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.

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 have a stock Samsung Vibrant. It connects to my home wifi network just fine and is very fast.
At my school we have to register the mac address' of devices we have on their Clean Access servers. I have registered many devices that work fine.
I registered the mac address of my Vibrant, and it can connect to the wifi, but it will not load a web page. Does anyone have any idea of what is wrong.
I also registered my roommates Vibrant. His does not work either.
I work at the Schools Tech Support so I have access to register and edit my phone on their Clean Access servers.
Does anyone have any solutions?
are you using WPA/WPAv2 or WEP + RADIUS authentication? Does your vibrant obtain an IP address successfully? Can you ping the default router?
The wifi that works at my apartment is WPA2.
The wifi at school is an open network. I can fully connect to their wifi.

Im going out on a limb here. I am going to say its the Clean access and your "open network". I assume on your schools computer you use your student ID and some password. Your phone would need the same thing if that is the case. I know at my school, iphones are the only phones that can access our clean access. If its not the case then i am sorry.
my school runs clean access and it works fine. but they have two networks a guest and a login. i use the guest cause i don't want to waste the time to login. but i can try it on monday. typically with linux (i.e. android) you have a web portal and have to agree to some antivirus bs by clicking a button and that's it (and login for the non guest network). one thing i have noticed, though, is that typically i have to turn wifi on, connect to the network, try to load a page, it doesn't work, then i turn wifi off then immediately back on and try to load a page and it takes me to the login/terms portal page.

You should remove the IP from post. Anyways, it seems like the handshake is good. Note down the address of redirected terms and conditions page you get when trying to go online from a laptop. Then enter the same address in vibrant's browser once you are connected through Wifi ( or set it as homepage) and see if that lets it through.
Probably an issue with Android's lack of native NTLM support. AFAIK this is still unresolved. Have you tried using Fennec rather than the stock browser? I've heard you can authenticate properly using it.

interesting. i use dolphin hd and it works for the clean access web authentication page.
Could be, if your school does not have a guest account login for devices, that you are getting on the segregated network because CA cannot verify the "cleanliness" of your device. When I setup CA it verified patch levels and such on the non-guest network, so unless CA comes out with a Android client/access list, it may not work.

except then it wouldn't allow osx or linux. clean access requires an app for windows to verify service pack and av and whatever, but for linux and osx it doesn't. it wouldn't be able to (at least for linux).

That is correct but it can ID the operating system and has exceptions for those flavors ...
Hey it's me again.
I don't think it's an android thing because I had my G1 on the servers.
Normally what happens if you aren't registered on Clean Access is, if you open a web browser, you will be automatically redirected to an authentication page where you put in your school ID and password. This would work fine and allow me to get on the wifi, but it never came up on the web browser, it just tries to load the page for awhile and goes to a 'Page cannot be displayed' page.
Also I have tried using different browsers, including Dolphin HD.
If I can just get to the authentication page even it will be fine, I could work with that.
Also the school does have a guest login, but you have to get to the authentication page, and I wouldnt want guest access since it limits time, bandwidth, and features.
That is exactly what I said my last reply...Try putting https infront of your authentication URL, and make sure the java-script etc. is on in your browser...Try clearing cache and hit refresh as well. Also, see what happens if you set that URL as homepage...

did you try turning on wifi, wait for it to connect, try to load a page (any page because it will redirect you), wait for it to time out, pull down the notification bar, turn wifi off, turn it back on and then reload the page? i know it sounds dumb, but this is the only way i've got it to work at my school and it works every time...

to what flavors? i'm guessing android will show as linux since it's based off a linux kernel. more than likely it checks for windows, and if false goes to the default linux/osx page because to clean access those aren't threat os's.

they don't have the authentication URL on their homepage so I don't know what it is, it should automatically redirect me to it.
Also when I connect to wifi, try to load a page, let it time out, turn off wifi, turn it back on and connect again, and then refresh the page.. nothing happens it times out again.
Ok so I did find out the authentication page URL. Typed it into my phone. I had high hopes when a page saying "You are being redirected to the network authentication page. If you are not redirected automatically, then please click HERE".
Anyway it did redirect me, to a "Web page not available"... etc.
In the default browser it gave me the error... "Data connectivity problem. A secure connection could not be established". umm wtf?
Can you communicate with other protocols/ports? I used to be able to exploit a bug with our school's CCA servers where I could just connect unauthenticated and use SSH. (Maybe it was a feature?)
I can't use any other web protocols.
Bump. Okay. I've figured out how to do this . '
it's a t mobile vibrant either kernel or rom problem. My phone connected the very first time I tried to use it at an argosy site, then never ever ever again.
so. I used wifi manager to find out what the ip, gateway, subnet mask, and dns 1 and 2 were. I went to settings, wifi, options key to go to advanced options, from there selected static ip and entered all the info I gathered
bam! ! Connected every time.
Oh and btw, the reason I say its a tmobile vibrant rom or kernel problem is that on fusion, Eugene's and bionix final, I was able to connect right away, every time . And on my f friends att fascinate and verizon captivate, they never had to enter the static ip like I did. They connected right away every time . Yet everyone I know that had s vibrant kept having the same proble. m i did .
Tmobile. What a piece of ****. Anyway I figured nobody had this figured out so I'd jump in.
Hope this helps out some people. GL
The wifi at my university either prompts devices for a log in or redirects the browser to a log in page to fully access the wifi. I cannot for the life of me, get my nexus 7 to fully connect. No prompts and chrome will not redirect. Any help would be appreciated!!
Typically on my laptop or other tablets in my University, whenever I connect to the Wi-Fi either a pop-up prompt appears where I can enter my log in info or I go on to my browser (also chrome) and enter a website liek facebook or yahoo and it will redirect to the University's Wifi page and I can log in from there.
My Nexus 7 doesn't have a pop-up prompt when I connect to the wifi nor does the Chrome redirect. Any tips?
That's weird. I connected to the harvard medical school network at where I work and when I tried going to a web page (espn), the redirect occurred and I could sign in. Don't know why it isn't working for you

I have no idea why, I'm connected to Cornell Medical School wifi as well, and typically i'd have to type in my log in and my password when Chrome redirects me but it's not redirecting. It keeps saying This Webpage is Not Available because the DNS Look up failed."
I get an error on the bottom of Chrome stating: "Error 105 (net::ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED): Unable to resole the server's DNS address."
Trying using Firefox to authenticate instead. Once you do Chrome will work fine (just not for the authentication part).
Quick idea:
At Eastern Washington University there's an open access AP and a secure AP. When you use open, you are redirected to a student sign on page.
When you use secure, there is no page redirect, as you login using some fancy WiFi security protocol with the same user/pass combo from open. (Tablet remembers network auth and auto-reconnects when in range with no redirects) Maybe just check to see if you have that available?
Also, try forgetting/disconnecting from your network so it doesn't reconnect; then manually reconnect to it. This would hopefully flush any DNS configuration your tablet may have erroneously stored.

Thanks everyone, for suggesting the use of other browsers such as Opera to help me redirect. However, I downloaded Opera and Dolphin browser (couldn't find Firefox for some reason) and both of them will not redirect me to the log in page. But my iPhone is able to connect. Any tips? Any help would be appreciated!! (Sorry this is my first Android device)
Can someone please solve this issue? Or at least give an explanation why the nexus 7 has issues with certain open networks?
If you're going to an encrypted (https) page, you won't redirect. Try going to www.google.com instead of your homepage (gmail can be set to https).
Its not encrypted. Just a standard login. I really have no clue what is going on. I tried setting a static IP and using google's DNS as well as open DNS which helped a bit (I occasionally get th elogin screen now, but it doesn't do anything for me).
Has anyone ever solved this issue?
Mine redirects just fine. I have to select the network in the WiFi settings, and then open the browser, though.

Not sure from your answer if you understood me. If the page you're trying to get redirected FROM is HTTPS, it won't redirect. Navigate to google.com and see if you redirect (since that's never https).
That page is not https. It is standard HTTP.
Before I wouldn't even get that page. Now I reliably get that page (the authentication/acceptance of policy page) since I changed the DNS settings for open DNS (another site recommended using google's DNS or using open DNS). However after I hit accept, it doesn't do anything and just times out after 5 mins or so.
This should work
idk if I'm late in answering this but next time you log in from any device look for the router number and type that in the web browser on the device it isn't connecting on and that should redirect you
Is there any hope? Android is just impossible when it comes to wifi. Sometimes it brings up the login page. But if it doesn't bring up the login page, you will never get connected.
Here's a sample experience.
I'm at a coffee shop trying to connect my oneplus one, which has cyanogen12.0-yng1tas17l
Some things I tried: I opened wpa_supplicant.conf with a text editor and deleted this coffee shop's network. I tried to connect using the app "wifi browser login." I went to settings--modify network--advanced options--ip settings to find the gateway, ip address and dns of the coffee shop, and tried typing them into the browser. Nothing works.
This failure to load the login page is a problem that affects android in general, not just the oneplus one or cyanogen. I have problems with the nexus 7 sometimes too. I've been searching for a solution for years. The silence is deafening.
Sorry but I don't have another resource to ask and I am always on XDA...
I am trying to connect from a home Windows 8 via RDC to a VPN at a Dr's office. I have all the info I need to connect but am not able to. The remote computer is requesting my login verification but none of my known logins are working.
I am probably incorrectly using the RDC client for the VPN purpose. I am using it with the outside IP and not using any VPN tunnel prior. Is this incorrect?
I have the IPSEC Grup Name and Password as well as VPN Shared Key and even an instruction that says: VPN CONNECTION FROM REMOTE, but no matter what I try I don't get connected.
I tried from my WP8 phone and was able to literally see the Windows Server 2008 logon screen but then was unable to login. Perhaps the username syntax is incorrect and I need to use a domain?
So can anyone offer me a bit of advice?
Do I need to use some sort of cisco software to connect to the cisco vpn before logging on with the RDC?
Remote Desktop is not a VPN protocol. If you want to connect to a server that is only visible on a VPN (i.e. not available to the Internet at large, which is quite common), you'll need to first connect to the VPN (which is basically an encrypted "LAN" connection that goes over the Internet) and then you'll be able to use RDP to that server.
Depending on the type of VPN, you may need to download and install the VPN software on your PC first, or you may be able to use Windows' built-in VPN client. To do the latter, these are the steps on Win8:
1. Open the "Network and Sharing Center" (can be done from Start search or by right-clicking the network icon in the system tray on the desktop).
2. Click "Set up a Connection or Network".
3. Select "Connect to a workplace" and hit Next.
4. Click "Use my Internet connection (VPN)".
5. Enter the name of the VPN server where it says "Internet address" (there are some examples), and give it a name (like "Doctor's office VPN").
6. If you have a Smart Card (unlikely but possible) then select the checkbox for that. If you're on a shared computer, you might want to uncheck "Remember my credentials".
7. Once the options you want are selected, hit Create.
8. The connection will appear in the Networks list (click the Network icon on the desktop, or use Settings charm -> network button).
9. Click it and choose Connect.
10. Type in your user name for the VPN (you may need to specify a domain, such as DRDOMAIN\username).
11. Type in your password for the VPN, and hit OK.
12. Once it says you're connected, you should be able to access resources on the VPN (such as the Remote Desktop server).
EDIT: I just saw that you mention it's a Cisco VPN. Yes, you'll need Cisco's VPN software (the above steps will probably not work). You should ask the office how to get a copy of it and how to use it.
My android phone (galaxy s5) and Windows 7 computer are both connected on the same network wirelessly via a router.
I would like to send a text message to the phone and the user would just click 'OK' or similar and the message would go away until the next one is sent from the software application I'm writing in visual basic .net.
Thing is, I can't use SMS or something similar because there will be no internet/cellular connections. Only the two devices connected on the same local network.
I have tried to use msg(net send) shell command to send a message to my phone's ip address but I returned "Error 1722 getting session names", net view also doesn't show the device so it seems it not picking it up on the network. In the DHCP list of the router I can see the device listed though.
Not sure if i need to enable/open something on the device or maybe install an app to intercept the messages?
Anyone have any ideas?
Thank you
EDIT: arp -a command does list the ip phone's IP address
Maybe not 100% what you are looking for ...but give it a try ?
