I tried to search the forums for this answer, but found nothing and started my own thread.
Question: Is it possible to connect to WPA2-E with the tilt? There is no feature on the wireless settings, and I didn't know if it even had the capability or if it was a software issue.
Backstory: I'm trying to connect to my school's wifi and the tech people here said they didn't have the ability to allow smartphones to connect via wifi. I connect fine with a laptop but can't mimic then on the tilt.
If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated.
Have you tried opening up the "WiFi" settings and enrolling? With WPA2-E, you need the certificate first...
There is no WPA Enterprise available within the Microsoft WM6 OS. This is no fault of HTC (for the flamers on this forum) so we will have to wait for an MS update!!

Do you know if it might be included in 6.1?

There are protocol conflicts at the moment because all providers at the conference table have different draft-n situations.
TKIP is totally screwed whereas AES is working reasonably at the moment.
When we get a totally confirmed 'n' format then Encryption will automatically fall into place!
This then needs MS to accept and implement!
Just wait and hope is all I can say!!!

is there some kind of 3rd party software that could hold me over?
It (my school) uses wpa2-enterprise security type and AES encryption type with a PEAP authentication method.

I know I am probably the millionth person to ask for help but here goes. I installed the 2.17 ROM on my Cingular 8125 (yes I CID unlocked). I have seen others post that LEAP authentication is included in the 2.17. Perhaps I am missing something but I don't see it. I am trying to connect to a server that authenticates with LEAP (this uses a dynamic WEP). Is there any ROM update out there that has LEAP or is LEAP only a Cisco technology? I appreciate all the work you guys do!

Funny you mention that - I was just cracking open some of the cab files in the latest ROM and one of them appears to disable LEAP. Let me look into this more and get back to you. I don't use LEAP, so if I find something to try you'll have to let me know how it works out.
Leap?
What the hell is LEAP? or Dynamic WEP? Sounds like a Cisco proprietary wireless thing, I'm more into things like WPA w/ Radius Authentication, or WPA Pre Shared Key (PSK) for simple users. Before that, WEP 128 w/ MAC filtering as well on a private subnet then you'd vpn into the main network.
I'm not sure about any of the other ROMs, but I'm on the 2.17 / 2.23 AKU2.2 ROM that Summiter put out last Friday, and when I go into the Wireless Lan settings, there is a tab called "LEAP". I don't have anything to test that it works, but it looks like the option is there. Hope this helps in some way.
I am running Summiters 2.17 w/ CF2,AD2P,etc. and I also have a LEAP tab in my wifi settings. Likewise, I have no hardware to test if it works, but it's there.
Thanks for the feedback. I see no such tab. Perhaps I installed something incorrectly.
I recently updated my ROM to the custom AKU 2.2 that summiter released. I now have a LEAP tab in my "Wireless LAN" options. I am able to connect to the internet using the LEAP option. However, though the phone says I am connected via WiFi, I am unable to browse using Internet Explorer. I keep receiving an error message that says "Connection was lost" when clearly my connection is stable. Also, I get the same message when I try to connect to anything via WiFi (not just a LEAP authenticated server). Pehaps this goes back the the cab file issue summiter mentioned. Is anyone else experienceing WiFi issues with the new ROM?
ok just for everyone who was trying to get these, i have tried all of them, none work, maybe it's a problem in my BB account still not sure.
i linked all of them here for better support for guys like me.
hi,
I am on Cingular in the Us. Am I able to use any of these cab files to put blackberry on my Tytn or is it network specific and if it is, is there a generic blackberry client I can put on my device?
Thanks,

most of these 3 could work with any operator as i have been told before but still i think someone who succeeded to activate it would be better to give you the ok.
the Blackberry service depends on your registration with your operator not the application, these are just extracts From the ROMs provided by the operator meaning, you need GPRS, an active BB account to use them.
if your BB account is activated on the provisioning and at Blackberry i see no problem in you using them.

Thanks for this but my thought is, the company I work for has a BB support for exchange. I have GPRS and if I use the BB configuration which they supply, I should be good? right?

since your company uses exchange then apparently you are using Blackberry Enterprise ( meaning you have a license ) thus there is no problem for you to connect.
P.S. i have tried the 3 of them they do read the IP and APN, so i think you should be ok.
One concern though is the PIN, if your PIN is associated with another handheld you will have to contact your provider to deassociate it from the account on the provisioning site to be able to use it on another handheld.
It it possible for me to set up blackberry on a linux email server?
why should i want this
for as far as I know BB gives me pushmail and access to the company's global addressbook.
in wm5 they're both working for me without this BB function.
so, what else is there in BB I want to have?

If your company has Exchange with Direct Push, it gives you nothing. If your company had a Domino server and Blackberry, it would give you pushmail and addressbook (and calendar sync).
thx. @work there's a lot of BB devices in use by another part of our merged companies. All talking about their great BB funtions. I think that with my BA including pushmail and accessible global contacts including free/busy info, appointments, etc. I have a lot more functionality.
So you say we can use this BB cab files for both personal (which the BB service that operator gives) and work (which my company uses bb enterprise edition for). We can use for every bb service?
And what number will we use when they ask the PIN (what is it anyway) thing?
Thanks
Configuring Blackberry connect using a UK Tmobile ROM on non-Tmobile service provider
The latest Tmobile UK Rom supports blackberry connect but there doesn't appear to be anyway to configure. Anyone get blackberry connect to work with a non-Tmobile service provider using a BES?

when you setup the cab , after opening the application from start/settings/BlackBerry you will press i agree then you will be set in a screen where a PIN will be generated and connection and server status shown.
Yes you can use for Enterprise and Prosumer BB accounts.
configuring IP address for non-O2 UK
I reverted to the O2 UK ROM 1.40 with the BBConnect. Everything appears to be working but its only sending the message headers. I can do a lookup on my office address book but not receive the entire message contents.
I think the problem is because the IP address for the O2 UK blackberry server is hard coded in the installation as 206.51.26.189 and my office's BES is 206.51.26.xxx (other than 189). I have all three blackberry services loaded (ie. AUP, CICAL and CMIME) but these show an IP address of 206.51.26.192. On the BBConnect status screen it shows an IP address of 100.50.40.197. I'm not sure if this is coming from my local GPRS provider or the blackberry service.
I suspect the problem is that my messages are being routed through the O2 UK blackberry server and as such its only sending the message headers. If this is the case is there a way to modify the dll installation files to change the IP address to the IP address I am using in Indonesia? Which file would need to be changed?
Someone must have gotten this to work outside of the UK so any input appreciated.

Thanks for the answer.
Did you get any feedback about this?
Seems to me that the connection settings are in XML format in the BBConnectInfo_bb.dll. However this is signed/versioned so you cant just hexedit the address otherwise the dll wont load.
Unfortunately I have no experience with WM5 SDK.
I tried to install the CAB file but it says :
---------
Unable to install.
Uncertified system

if you are using WM5, i have no idea. i have tried it on wm2003 se and worked great.
also check certification, if you got this handset locked by Etisalat, you may not be able to use it.
i think we need a wm5 expert to advise on this

First of all .. thanks for replying me .. as i searched the net i found another CAB file. and i can send it to you or to anyone who likes.
but the problem now that it installed and connected. generated a PIN # .. stayed live connected for 5 minutes after that it disconnected . when i tried to reconnect it connects for couple of seconds then says disconnected.
so i would be trying something during the coming couple of days using a different mobile to see if the network is blocking me or the device have a problem.

I now have BBConnect working with my companies enterprise server and I am using Vodafone contract and HTC Wizard.
Last week I was using the Molski custom ROM (fantastic ROM btw) and for the love of god BBconnect would not connect. I would connect for a second or two and then disconnect.
On Monday I installed the latest Vodafone UK ROM that is posted on the FTP server. Reinstalled the Vodafone supplied software for BBConnect and Desktop SYNC, and then connected the phone up to my laptop and exchanged PINS using the supplied Desktop SYNC (BBCONNECT) software supplied my Vodafone.
My GPRS Modem setting is web.vodafone.de (I am based in Cologne) You dont need to enter blackberry.net
Disconnected phone from laptop and all works fine. If anyone wants more info, please let me know.

Hi there!
I have a t-mobile mda III for two months. It had the original latest rom released by t-mobile (TMUK 1.42 1.12 1.13.00). I tried to connect to my university's network with wlan, but i have to connect there by VPN too (Connections->My work network->VPN). It worked really good without any problem. But I downloaded the Helmi's wm5.0 rom and i upgraded it. My phone didn't work, so i downgraded back the official TMUK rom, but since that i can't connect to VPN. Everything else is okwith the pda, but i can't use the internet in the university (that connects to the network, but i can't use it without VPN). I think the upgrade and downgrade deleted or changed something in registry or something, i don't know, so please help me!!!!
Really thanks!
It won't be the registry, as the hard resets during the upgrade/downgrade should zap the registry.
VPN has a million things that can go wrong. Access to the server logs would likely point you in the correct direction. I actually gave up on the ipsec/l2tp implementation and switched to using OpenVPN. Far easier to set up, but probably not much use to you as you are limited to what the uni has.
Really thanks for OpenVPN, but i can't use this. I don't know how to use this exactly. In the uni is PPTP vpn, not IPSec, so could you give me some advice about programs to use it.
THX
Personally, I use a Linux server and this page (and others on the site) has been invaluable:
http://www.jacco2.dds.nl/networking/openswan-pocketpc.html
The built-in client on the PPC supports L2TP/IPsec and PPTP. OpenVPN is completely different and incompatible with either. This page contains info on all of the varieties of VPN:
http://www.natecarlson.com/linux/linux-vpn.php
As you are using PPTP, you should be able to follow guidelines for OpenSWAN, as I believe it supports PPTP. The first link I posted has info for the pocket pc.
These pages should help you out somewhat. I'd recommend setting it up on a desktop first as you will be able to see the client logs. Once you get it working, you may have figured out something specific to your university that you need to set.
Has anyone managed to browse the net using their Wizard with the Macbook Leopard via their Bluetooth? I know its possible but I am just not managing. Any help/pointers? Thanks in advance.
Figured it out.
No worries I figured it all out...
How?? Can you share?
Followed this guide..
Well I followed this guide I found after a little googling:
http://justinblanton.com/2006/01/mac-os-x-windows-mobile-bluetooth-modem
One has to download certain drivers available here (as the wonderful article above will explain):
http://www.taniwha.org.uk/
The issue I was having was trying to dial *9***1# (which my service provider had given)
Whereas I changed it to *99# (as the article suggested)
and entered username as [email protected]
and password: yourserviceprovider.
And it worked!
All the best to you, let me know if you succeeded.
doesn't that end up making you pay to connect? I want to do the same thing but dial my local ISP (407.896.XXXX, a local dial up number)
another question I have been trying to solve is how to use a 4gig micro SD chip on a Cingular 8125(Wizard)

Well the configuration that I have mentioned is for GPRS for which you are anyway paying according to your mobile service provider's plan. Connecting via bluetooth you only access your mobile GPRS on the Mac, you pay whatever your mobile service charges you for accessing GPRS via mobile phone. As regards the dial up, I guess you would have to buy the Mac USB modem, then you can dial-in to your ISP.

This answer I do not know since I use a 2gig card which at the moment is more than sufficient.
I've got an easier method that doesn't involve needing to mess with the Mac's bluetooth settings very much...IF you have Internet Sharing on your phone
(which seems to be included in most of the roms I see kicking around this place...)
You also don't need to install any scripts or do much other mucking about...
1. Pair your devices through the usual methods
2. launch internet sharing, select "bluetooh PAN" for PC Connection and hit connect
3. go to the mac's bluetooth settings and select your phone, then hit the 'gear' at the bottom of that menu; click 'connect to network.'
Viola! Internet access without much work!
I feel like I may have oversimplified or missed a step, let me know if you have problems!
BTW--this was done using a VERY recent macbook and dferria's WM5 Touch Rom v 5.0 w/AT&T USA. Your results may vary!
Thanks for adding that information, I guess the method I found is for ROMs which don't have the PAN sharing option. Like mine. At least I couldn't find it.
Hi, sorry for my bad English but I'm a German student. I search a software for Hacking WLAN's by my HTC. I'm working often with PC's and WLAN's also I will explain the others how easy it is to hack a WLAN with a "simple" mobile Phone, is there any Software??
Thanks or your Help
P.S.:
I use the software not for illegal activity!!

Yea, because hacking LAN's and telling people how easy it is to hack them isn't illegal.
Yes, but in a German Forum you get often told that you only want to do illegal when you search for this kind of software.
Well, I don't think they exist. For cracking WEP you'll need quite some wlan packets to unveil the 128bit key, not to mention you'll need some RAM and a fast processor. But if you got this key on many wlans you need to spoof another MAC adress and I don't know any solution for MAC spoofing with a pda. Yeah, they are yet quite powerful (500 MHz, 256 MB RAM etc...) but as for closed-source drivers, different architectures etc. I doubt it's as simple as for normal PCs, especially linux-based OSes.
And there is no avoiding the fact that today's WPA and WPA2 encryption algorithms in conjunction with a secure and long enough alphanumeric password are mostly secure, therefore you can consider this is impossible to hack even with the fastest notebooks available in a reasonable period of time. (WEP could be hacked in a few moments, yep)
I don't know if any solution exists, never heard from anything else than active wlan sniffers. I think it's too complicated for any developer to create a piece of software with direct access to wlan hardware registers as there are other architectures as for PCs and notebooks. Even a passive sniffer would be a hard thing to do.
And I doubt that if any solution exists that it works on more than one or two wlan chipsets - as for the most powerful wlan sniffing tool for ppc available. (forgot the name since it doesn't run for me anyhow)
Yeah, you can sniff, log etc, but for hacking... maybe s/o else knows more on this topic.
And just fyi - it's not illegal to OWN this kind of software (just like radar warner or some outlandish telephones) but it's mostly illegal to USE it/them in certain circumstances. Not to mention §§202a, ff; 303 f. StGB. - For demonstration purposes with the permission of the owner it's surely LEGAL... but i am not a lawyer...
...just my five cents...
