[Q] VPN help needed

First, the background. I have a new Verizon Galaxy Tab, very impressive and I have searched extensively about this problem. I need to establish a VPN tunnel with a couple of client sites. I have Server 2008 and Sonicwall endpoints available with PPTP (Server 2008) and L2TP (both endpoints) available. I have spent the better part of a day trying every option I can to establish a VPN connection with no success.
Has anyone successfully used the built-in VPN capabilities? I have read that PPTP is broken in Froyo but that possibly L2TP may work. Please do not suggest alternate services as a solution as I am aware already of that route, although I am open to purchasing any app that would make this work. My device is not rooted and I am not interested at this time of flashing any custom ROM. I am interested in determining what works and how you made it work. Thanks in advance.

SonicWALL have VPN clients for their NetExtender and Aventail products on the Market. I've used Aventail and it works great.

Thanks. I will give it a try. I found a client in the market from Sonicwall.

Update
I tried the SSL VPN client (NetExtender) for SonicWall and it works very well. If anyone needs a VPN solution and their SonicWall supports SSL VPN then go for it.

do you need to have SonicWall VPN? Is it possible to use pptp to connect to a vpn?

I tried the PPTP and L2TP built-in clients with no success. I bought my Tab to be able to fix a problem on a server when I am mobile and I was disappointed that I was not able to get either working. Searching didn't yield much except that PPTP is apparently broken and L2TP is somewhat non-standard. It may also be that it has been fixed on models from other carriers (I have a Verizon unit). So I say try it, but don't be surprised if it doesn't work. I am hoping that the supposed Gingerbread release may offer some fixes in this area. In the meantime, the SonicWall is a solution for me, but won't be for most people.

I have the Verizon Tab also. I am wondering how I can connect to my VPN. Can Android use any of these: OpenVPN (SSL), PPTP, and Cisco IPsec.

I have the built-in VPN working via L2TP to my home network, running xl2tpd. I never got IPSec working, though (trying to provide with StrongSwan PSK).

Are you using the Verizon Tab? I have no problem connecting to the same vpn with my Evo.

I'm using a T-Mobile tab. That shouldn't make any difference, however.

I've never seen L2TP working on Android, and so far (1.6; 2.1; 2.2) Froyo has the best PPTP support with a whole minute before whatever app you are using starts to time out.

Android Cannot Connect to Proxy enabled Wifi

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....

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.

[Q] Update 2.3.6 not working on wireless router.

Hello, I have updated my u8800 too 2.3.5 from 2.2.2(138sp4) and now my wireless does not work om my netgear wndr3800 router. Before it worked but now it connects but when I try to do something that requires network it "crashes the router".
I wrote wron in the header. it should say 2.3.5

Does your phone see your router? You have to reconnect to the router including entering any protection keys after the upgrade...

My phone sees it, connects but does not send/recieve information. It says network connection not found.

Is it a new profile for your wifi or is it synced from google. I have problems with my phone every time i get a new rom and sync with google. But then i just have to delete it and it wrks

Areedw Make sure it's not an IP address conflict with anything else connected wirelesly to the router.

Can you check your mac address?

[Q] wifi-in wifi-out (sharing wifi on wifi)

Hi all,
I know the thread's title may sound ridiculous, but it's really not.
I'm looking for a way to share my mobile wifi connection (I'm currently using the latest HTC one device) via wifi.
Meaning, I'm connected to a wifi network from my Android device, and I want to share this connection with other laptop/pad/mobile devices via wifi.
So my device acts both as wifi client to a hot-spot infra, and also like a hotspot infra for other devices.
In the past, I did it successfully using my iphone and MyWi app.
I've spent quite some time goggling for a solution, but non of the threads/articles I've read really address this problem, as most of them refer to sharing the mobile data connection rather than the wifi connection.
this is the closest thread I've found (from 2010) and it refers to wifi sharing via USB and not wifi.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1276723
the reason I'm looking for such a way is that I have a iPass certificate on my mobile, which enables me to connect freely to iPass wifi hotspots around the world (popular at airports for example) and I want to use this connection with my laptop or my friends mobile devices.
can anyone shed some light on this subject?

Provided that your phone and your laptop are connected to the same WiFi network, ( no internet access to laptop due to VPN or other reasons) you can use a proxy server (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.proxyserver&hl=en) on android to use Internet on your laptop.

Hi, indeed it is usefull if you are sharing LAN and a lo you need is HTTP access. But if this is not the case.. then you are back to square one..

Some third party tethering app may be able to do it, but the native one will turn off WiFi before it enables WiFi Hotspot. I think it's a hardware limitation. You can use USB tethering and Bluetooth tethering with a WiFi connection.
