Hi all,
I have an HTC Dream branded TIM, which I can use for internet access with the APN settings provided by my operator.
I could also use a different APN which requires username/password authentication but up to know I was not able to use it with my phone.
(Yes, I am already aware of the usage of the "APN type" field in order to instruct the phone which APN profile to use )
I suspect it is an authentication-related issue because in the APN configuration of the DREAM I cannot define any configuration related to the authentication method (PAP, CHAP, etc.).
My phone is rooted (JF1.5): can you hint me to understand:
1) which log I can read in order to check why I cannot get the connection with the APN
2) which shell command I can use to try to verify the networking configuration binded with the APN: IP address, DHCP, DNS, ...
3) how I can set the authentication used when connecting to the APN
Thanks for your help, experts!

Hi barban, I have the same problem as you, and unfortunately don't have any solution yet.
Did you finally solve your problem?
Hello,
I'm trying to set up USAccess on my Nexus Player. As there are no existing guides, I've just been using standard Android guides. So far, I am unable to connect to the internet after changing my DNS settings. I've been searching endlessly and have only found questions regarding this topic before the Nexus Player was released.
I
I tested on my NP both by changing the DNS settings on the device and at the router level and did not have any luck connecting to Netflix on either. With the DNS set on the device, the internet connection wouldn't work on any app but when I changed it on the router, apps worked (Play store for example) but Netflix wouldn't connect.
I wonder if it is similar to the Chromecast where the DNS settings are hardcoded and you need to set up some modifications on your router (or have root access to make the necessary changes).
My suggestion would be to open a ticket with USAccess and they may be able to assist/verify that everything is configured correctly.
Setting DNS on my router works for me for accessing Australian content from the states. So this seems to be a netflix specific thing.
Sent from my Nexus 5
I'm in Canada and Netflix usa works fine for me (go to settings in Netflix and under member if it says US then it should be working) I use unblockus I have my dns settings changed on the router. Now just need a way for the nexus player to load the usa play store, this has always been tricky on Android. Worst case I will sideload Hulu for the time being.
I'm also up in Canada, and I was able to use unotelly's DNS to access Netflix US. I did notice that after changing the DNS settings on the player itself, I couldn't connect to anything until I changed the language setting in the settings app to us English (instead of Canadian), and although everything is connecting now, I've lost the recommendations bar (it just says recommendations are not available right now)
So far USAccess.ca is not working here either. Going to need to do more digging and see what the device is actually trying to do!
I am also up in Canada and I use AdFreeTime DNS service, however I cannot get Netflix to work. When I change the DNS addresses on my router to AdFreeTime, Netflix throws an -100 connection error, but everything else connects fine. I am re-routing google's dns services 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 to AdFreeTime DNS servers through iptables on my Asus router. Maybe that's an issue?
Can someone from Canada who has Netflix US working post exactly how they got Netflix to connect properly? Thank you.
I just got usaccess.ca working... It turns out I think my version of DD-WRT had some dnsmasq issues (even with strict-order enabled). I flashed a newer release of DD-WRT so i could get tcpdump working and when i finally went to capture the traffic, low and behold netflix was working with the US DNS servers set in dnsmasq. I could even watch US content
Now i just need to find that Hulu Plus .apk!!!

As a followup: I got Netflix US content working properly on the NP by setting my router to my US dsn services, but I had to disable routing the google dns servers to my AdFreeTime dns servers (which I was doing through an iptables script on my custom Asus AC68U router.) This kind of blows as routing google dns to US dns services such as AdFreeTime, Unblock US, etc was the only way to make the Chromecast work with US Netflix and other services from Canada.
There has to be a way to keep those pesky google dns services built in to Chromecast and the Nexus Player routed to unblocked US dns services without messing up Netflix on the NP.
Any ideas would be greatly welcomed.
The Nexus Player doesn't have hard coded DNS servers. I was able to change my WIFI connection from DNS to STATIC; enter in static, gateway, and DNS (USAccess) IPs and a day later, the settings took and my Netflix region change to US EN.

+1 for this problem, I get the error -100, using USAccess. Have tried setting a static profile with USAccess DNS and with the IP's on my router. Works fine on my Amazon Fire TV but not the Nexus Player.
I had the same problem with usaccess, so I used the trial of unotelly to compare. unotelly works perfectly including displaying the US play store. Could be worth the extra expense, i have 7 days left to decide .
So following this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-player/general/how-to-change-dns-ip-t2953282
USAccess is still not working for you?
I'm using 107.20.195.51 not their new region switching DNS IP.

Everyone has a different home network setup. So, I'll try to help you out.
Go to:
Settings
Network
Wi-Fi Connected
Pick your current Wi-Fi connection
Status info
Write down the IP address
e.g 192.168.2.23
When you go back to your Advanced settings, use the following:
IP address = IP address you wrote down from above (e.g. 192.168.2.23)
Gateway = You will have to figure out. It is usually the first three sets of numbers from your IP address and .1
So, from my example, Gateway = 192.168.2.1
Network prefix length = 24
DNS 1 = Enter in your DNS IP
DNS 2 = Use your secondary DNS IP
I use USAccess so my numbers are
Primary DNS: 107.20.195.51 Secondary DNS: 107.20.190.171
Hit next and you should see settings saved message.

I have done this, tried three different wifi networks, both with and without USAccess. I'm starting to think there is something with Netflix that it just won't work in Sweden.
Hasn't anyone who previously had the -100 error been able to resolve it?
Does anyone know what the netflix app is trying to do when we get the -100 error? I would like to find this out so I can tell my ISP about it as they offer their own DNS redirection service so we can get access to things like netflix in the USA.
I have 8.8.4.4 and 8.8.8.8 redirected to a fake IP so that those addresses timeout at the router, but netflix will still not load unless I put unotelly's DNS directly on the NP. My roku on the other hand works without putting unotelly's DNS settings.

just add it 1dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com
Two questions about this:
What is Automatic DNS? Does this route DNS lookup requests to a OnePlus-run DNS server?
Why can't I enter 1.1.1.1 as the DNS? (instead of 1dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com which would require a DNS lookup right?)

No, it's a elemental setting provided from android pie itself. The automatic dns is the one provided from your provider, see https://www.dnsleaktest.com/
Why you can't enter ip's? Well, it's by Google design when they want a host name
Thanks.
I still don't fully understand the difference between Off and Automatic. dnsleaktest shows the same results for both settings for me.
EDIT: I see now that Automatic encrypts the DNS look up.

that's DNS over TLS and the automatic setting negotiates if it's available on provider site. If not, it's not encrypted as before.

For anyone curious, why you can't use an IP address in settings and need to use 1dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com. This is because many mobile carrier support IPv4 and IPv6 and this prevents you from entering a potentially obsolete or unreachable IPv4 address.
and also
You need to verify the certificate that the DNS server gives you with the hostname that you put in. Because if that cert is compromised (wrong host name, expired, etc.) then the whole server might as well be compromised. If the cert matches the hostname, then it's good and you are able to secure DNS requests over TLS.

and
https://blog.cloudflare.com/enable-private-dns-with-1-1-1-1-on-android-9-pie/
Thanks!
My last curiosity about this: what DNS does your phone use for resolving 1dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com to it's actual IP address? Or how does it do this lookup?
Sorry for the late input. I noticed something while using "Private DNS" option. When I keep it OFF, my DNS always shows as Jio (that's obvious since I use Jio sim). But when I keep it AUTOMATIC, sometimes my DNS shows Jio, but most of the time it shows that my DNS is Google. I don't know how and why. So, I guess on Automatic mode, the device switches in between ISP provided DNS and Google DNS automatically depending on the ping or something. But, like I said, on automatic, the DNS leak test is not static. The DNS keeps changing time to time.
For anyone somewhat interested in privacy, Cloudflare isn't the best choice.
UncensoredDNS works fine, and you can either use this for Anycast:
Code:
anycast.censurfridns.dk
...or this for a single node:
Code:
unicast.censurfridns.dk
