the option to select a Client Certificate. When it attempts to connect you do get a dialogue box to login with a Username, Password & Optional Domain, however I don't see anywhere to disable the verification of the Server Certificate?

Turns out you have to add a reg key:
\HKLM\Comm\EAP\Extension\25\ValidateServerCert=dword:00000000
Look in the wiki for who to add them if you dont know how.
Hello,
I have a big problem with Android on my Galaxy S can not collegrmi the corporate network as if the phone does not pass the PROXY connection it provides a set APN with proxy on port 8080 and authenticate. if I link the phone to the PC mode WiFi RIEC tamite the Galaxy to navigate with the browser of your PC use Chrome.
then the problem could be between your phone and the ISA server?? or it could be that your browser does not allow me to set the proxy and the gateway 8080??.
Thanks for the replies
Sorry but Nobody will be able to help you unless you write this in normal English! My English is quite good and I can't understand what the problem is exactly!

Sorry but hahahahahaha.
I think you cant connect to your corporate network amirite?
You can connect the phone as a hotspot on your pc.
You will have to ask your IT guy for the proxy settings for your corporate network.
I think the problem is due connections which require apn with proxy authentication

there is no private APN
but there are private Wireless Access Point (WiFi)
WAP is not the same as APN
APN is used by the cell phone to provide 3G/HSDPA over the air
if you have trouble authenticating to your WiFi at work, then as your IT guy for the authentication method.
if they use a browser authentication, you should be able to login after you type in your credentials
you mean VPN?

I use proxy server for wifi and cell phone business to Provide
3G/HSDPA over the air.
I made the following settings on Galaxy D created new APN:
Name :****
APN: Access Point
Proxy: local *****.*****.
Port: 8080
Username: my username
Password: *****
Authentication Type: PAP
Type APN: Internet
This configuration works on Windows Mobile 6.5 Phone and
work on Galaxy S.
Do you have suggestions this is a big problem because if a Galaxy
phone business.
Nobody can find a solution to this problem?
May can help but can u explain again the real problem.
U didnt get any connection ?
Apn settings are only to manage connection between phone nd gsm provider.
But listen to u..

i'm proxy business proxy authentication required
Sorry, but your post is not very clear. Anyway you should set a local APN only if somehow your company has a private GPS/UMTS network, since the APN is used when connected to the telephone network.
If you are connecting via WiFi the APN has nothing to do with that.
Instead go to the WiFi setup screen, select 'New network' and choose company network to setup your authentication parameters.
Short version in Italian:
l'apn non c'entra niente a meno che tu non abbia una rete cellulare privata nell'azienda, che mi sembra improbabile. Devi configurare la rete WiFi a mano dalla schermata di configurazione WiFi.

You really dont know what ur talking about, this guy is using the ACCESS POINT of his company, yes .. it exists !!
I got exactly the same problem, we also use our own APN from the company.
I get a message from the proxy itself: "Authentication required" it doesnt matter if i fill in the Username and Password or keep it blank, somehow it doesnt recognize the credentials, and the proxy keeps showing this message.
The account i use is able to get on internet, with Windows Mobile i dont have any problem with the same settings.
I'm busy mailing HTC about it, but i have to get passed their default answers like:
Did u trying to send an SMS to blahblah with "internet", so u will get the internet settings ... bs answers ..
Anyway, if i get a solution, ill post it here, otherwise ill send them all back !
Edit: I have HTC Legend's btw, so it's probably Android OS related ...

You can have ur own private APN, so it will make an connection to the provider, they will link you to your company APN and from there you can get on the company network with VPN.
Offcourse it works if u use the default APN off the provider, bcause u dont need any credentials for that ... and there's where the problem occures .. at the credential thingy.
SIM -> Provider -> company APN -> VPN -> Company Network -> Proxy -> Internet
So then, it seems like this is going back to the VPN settings...

Ok, and what's ur story to support what ur saying exactly ?
Why does it work perfect with Windows Mobile .. same VPN etc. ?
Edit: I had some contact with HTC, they advised me to shutdown the proxy server and try again ... so i asked this person to ask someone who is more technical and knows what the function of a proxy server is in the first place.
They told me a technical guy will call me in 1 day, and that was a week ago already. To be continued ....
most corporate or business networks, needs VPN credentials to login either via the proxy or via the VPN settings
but both are VPNs
depending on the requirements of your intranet, you might need to have your certificates input in one or the other profile
also some networks will require you to import a SSL certificate, or similar keys, specially when dealing with Cisco VPNs... which i'm pretty sure there is no way to get it to work properly with the SGS until they improve the software or release a 3rd party VPN apps for Android

The working Windows Mobile devices don't use certificates either, and it works.

The VPN is running at the provider, when i have a connection, i can access all internal systems ... the only problem is the way out, the proxy. It's not like every mobile device is installed with VPN software. Or maybe i don't understand ?
Hi all.
I have detected a bug in authentication type option when configuring a new APN for 3G connection.
In my company, mobile devices connect via 3G connection to corporate network resources. The authentication is provided by our corporate RADIUS server. For reasons not related to this issue, the RADIUS server only provides PAP authentication.
So I have set in TF101G's APN configuration username and password and entered PAP authentication type, but I cannot access to my network resources behind APN.
I have obtained some log and sniffer traces from our corporate RADIUS server where I can observe that TF101G always tries to authenticate using CHAP. So that's the reason why authentication fails.
I've also tested it with samsung smartphones and tablets and it works Ok!!
So I would be pleased if you could verify this same behavior in TF101G. But you would need to obtain sniffer traces from authentication process to verify.
Please, could you confirm this behavior?
Many thanks in advance and best regards,
Ernesto.

I am trying to connect to eduroam (a university WiFi network that's rather popular), however the phone never really connects. The settings that are supposed to be used are:
EAP method - PEAP
Phase 2 authentication - MSCHAPV2
CA certificate - Unspecified
Identity - <my name>@<university>.edu
Anonymous identity - blank
Password - <my password>
However, now with Android 7, I cannot select unspecified for the CA certificate, only "Use system certificates" and "Do not validate". None of those options work.
There is an app called SecureW2 JoinNow that is supposed to automatically connect to the types of networks eduroam is with a custom CA certificate. Even after using this app to connect to the WiFi, all the phone does is attempt to connect. Everything works fine in Android 6.
Any ideas?
Have you found a solution to this? I am having this same problem trying to get my Pixel XL to connect my work WiFi which includes a private network and Eduroam. Had no problems on previous Android builds prior to 7 when you could leave "Use system certificates" as "Unspecified".

Actually, I am able to join without problem now on my pixel as opposed to my Nexus 6P. I would try the app SecureW2 JoinNow. It was what allowed me to finally connect on my 6P, though when I tried it on my Pixel it didn't work and I had to use just the OS's wifi connection dialog box and selecting use system certificate and only entering my username in the username field, and my universities domain in the domain field.

My solution was to change ca certification to none which worked briefly so I cleared both the caches in twrp which seemed to solve it for me.
