Hy!
My problem is that I can't connect to my office router which has a HiddenSSID. I know it's a known defect of the Android 1.x OS. I1ve found this program on androlib: HiddenSSID Enabler as a solution for this problem but this program can't be installed on Tattoo I thnik bevause of the resolution.
So any help or suggestion that can help me?
Thank You!
WeFi should works fine..
Wifi is working fine if the router's ssid is not hidden but if it's then I should add a new network which has the name of the router with the hiddenSSID. I've made it and the new network of course appears on the list but the Tattoo doesn't connect to automatically and there is no option to connect to that network because in the popup menu there is onlí one option and that's the "forget network".
So wifi works fine but not with hiddenSSID networks.
WeFi is a free software.. try with it
Ohh I see i don't know wefi is the name of the software I'll try it thank you.

Hi I recently signed up for a StrongVPN 3 Country deal to give me a stable VPN connection in China. I have set up all ok om my home PC and it works fine allowing access to sites otherwise blocked here.
Then i set up a VPN connection on my HTC Touch Diamond2 I can get the VPN to connect using either IPSec/L2TP or PPTP methods, however neither Tunnel seems to allow Internet access to either MS Explorer or Opera Mobile 10 or any other internet program.
In fact when i have established the VPN connection and then start my internet explorer or any other program which needs to access the internet then the VPN connection is dropped.
If I connect the VPN tunnel on the TD2 i can site there watching it for ages so it does not seem to be dropped after any specific time frame, only when I start an internet access program. for instance if i open my Hotmail account then the VPN connection stays until the point when i tap send and receive then it drops immediately and the hotmail account then synchronise mail via the standard wifi connection.
I also set-up my home PC to allow incoming connection and then set up another VPN connection on my TD2 to allow it to connect to my home PC. but whilst i can connect to my home PC i can not surf the internet using the VPN tunnel......I had thought that i might be able to start the StrongVPN connection on my homePC and then access it via the VPN connection from my TD2 to my HomePC but it does not seem to work that way.
My objective is to use my mobile phone to be able to surf social networking sites that are otherwise blocked by censorship.
Sorry for the long post but please could anyone with advise or experience at setting these two functions up on WM 6.5.3 please advise.
Well I think I may have found out the reason for the VPN connection to drop out....I needed to change my setting in CONNECTIONS and where before i selected my GPRS or EDGE service provider i now need to change that to "My Work Network" as this is where i set up the StrongVPN connection. now i have done this change to the settings the VPN connection does not drop out when any Internet program is started.
But I still can not access the blocked websites using StrongVPN on my WM device so I do not really know if it is using the VPN connection or not.....
im also in china and got one vpn for the same reasons as u and having exactly the same problem as u..
plz tell me if u found any solution...

StrongVPN Help desk advised me to input their DNS server settings in to the VPN account settings. I will try this when i get back to China in September. the DNS settings are found by edit the VPN account then next, next and select "Advanced" then scroll to "Servers" there you can select manaual server address and use the one that you VPN service provider recommend.
Let me know how you get on.
I have a similar problem here. I have setup the VPN in network connections but am still unable to surf blocked sites. The VPN worked fine on my PC. I have also changed the DNS setting for the VPN but no luck. But since there was no popup windows telling me whether it is connected or disconnected, how do I know the status of the VPN connection? Thanks!
to see if you are connected just tap on the top info bar then u should see your wifi connect and also your VPN connection. if you enable sound notification for connections in sounds then you will also get an audible connect and dissconnect to let u know. remember to set all your connection settings to "work connections" as i fount if not then when u open opera or other program that needs internet connection it will disconnect the VPN connection.
Thanks. I have tried that and the VPN was online. But opera was just couldn't open any page. Eighter the factbook tab in TouchFlo3D couldn't login. Any idea?
Have the same problem connecting to my home network - Remote Desktop works fine, until I open a browser on my HD2 - changing settings mentioned above didn't help...
Ok - it seems like I've managed to discontinue the connection drops to VPN.
Added wildcards to exceptions http://*.* and https://*.*
This way everything that tries to connect to internet connects via VPN. To stop that - in Work network setting select the same connection you use to connect to internet (Connections > Advanced > Select network)

I'm not sure what you mean by "added wild cards to exceptions"....what exceptions and where on your PDA did you add them?
As far as I was aware you are only able to set up a VPN connection in the "My Work Network" connections area. then to stop your VPN connection from being dropped by any application that access the Internet, you simply change your options to BOTH use "My Work Network" then the VPN connection is used for all applications.
However that said, I still cant access blocked sites using my VPN connection with StrongVPN in China. even after setting my Server DNS to that of StrongVPN it still does not work.
Anyone got any ideas why or how to access blocked content in China on their PDA??????

Hey guys I was just searching in the market place and i found this wifi editing app. After playing around with it I was able to connect to my campus's wifi, which is an enterprise connection.
Its called-Wifi Advanced Config Editor by Marcus905
Check it out here for more info.
http://myxperiax10.blogspot.com/2010/09/wifi-enterprise-connection.html
LOL for me it has a free open wifi but it has a proxy on it which i cannot input into my xperia
thank you for the link!
i was finally able to connect eduroam!!!
my uni has two options to connect..
-connect to eduroam using password, and once connected you are free to use the internet
-connect to open uni network, then input ur uni id and p/w to connect... which is FRUSTRATING if you lose a signal or something and need to reconnect...
thanks a bunch!!
thanks for that, will have to try it out when I go uni.
It seems to work on and off for me with my uni wifi. I found it a couple of weeks ago.

Me too. We can't use transproxy also. It needs iptables. I installed it but iptables is not waorking without enabling netfilter in the kernal. So we have to recompile the kernal with netfilter enabled. But it is useless because the bootloader is not hacked yet.
I recently bought this device, but I am disappointed since there are no wifi proxy settings.
I rooted it and installed trans proxy, proxymator etc,
but i cant use the web through wifi proxy,
any solution ?

Wifi proxy? That does not even exist !!!
Just go and get yourself a wired phone.
Check it properly
I mean using google services and browsing by through a proxy on wifi

You can do PPTP vpn if u need to, web proxy is so last century..
There's no wifi proxy baked into android. This makes it useless for most enterprise networks, I.e. you can't use an android with a radius server for enterprise WPA authentication and proxy. Apparently we might be getting it in gingerbread.
If you look in the general android discussion there's a kludge that kinda works.
Your other option is to get an iPhone, ios has had support for wifi proxy/ enterprise wpa from the get go.
I know, it's ridiculous, blame Google...

Is it possible to do on X8 ?
It won't work if you are connecting via ad-hoc. You may install connectify to your laptop and use that internet connection for your x8/whatever phone/device.

Isn't any app that can help up with the proxy settings?
I am beginning to get sick of this phone and this OS, no wifi proxy, no way to install to SD card except of hundreds of steps, google navi doesn't work, get's stucked at the beginning, exagerated price for unlocking...
Try custom Rom.. floyo has proxy in settings

As I see you posted in this thread Racht, I ask you how to configure an OpenVPN in Floyo.
Do I have to install something ?
I tried with a .conf file but I don't know where to put the .ca certificate.
I also tried to install OpenVPN config.
Have you got a link to a good tutorial ?
Thanks.
hi, please u check for ASProxy from market, it works for me.. but it is paid version.. and required rooted device only..
I thought about a custom rom, but it seems I couldn't find a stable one here, all have bugs with either bluetooth, camera or gps, and maybe I am too blind to find an xrecovery link to download it.Do you have a link with a good rom? Thanks in advance

ASProxy requires your phone to be rooted and iptables are required.

Where? - I have been try your great Floyo 1.0b and CM7-138 but I cannot find it.
The problem is:
I can't coonect to my corporate LAN. LAN settings: WPA, EAP, PEAP/MSCHAPV2.
I have my account in domain with login and pass, but device can't connect yo LAN.
Could anybady halp?
(sorry for my english... :-( )
Not sure if it's completely related to this
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1386
but it seems like Android cannot connect to EAP extension officially without actual hacking. Unfortunately I don't have a Tab yet, and it's going to be my first Android device, so not much I can help you with. Hopefully someone can help u here from the board! Maybe asking in the Android section of XDA too. Good luck!
I regularly use EAP-TTLS/PAP on my Nexus One, so its not a general Android issue. I never came across PEAP, so there could be bugs... You need to talk to your network administrator to log your login attempts if you want to debug this.

Many thanks to dliao. I think his tip is very usefull for me.
Have u tried using the wifi advance configuration software from marketplace?
My Tab problem is with certain profiles created in the Tab and with some wifi routers, the tab will reboot once i switch on the tab wifi. I think its hardware compatibility issue but so far have not heard anyone having this prob here

Unfortunatly the most popular WiFi Editor Pro is not avalable for my region. But I've find Full WiFi with same functionality. It doesn't work. I catch that Galaxy Tab keep wifi settings not in wpa_supplicant.conf as other devices but in /data/wifi/bcm_supp.conf...
I tried modify it but without success...
Okay sinse i don't have the option to comment on the right page i will put it here.
This is the problem.
I have three Leo's with the Energy sense Rom(one of the bests roms) but when one Leo is online using wifi the other one or two can't go online, because the all use the same mac adres and ip adres 192.168.0.19 .
Is there a way to change the ip or Mac settings...
Static wifi isn't an option because the Mac adres still stays the same and if i use static i cant connect to other routers because not all routers uses the 192.168.0.1 Gateway.
Please reply for this serious question.

Yes there is a way. But I cannot remember how. Are you running the latest version of energy sense? I would recommend reading the forum to see what other people have said about the mac addresses.
I used the Rom 08.02.12 with marc's 0.2.0 because the lastest 15.03.2012 rom has to many bugs.
use a root browser to change wifi mac address.I recommend root browser lite.Go to /system/etc/ folder.Find and open for editing the file "calibration" and in the first line you will see the wifi mac address.Put another one,save the file and you`re ready to go
Thank-you this was the solution to my problem
