Hi there
I want to connect to my universities wireless network.
The requirements the want are;
Root Certificate installed (I've already installed)
a client device that supports the wireless authentication mechanism, 802.1x/PEAP. (This bit is which I am not sure that the Exec has)
----------------------------------------------------------
Part of the configuation instructions provided by the university
Network name (SSID) = ****-student
Network Authentication = WPA
Data encryption = TKIP
If you do not see an option for WPA then the
software for your network card might need
updating. Please consult the manufacturers
documentation on how to do this.
---------------------------------------------
Is there a way that I can get a patch or something or is it still possible to access my universities wireless network?
I've got a o2 XDA Exec
Many thanks for your help guys
In my previous university, the MAC of the WiFi network needs to be registered before you can use it, even you have all the username or password. First I didn't notice this because other friends got their notebook connected without registering their WiFi cards. And only later, I notice that since they bought their notebook via the university, the MAC is already registered. Double check with your uni IT guys.
Also, check if they have WiFi B support. You may need to check if your phone is capable of using G. There are solution for *some phone to enable G, search.
OK it seems to connect but I need to install my university root certificate on my universal.
How do I do that?
Thanks
Hello,
Well I hope I'm putting this post in the right place, if not please move it. I have a 8525 with cingular. I need vpn access for my office connection from my laptop. We use a Fortiwifi 60 with the Forticlient software for VPN access. I used it with the old wireless modem settings on my 8525 and it worked with both wap. and isp. I recently upgraded to the new offical rom and used it fine (without trying the VPN access) for a few weeks. I went on my first trip last week and could not connect to the vpn. It would verify PSK and X-AUTH but fails to pull an ip address. I tried it with a static ip and it failed as well. When I check my connection monitor it shows no data coming back from my vpn gateway. I tried it on the hotel's internet and it works fine. I also tried another wifi signal and it worked as well. I changed the media net settings to go through isp instead of wap but that didn't help. Does anyone else have this problem with there VPN settings? I wonder if it is the new type of connection sharing or a change to the Cingualr network? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I had the same problem with another IPsec client with this ROM. For some reason I could not get Internet Connection sharing to work when connected via USB. Bluetooth pan worked. The VPN client was not binding to the ICS/usb adapter. I have since upgraded to WM6...Sleuths ROM...and USB/ICS now works.
Well I tried the phone on another computer and the vpn works just fine. I guess it's something on that computer. Anyone have any ideas? I'm going to try reinstalling the virtual adapter in hopes that it is a binding issue (thanks to tco for that). I'll let you know if I figure it out.
Good day everyone,
I have a vodafone magic which I am trying to get connected to my college wpa enterprise connection. My university provides a configuration file found at http://helpline.concordia.ca/network/wireless/ipod-iphone.shtml which installs on iphones allowing connection to the schools wifi. I wanted to know if the file could be modified to work on android so that I would be able to access the wifi, or maybe there is a app that allows connection to wpa enterprise?
any input would be greatly appreciated.

You need to install wifi helper from android market and your magic needs to be rooted.
With that it's fairly easy to set up WPA enterprise by entering all the settings then disabling/reenabling wifi.
Stoo
thanks for the quick response, my magic is rooted and running the ion rom, this is great i will get the app and try this soon.
did this method work for you on the concordia wifi network? I am having trouble connecting!
Hello,
In the General Section of xda-dev i never got answers about pptp vpn.
Perhaps i´ll get here some help ^^
Is there a way to get a working pptp client for my x10i.
My Phone is rooted and i can replace files if needed.
The buildin pptp client is useless and doesn´t connet to my bintec r1200 router.
My Windows PC and my Ipod are connecting without any problems.
Why google added a pptp client which doesn´t work ?
Some Users wrote they can connect with some comercial vpn providers. But i need to connect to my own Network. I don´t want to pay for something which my Router can give me 4 free ^^
My Phone does never connect to my Network. I does not matter if encryption is turned on or off.
I tryed the tip to replace some file from this thread, too.With no luck
code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4706
Has anyone get a succesful PPTP connection to a NON COMMERCIAL Vpn ?
Openvpn is useless for me, too. My Router supports als standard VPN, so i don´t want to run an additional PC to get that Phone connected to my Network.
Please Help me
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.
