Some univeristies use a WLan called EduROAM.
http://www.eduroam.org/
But somehow HTC HD2 cant connect to it.Seems like a personal certificate is the problem.
Has anyone got this working on HD2 ?
It works on Nokia phones running Windows mobile 6.5
you need to download one of the latest version of securew2 client from your uni website or the developer's website. follow instruction to set up the connection given by your uni IT department.
I'm using eduroam connection now in UCL.
Thanks for your answer.
I downloaded securew2
But I still cant get it to work.
Do you have to provide this information on your campus ?
SSID: eduroam
authentication: WPA2
kryptering: AES
EAP-typ: PEAP
authentication: MSCHAP v2
For me WPA1 works better, also AES is wrong. Then you select "Secure W2" in the drop down box not peap. SecureW2 needs to be configured as well. Your university should provide you with that info. You usually don't need the radius part with the cert! That's just to protect you from connecting to the wrong network (and thus giving them your password).
Above information about WPA2 is from my campus informationsite.
After I made some settings on "Eduroam connection" i cant change them.
As soon as push eduroam it tries to connect.
The only way to change them is to install a new rom, so that the phone is
like it was from the first time.

I took my mobile to my University's IT Department and they set it up for me and it works great, I get all of my student emails directly to my mobile. Hope this helps.

ROM version ?
In my case,
I download SecureW2 personal client 2.04 ce, install it on my phone via active sync.
Settings>Menu>All settings>Connection>Wifi>Wireless networks>Menu>Add new
and start configuring the settings. Different network will have different settings.
I don't think ROM version matters in this case. It should work with your device, if you got the right SecureW2 client and settings set up on your phone.
Btw, IT department or university's website should provide sufficient information for you to set up the connection.
Good luck.
The IT people cant get it to work......
They say that they cant get it to work on HD2.
Thats why I turned to you guys.
Still no luck, secureW2 keeps asking for user/pass, and yes I know its the right user/pass. A friend at work tried his username and it doesnt workl either.
If I connect to Eduroam on my pc it works, so nothing wrong with user/pass

You might need to get another version of secureW2 client.
I tried a secureW2 client provided by my uni and i faced the same problem as you. It kept on prompting me for username and password. I changed to another client (SecureW2_Personal_Client_204_CE), downloaded from SecureW2 forum, and it worked great!
During the installation of the client, registration is needed, i could register and install it couple of times on my phone without any problem. However, yesterday when i tried to reinstall the client after upgrading my ROM, the installation failed at the registration part. Maybe because they stop providing the free version?
I managed to get it installed on my phone again via activesync though.
Cant find that version.
I downloaded version SecureW2_Enterprise_Mobile_313_GA_TRIAL.exe
bump..

Chalmers University of Technology uses Thawte premium server certificate for authentication.
What you need to do is this, go to Thawtes website and download their certificates:
(Apparently I cannot post links, but just google for "thawte root certificate" the file is at www dot thawte dot com slash roots)
The certificate you need is located in the folder Thawte Roots\Thawte SSLWeb Server Roots\thawte Premium Server CA\Thawte Premium Server CA.cer
Download that to your HTC HD2 and install it by just clicking it in the file browser on your phone.
Then you can just follow the instructions you found at their webpage.
Hope this helps.

how to connect to EDUroam
Firstly, this refers to connecting an HTC android phone (specifically the HTC Desire, but what I get from the web is that they are all much the same, these HTC android interfaces).
The problem starts when an innocent user looks for a WiFi network and finds eduroam. It then asks for not particularly relevant password information and cannot connect because the configuration of the default network setup is wrong. If you try to get the phone to forget that network it appears to do so that when you reconnect it still assumes that the connection was correctly set up. In order to get it to forget their network properly you have to enter the wrong password several times so that the phone thinks you have illegally trying to access the network. It then completely forgets.
The network discovery procedure will again come up with EDUroam, and the configuration should follow the instructions on the following website from Oxford University: <search for android eduroam oxford in Google>
In fact the names given on the HTC desire setup are slightly different. The important thing is that the EAP type should be PEAP, and the secondary type should be MSCHAPv2.
You then enter the username which will be effectively your registered e-mail address at your own institution, and then use as a password the thing eduroam calls "network access token" (16 lower case alphabetic character password generated for you if you buy your institution on request.
You then connect up and miraculously you have the connection you wish!
You should check that the connection is mobile roaming capability on your phone and checking that you really do have Internet and e-mail access as you wish through the WiFi connection directly.
I have been looking for the SecureW2 Personal Client 2.0.4 for Windows CE package (original filename: "SecureW2_Personal_Client_204_CE.zip"). I have been unable to find it and the sources given in this thread no longer exist or are no longer available.
If anyone has the file, please provide it.

I want to make a WiFi connection on my school. But I have to make some setting changes. I have the HTC Trinity with WM6.
I have to satisfy to these settings:
- Wlan network name: tue
- Security mode: 802.1x with dynamic WEP keys
- Authentication protocol: PEAP with MSCHAPv2
- Root certificaat: GTE Cybertrust Global Root
Where do I make these changes?
On your's school router or wifi access point in your school
but sadly I have to make these changes on my pda
According to school these are the settings specially made for smartphones/pda

If it is set on your's router in school, then your PDA or smartphone will see these settings automatically
Otherwise look in start-settings(instellingen)-connections(verbindingen)-wi-fi, there you can add new network connection and apply these settings
But that's the problem.. I can't apply these settings.
When I configure Netwerk Authentication I'll come till "Use IEEE 802.x network acces control"
When I select this and choose for PEAP and I want to change the Properties I get this message:
Warning
Cannot log on to the wireless network. This network requires a personal certificate to positively identify you

Where can I make and/or change this personal certification?
been having the same message, anyone knows where to find the certificate?
Hi,
So,
1. You want to connect wirelessly to your School's network, right? .......and that
2. The network settings that you stated in your opening post were given to you by your School Network Administrator, right? ......finally, that
3. Your School Network Administrator had indeed, ACTUALLY given authority to your device (HTC Trinity) in the Access Control List to access the school's network, right?
In that case, he (the School Network Administrator) MUST have assigned an IP Address to your device (or entered its MAC address and configured it as such, inside the router/wireless access point.
Did you make sure that he did actually do so? Ask him to confirm this for you. I'm saying this because if he (the School Network Administrator) hadn't configured your device to have access to your school's network, you'll be wasting your time trying to access it, 'cos as you know, it is a secure network hence, it can not identify your device.
The only way that your device could be identified to access the school's network (never mind the settings provided in your opening post), is only, and only if, it had been configured in the ACL - Access Control List within the router, otherwise every Tom, **** and Harry would simply access the school's network, willy-nilly and wreak all sorts of havoc. See what I mean?
If indeed, he (the School Network Administrator) had given you access to the school's network, just ask him or her to give you the IP Address that he assigned to your device and then enter it in the Wi-Fi configuration of your network in Trinity, as you had been doing and everything should work fine - no more headaches!!
BOTTOM LINE:
If there is no entry for your device in the Access Control List of the school's router/wireless access point, you've got no chance 'cos your device would be refused access at all times because the router/wireless access point does NOT recognise it.
You ask him (the School Network Administrator) to give access to your device - either by using it's MAC address or IP Address), then you'll be laughing 'cos then you'll be able to have access, wirelessly.
I do hope that this gives you pointers to help solve your problem 'cos that's the only solution that I can offer.

Sorry to bring alive an old post, but I have been receiving the exact same message requiring a "personal certificate." What I don't understand is that the network prompts me for my username/password - each device is not set up individually. For example, I can take my laptop to school and connect to the network as long as I have my username and password. What is the difference between XP and WM6 in this respect? Why can't I just enter my user/pass on my Wing and connect just like I would with a laptop?

This has bugged me for a long time with Windows Mobile 5/6 & 802.1x with PEAP (WEP & WPA/WPA2). You should in theory be able to just use MSCHAPv2 and a Username/Password to authenticate yourself but there seems to be no way of turning off the client checking the servers validity - i.e. having a valid & trusted certificate (you can disable this checking with Windows XP's 802.1x supplicant). So all you should need is the servers public certificate installed on your device.
When I was testing this a while ago I had some sucess but the 'personal certificate' message was a problem. In the end I just enrolled the device with the domains CA and have a personal certificate installed (as well as the CA's certificate which gets installed at the same time).
Enrolling for certificates is much easier now with Windows Mobile 6 and ActiveSync 4.5 since you can enroll the device from ActiveSync on the host PC.

Andy
Interesting, Andy,
I haven't yet had the chance to test this change yet, but a few searches has turned up a registry key that we can add -
(quoted from somewhere on the internet)
"The only thing you have to do is to add a DWORD Regestry Entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MAICHNE-->Comm-->EAP-->Extension-->25
Name:"ValidateServerCert"
Value: 1 to activate Validation, 0 to turn it off"
Have you tried making this change before just registering a certificate? If it doesn't work, do you remember the basic steps for retrieving a certificate from a computer via activesync? If I do transfer a certificate from a laptop, do I need to register the device with the administrator? It seems that everyone from the IT department I've talkd to has no idea what they're talking about.
I posted this in network forum but I don't think anyone reads that forum so I thought I'd try my luck here....
I'm trying to connect to a network share that is on a domain controller so uses domain level security/authentication instead of regular local computer authentication. When I try to connect to the computer I get an Action Failed message "Cannot connect shared path. The specified network resource or device is no longer available."
I checked through event logs on the server and it looks like the login/authentication went through just fine but the wm device seems to be rejecting it somehow....
Does anyone know what I might be able to do to fix this? Kind of a pain, I would like to be able to connect to my server's shares.
Thanks
and again no one replies
*cry*
How are you attempting to connect to the server shares?
Using what method?
PocketLAN?
I.E.?
Even though you authenticate against AD there should be a local administrative account on that box, try logging on using it. Also what are the permissions on that share, do you have access to it and is your account part of that domain?
Just my $.02 try using z2 PocketLan..
I've used it for quite a while on my Axim, and now on my 6800.. It allows you to connect to a network share, you supply it with your login credentials (Active Directory) and save the connection. It also comes with a bunch of other handy stuff like an IP range scanner, ping, yatta yatta ..

I use Resco Explorer and it doesn't seem to have any problems at all connecting to network shares on our domain controller at work.
i just tried on my domain, i can connect to shares on other pcs and servers, but not on the DC, maybe theres a setting that doesnt allow connections from non domain members
and just FYI, domain controllers dont have any local accounts
ya no local accounts... local computer accounts work fine but it won't connect using domain accounts to authenticate...
I'm not sure if this is a setting on the DC for authentication or if there is something I need to do on the wm device?
Zenoran: You still haven't told us how you're trying to connect. I can't tell you how to do it unless you tell me what sort of program you're using, or whatever. Capiche?
I use z2 PocketLAN without issue, accepts DC auth no problem. Do you use PocketLAN?

Oh sorry! Using Resco File Explorer... are there others I should try? I bought that program because it seemed to do everything. Will give PocketLAN a shot.
hmmm tried pocketLAN and it only locks up when I try to click on that server... bad bad...
something really fishy here because even non-authenticated user should be able to browse that server and see public shares... no one else have issue? maybe it's a server 2008 thing?

the domain enroll is a bit of an odd thing, i cant even find much documentation on it from microsoft, but from what i can tell it just integrates with an exchange server, provided the server has mobile device manager installed
im not even sure what features it enables
I'm an IT guy and I just got into smartphone PPCs for the first time after a long-time hiatus from PDAs when I used to be a Palm owner. After my last palm, a LifeDrive, got stolen I moved to a Moto Q wich was a big dissapointment OS wise, and I never really got into modding it or anything, just set my POP3 e-mail server and used it like that for 2 years (draw back was that I didn't have contact sync nore internal e-mail sync that got handled by my exchange server). My contract with that Q expired and I made the move to a Sprint Mogul with WM 6.1 Pro and I'm NEVER LOOKING BACK!!!
Anyways, enough about me, this is my first contribution so I wanted to do the little intro.
I had searched around a bit about how to get ActiveSync to sync my company's Exchange server through PPTP VPN (we don't have it published with a certificate for an actual push config) but all I found was info on how to setup the VPN itself, being an IT guy that was like pointing out the obvious to me as I had already got that running and connecting but couldn't get anything but the OWA site opening in IE and Opera.
Basically what I figured out was that I had to program a work URL exception in the Connections control panel under the Advanced tab. There I added my exchange server's IP address as a URL and used that IP to program the server under ActiveSync with all the usual credentials. I can't configure it to receive as items arrive, instead I had to let the configuration run on a 10 minute schedule. Every time the schedule is up I see the VPN connecting pop up and it syncs PERFECTLY and disconnects the VPN. (It doesn't turn on my screen each time, it just pops up if I'm using it; but that pop up can be turned off if it gets to annoying).
I don't know if anyone else knew about this but I though I'd share this info as I searched for a few days and found nothing, ended up figuring this out myself. If this is new info I'll post more detailed configuration information for those who desire it.
BTW, this is working over the Data Plan and WiFi as well.
Wow. your a god...
I been trying to figure why it kept disconnecting the vpn when it synced up.
Adding the work url exception works perfect...
(Im using WM6.1 on a Samsung Omnia)
Many Many thanks!
No problem dude! I'm surprised no one else has really found this helpful. Glad I could help!
BTW, those exceptions work very well for internal web sites as well. I use it to log in to web-based management consoles such as Symantec's Mail Security for Exchange, Symantec Endpoint, basically if you got an internal website of some sort you can access it through VPN using a Work URL Exception.
I was looking for this info too, i would like more detailed configuration information about this.
Thanx in advance...
Roland hendriks
What part of the configuration are you having trouble with? Configuring the VPN, the Exchange Server or the URL Exception?
Thanks
I personally am thankful for your information. Even if none of the other 1000s of readers out there say anything...
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Glad I could help! I know I broke my head over this one during the first week of me having a WM phone. I figured it out thanks to the Fdc Soft Task Manager using the Netstat utility. It let me know exactly what the network stack of the phone was trying to do and the URL exclussion I just stumbled upon and reading what the page said it lead me to believe that it might be a routing table for configured "WORK" connections. And it worked.
During the past month or two of using my exchange like this and switching around ROMs and cooking my own ones now I've noticed that having TCP Data Reconnect and Transmission Retry settings in your registry set to high will cause Active Sync to take a long ass time for it to actually route communications through the VPN connection. I noticed this after using custom ROMs wich some have these settings increased to ensure communications go through but they raise connection timeouts way to much. On my own custom ROM I've set these to defaults (2 and 4 respectively) and Active Sync only takes about 1 minute to start syncing onces you hit sync while you wait for it to dial the cellular line and the VPN.
you talk about the vpn..
i think you are in the very small percentage of ppl who can get that to work.
i have the activesync set to manual and have tried the vpn type to both IPSec/L2TP and PPTP
w/o success..i always get a UN PW error which i know cant be so..
i set the host ip to what was shown from "whatsmyip"..
searching for quite awhile, i see thousands of ppl who cant get it to work and have
never found a reliable method that works for anyone but the person who posted it.
if you could back track a little and post how to do it, there are probly
thousands of ppl who would find it very useful and really appreciate it.
thanx
Well one thing is how to setup a WM device's VPN client to connect to your VPN server and another is actually configuring your VPN server. Do you have a working VPN setup in your corporate network already? This usually is setup by having a static IP assigned to your corporate internet connection and a firewall configured to allow VPN access with all the necessary traffic and authentication routes.
If you don't have a static IP in your office and use a lower cost DSL or Cable connection you aren't SOL, for these types of connections you can use a service like dyndns.org to dynamically upadate your dynamic IP into a static dns name like: mycompany.dyndns.org for example. This requires you to setup your firewall or ISP modem to communicate with dyndns.org to report the changes. Most firewalls come with this funcionality already built-in, but most of them also call them by different names so you'd have to look up your equipment's documentation on how to report a dynamic dns service.
I would be happy to help you setup your VPN correctly but its more practicall for me to help you setup a checklist on which type of VPN you want to setup (IPSec or PPTP) and what your corporate network's infrastructure looks like and let you know what to look for in google; there is PLENTY of very helpful information on the web on how to setup VPN but first you have to know what you need and how you are going to achieve it and then you'll know what to look for.
Each setup is very particular to the customer's needs and the network infrastructure that is setup and how much security you want to use (IPSec is a naturally secured VPN tunnel protocol while PPTP is not secured by nature but can be secured with a Radius server in your DMZ validating authentication in an encruypted manner to your Active Directory service).
What I posted above will work for an already existing and working PPTP VPN connection wich I already had running for years in my office and I regularly use with my laptop to connect to my exchange server while on the road or at home. What I posted above is what is need to get your WM device to connect to an already functioning PPTP VPN server.
Hope this helps. And if I'm to help you make a checklist I need a lot of information:
Type of ISP (static IP or dynamic IP)
Type/Brand of firewall device
How the devices are connected together (dumb modem or internet router from your ISP to your firewall's WAN port or a full blown router provided by your ISP wich is patched into your firewall's WAN port)
Internal network configuration (both AD and Exchange on same server (SBS) or separated)
What amount of security you are looking for.
Send me some PMs and maybe I could at least point you in the right direction.
nttdemented: I'm doing the PPTP shuffle at the moment, and wanted to pick your brains..
The basic connection is running fine - e.g. when I add 192.168.0.1 as an Exception and go to http://192.168.0.1 in Pocket IE the VPN fires up and I see the page just fine.
I've also added '10.6.1.8' as an exception, but if I go to that address in PIE, I don't see any network activity (using ethereal/tcpdump) on the 'ppp0' server interface (I use Ubuntu server's pptpd) ...
Can I assume that your Exchange server is hosted on the same machine as your PPTP server? Some MS SBS or similar?
Even if I configure an http proxy (on the 192.168.0.1 IP) I see no activity when I try the 10.6.1.8 address. :/
thanks so much!!
that i didn't find/read about the "exceptions" option in WM before...
Somehow, when i got my phone, i got it to work without this workaround, it just worked, out of the box, no exception setting required. (VPN settings + exchange server location were enough)
But yesterday, from the one moment to the next, it suddenly stopped working.
In my efforts to get it to work again i deleted the exchange settings, but doing that, I deleted all my contacts and my agenda! I was in big trouble because I really needed those , but after reading your post, i got it working again! my phone is synching "as we speak" and i'm very happy!
don't know how it worked before, don't know why it stopped working, all I know is, it's working now!
you made my day
Good to know!
Cheers!
I've since stopped using this method as we got around to publishing our Exchange server with an SSL certificate so I'm actually using SSL enabled ActiveSync push on my phone now.
Excuse me but perhaps you can help me too.
My problem is that I can get/sync my mails using WIFI.
If I connect thru GPRS, y go to send/receive and I get all the mails. If I'm on my office and connect thru WIFI to the work net I also get all the mails from the exchange server.
The problem is when I'm outside my office and connect to other wifi net and try to sync my mails. I have an HTC TOUCH CRUISE with WM 6.1 original from HTC without any flash.
Thanks in advance.
VPN connection doesn't always connect for ActiveSync synchronization?
I have had ActiveSync working with an Exchange server over a PPTP VPN connection for years now, but there has been one nagging issue I can't figure out. For the most part it works, but sometimes when ActiveSync tries to sync it will not make the VPN connection. There is only one connection listed when I tap on the icon on the notification bar - the phone's data connection. So in activesync, the icon with the arrows spins for a while but nothing synchronizes. I think it ends up saying "waiting for network" or something like that. It seems to always work when I manually hit "sync", but sometimes it fails on scheduled synchronizations.
Any idea why this happens sometimes?
oh...cheers...got my brain back...
The exceptions rule has almost fixed mine now. I'm getting mail but not through Activesync (just sits waiting for network).
At work we have a WPA network, And ever time i try to connect to it with my x1 it asks me for my username and password a few times then shows a error message saying i don't have a personal cert. Are network does not require a personal cert. We do have a signed cert from thawte. Are ssid is hidden and the network settings are "WPA, TKIP, PEAP"
same problem here too.
WPA (not WPA2), TKIP with PEAP. I do have the university certificate, but no personal one.
It just keeps asking the password and username, but never connects.
Pretty damn frustrating, as the network works perfectly on Mac, Windows, Linux and even iPhone. But not on Windows Mobile...??
.............................bump.............................
My company apparently had some odd version of WPA enterprise, so I had to use the following hack on my X1 (as well as any other WinMo phone) to get it to work:
1. Get PHMRegEdit: http://www.phm.lu/Products/PocketPC/RegEdit/
2. Add a key to the registry: \HKLM\Comm\EAP\Extension\25\ValidateServerCert= dword:00000000
3. Connect to your network. For mine, I used the settings: WPA, TKIP, hidden network checked, PEAP.
4. After connecting, enter user/pass. I left domain blank on mine.
After following these steps, it seems to work just fine for me, but YMMV.
Type PEAP into the search engine at the top of the forum and try one of the many answers.
The top one gives you an option to connect without checking for any certificates..
does that sound like the solution you need?
I keep repeating this, as do the moderators and the other more experienced members but the search is an incredibly useful feature on this site !
PLEASE SEARCH BEFORE POSTING
blackax in the 24hours since you first posted you could have tried millions of different searches, PEAP was the first one I tried.
EDIT : bah you gave them the answer from the first post!
@brikis98
Thank you for the post. But i have already tryed that with not it working :-(
@fards
I posted because i couldnt find the answer that worked for me. I should of made that more clear in my first post.
It seems that im not even getting to the Radius server. There is no error in the Log around the time i tryed to access WPA. grrrrr This is driveing me nuts
First, you got to figure out what kind of authentication method yr company used.
For me, my company use Cisco EAP-Fast and my only option is install Juniper's Odyssey Client for WM. It's not free but you can try it for 30 days and it works for me.
download "securew2" and follow the directions here: http://askageek.blogspot.com/2008/09/concordia-wireless-using-windows-mobile.html and you should be able to get WPA enterprise to work. I'm a med school student so we have a pretty encrypted system and the tech there didnt' know if anything would work, but I got this to work. Did a bunch of searches before I found something that worked. I've had no problem connecting since this. Hope this helps!

Well, it's really depends as I said before. This one only support the following:
EAP-TTLS
EAP-GTC
EAP-PEAP
EAP-SIM
My company only support EAP-FAST and only Odyssey can handle so many different protocols (all of the above and a lot more).
Hi, I am from Sweden and this is my first post here at XDA.
I got a HTC p3600, it´s upgraded to WM 6.5 and it works awesome.
Now the problem. The WLAN works great at home and other open networks/ if i got the key.
In my school we got WLAN but i can´t connect to it. I find it in the WLAN-list but there it ends. My friend with an Iphone just select the network and then he can insert his username and password, and woila! He´s in.
When i try to connect the server wants a "Certifikat" in swedish. I have tried to do a "Domain enroll" to get it But it always fail.
I think they use Windows Server 2003.
Does anybody understand my bad language? If you wanna know any more, just tell me.
Same problem here, trying for some weeks to find a solution and so far all attempts with different clients failed. I`m sure it`s not a windows server but a cisco concentrator that let`s You access wlan and it seems there is no free client that can communicate correctly with cisco hardware for winmobile. Iphones have a vpn client directly from cisco integrated and can pass without problems. Try to ask Your computer center what concentrator they use and if they know of a client that supports winmobile.
Some forums mention a registry hack that deactivates certificate authentication but just setting it didn`t help. We`re still trying if this might work in conjunction with a locally installed certificate. Try to get the root certificate of Your CA and import it to Your device. Might help. Somehow they screwed up PEAP on mobile clients cause it`s supposed to work without local certificates but alas...

Same problem here, trying for some weeks to find a solution and so far all attempts with different clients failed. I`m sure it`s not a windows server but a cisco concentrator that let`s You access wlan and it seems there is no free client that can communicate correctly with cisco hardware for winmobile.

Thanks for the answer!
Would it be possible to to install some kind of program from cisco to make it work?
Unfortunately Cisco doesn`t do any winmo clients, they licensed it to other companies. Tried with Root CA yesterday but that didn`t work, maybe we need a valid client cert too. Have to get a personal one from our uni CA the days.
Try installing secureW2
http://www.securew2.com/node/3
This is a program specifically designed to work with wpa2 networks offered through a radius server. Most schools and universities use a radius server. You will need a local login and password though.
When installed, you can select securew2 in the certificate window of wifi settings, when you try to connect to the wireless network.
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried with various clients, none of them worked, securew2 was among them. But maybe it works with fiddyboy.
A page mentioned some older hardware may not cope with mixed wpa modes, maybe P3600 is among them but I really don`t think so...

I am downloading now, will test it tomorrow. Thanks!
Edit: I am not getting it to work. Can someone help me with the settings?
I am sorry, but I don't know what settings to use in your specific case... These settings should be made available by your school or company, most of the time the settings for laptops will give enough information too
which rom do you use to upgrade to windows mobile 6.5
Finally got it to work. We have different WLANs here at our university. I had no luck connecting to our VPN-network so I tried our eduroam WLAN. Eduroam is a roaming network for educational purposes. If You have a login from Your uni/school/whatever You should be able to access the internet from any eduroam network worldwide.
As You said You were asked for a certificate I think Your network relies on the same technologies as ours because I had the same error before. Following explanation:
Our eduroam RADIUS server is certified.
This means our uni gave it a certificate. Our uni was certified by and got a certificate from the DFN (german research net). The DFN was certified by and got a certificate from the german Telekom.
This is called a certificate chain with the DFN as intermediary and Telekom as root certificate authority.
What I had to do is import just the root certificate (from Telekom) to my mobile device by downloading it from our unis webpage, transferring it to the Trinity and just click on it. It confirmed installation and the root ca is listed under the Settings>System>Certificates>Root.
Edit : Normal certs are with *.crt ending. MinMo wants *.cer-files. If You only can get Your hands on *.crt import them into Your PC browser, export from there with DER-encoding and rename *.der to *.cer. That`s it.
Our eduroam RADIUS server authentication is via PEAP.
So I configured the network connection like this:
connects to : internet
authentication : wpa2
data encryption : aes
eap type : PEAP
Connect. When prompted put in Your uni account credentials.
This worked on WinMo 6.1 and 6.5 Without the ValidateServerCert reghack or any other other special program.
WinMo5 failed! Also tried the ValidateServerCert reghack but it`s of no use. Think it`s because WM5 has no wpa2-aes support. If Your RADIUS allows wpa and tkip it may work.
Maybe if this doesn`t work Your server it uses something other than wpa2 or aes. Try different options. Maybe it`s not using PEAP. Ask Your admin but try with a certificate first.
The strange thing is that PEAP was used to avoid handling of certificates; it`s especially there to NOT have to fiddle with them. Anyway, this works here, hope this is the solution for Your location...
you should just buy a protable harddrive or a flash drive and transfer your files onto that and then onto your computer.
Hi, I have same problem, trying to use eduroam on CTU, my Notebook/Laptop WiFi work ok, but I can't connect with TD2 Topaz. I have instaled required certificate, but in options I have no way to set concrete RADIUS server to connect (which is required to be specified in settings on Notebook). Any ideas please? I Also installed securew2, but I can't add Cesnet CA in securew2 options, even it is installed in system (I is present in setings-certificates in WM).
When You have WinMo 6.1 You shouldn`t need securew2 and there is no need to explicitly set RADIUS IP. Have You tried eap-type : PEAP ? What`s the error message if any ?
