Hi,
On our corporate LAN, we use certificates and user credential authentication, meaning that after properly loading the required certificates, we still have to enter a domain/username/password combination before we're allowed to log onto the network.
Moving from TD1 to TD2, I notice the following change in behaviour for WiFi:
On the TD1: there's ample time to enter all this data
On the TD2: a 'connection rejected' message occurs before I'm able to enter all data
Anyone knows where a sort of timeout value can be tweaked?
Thanks,
Max

hallo,
I have a question about wifi under wm5.
I am trying to access 2 different networks, one at home one in the office.
the networks are set up as follows:
OFFICE
mac address filter, wpa, no ESSID
HOME
mac address filter, wep 256 bit, no ESSID
I added into both routers the mac addr of my device (thanks to vxconfig)
on my imate, in the wireless settings page, LEAP tab, I added 2 settings, one for home and one for the office.
I noticed that I'm unable to manually type in the WEP key, while I can do this at home.
As you might imagine, I'm unable to connect to either network, though I don't get any particular error message. I simply don't connect; the router's log doesn't show any kind of access.
Both networks work fine, naturally. my device works fine too, as I'm able to connect to public hotspots.
I seem to remember, but I'm not sure (hence my question), that wifi under wm5 only accepts 128 bit keys...
might this be the problem? or am I doing something else wrong?
also, is there a program that allows me to manually set the WEP key under wm5, or a program that gives greater control over wifi?
thanks!
ok, update: I don't understand how, but when I clicked on the tools button in the wireless manager page, and then on Network cards, instead of the usual network cards page there was this page in which I could insert the wep open key, etc.
I clicked on OK, then tried it again and voilà, the page has disapepared again and there is the usuale network cards page.
where has it gone??? I don't get it honestly.
I've been struggling with OpenVPN on my Vario III on T-Mobile and hope someone can throw me a bit of a lifeline.
I can connect to my OpenVPN (running on my WRT54GS router) via wifi but the problem is when I try over 3G. Even when I've specified the provider and ticked "exclusive", it manages to connect to my OpenVPN server but I get no further connectivity (to webpages etc).
As said, via wifi this config on my Kaiser works perfectly...
Code:
remote xxxxxx.homeip.net
port 22
dev tap
secret "\\Program files\\OpenVPN\\config\\secret.key"
proto tcp-client
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
comp-lzo
cipher AES-256-CBC
route gateway 192.168.xxx.xxx
redirect-gateway
dhcp-option DNS 192.168.xxx.xxx
but when tried via 3G it seems to have a problem with setting the routing..
Code:
Mon Oct 22 21:58:00 2007 ROUTE: route addition failed using CreateIpForwardEntry: The parameter is incorrect.
Just wondering if there is something either with the T-Mobile network or the Vario III which is specifically stopping me from using OpenVPN
Or are my settings misconfigured?
I've also attached a full copy of the log.
Thanks for any help you can give (Give generously)

Sounds suspiciously like a NAT traversal or proxy issue to me. On the HSDPA network, there's a proxy in the picture. I don't believe that's the case for the Edge network. That could easily be the cause of the problem.
Surely once the connection has been established the NAT issue shouldn't be a problem?
TBH I thought the route addition problem was due to the software being unable to update the local routing table?
NAT traversal issues often manifest themselves as connections that look like they're established, then die immediately. The VPN participants have to know the actual IP addresses of the devices involved, and understand that NAT is happening. Proxies also need to play a role in that process since they're effectively "standing in" for your device. And they may be configured not to permit IPSec traffic at all.
What you've described sounds exactly like NAT traversal issues - the negotiation appears to go just fine, but the actual connection dies on the vine. Since the end points don't have the right data from the negotiation (actual valid addresses to build the tunnel around), the route they try to build is invalid and fails.
In your log, it's impossible to tell since the IP addresses have been all translated to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. But I suspect that the ones up until the "TCP connection established with..." message are all displaying valid public IP addresses, and somewhere very shortly after that they start displaying private RFC 1918 addresses.
Proxies + NAT +IPSec = small nightmares. This is one of the reasons SSL VPNs have gained significantly in popularity.

Quick update:
I've just connected my Laptop to the internet via my Kaiser using 3G.
Ran OpenVPN and it connected without a problem.
Technically this would suggest that I should be able to connect with my kaiser but theres either a problem with my config or a bug in the PPC openvpn software :S
I haven't tried on UDP yet which will be my next test....
Any ideas?
Blimey, I didn't know there was a PPC client! I'll try it to see if it works with my setup.
Well I can't even get it to talk to my server so won't be able to help !
Fire up the card in your laptop and take a look at the IP address assigned to your machine. Since it's a different service, they may not be passing you through the proxy that's in place for the Kaiser. If you've received a public address, then you're on a "different network" even though both are 3G services.

?? When you connect a laptop via BT to the kaiser, (using internet sharing) it creates a NAT which the traffic is passed over through the 3G service. Essentially using the same service..
Unless you mean the "service" between the windows software & the PPC/WM software is different?
Plus how'd you mean fire up the card in my laptop?
Cheers for your help on this btw.
I'm assuming that the Laptop data service and the PDA data service are treated differently within the AT&T network. While the PDA passes through a proxy, I suspect the laptop does not.
When I say "fire up the laptop card," I mean establish a connection and look at your IP address (ipconfig from a command prompt will show it). It may be a different IP address range than the PDA receives (which you could see using VxIPConfig or VxUtils). Even if it's within the same range, it may be bypassing the proxy.
So while you're using essentially the same technology, I suspect the services are implemented very differently, and that's what we're trying to sort out.
I dont believe it!!!
I downloaded VM Net Brower checked what IP addresses were being assigned and connected successfully! Loaded up www.whatismyip.org and it came up with the proxy of my PC at home.
Unfortunately, my phone was running incredibly slow and thought it best to do a soft reset... afterwards no matter what I do, I can't connect. I just cant figure out why or replicate what I did
Argh.. this is getting to me now... next on the agenda is to try changing the port number from 22 to 8080 or 80 and see what happens.
ok, first of all, i checked every single thread on this page hoping to get a solution for my problem.
HTC Diamond, D-Link DWL-900AP+ Access Point.
My Diamond can "see" the Access Point, but is unable to connect with it.
Authentification WPA-PSK
Encryption TKIP
Networkkey Manually inserted and 100% correct.
Hook set at IEEE802.1x
EAP Typ = Smartcard or security certificate (but it's greyed out)
Network Card connects to Internet
From Server given IP Adress (hook set) DHCP on Access Point enabled
MAC Filters disabled
I also played around with the available network tabs.
I have vodafone DE, vodafone internet, company network or ISP
The the slider of the energy saving modus ist set to best performance.
What the hell is going wrong????
I also owe a HTC Touch Elfin and have no problems to access my network/internet.
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated
thank you
try deleting your network saved setting from list, make sure network card connects to internet, not work, find access point, and enter your password again.
this works for me in similar situations.
works if you start fresh, and not trying to connect with the same settings. i dont know why but has saved my ass a few times.
Also, try changing the encryption from TKIP to AES and see if that works....
I have the same problem! It's something about DHCP. My Diamond connects to my home wifi onli if I set the IP (which belongs to my phone on access point) address in the properties of network adapter.
HI did you try to put the host address of a site?
write 64.233.167.99 instead of google.it in case you can see the page the problem is the dns not resolved and insert manually in your phone connection

Same here, it looks like a DHCP time-out or routing problem. I've set up a DHCP server with a small pool of adresses on the acces point itself and now my Diamond always connects correctly. Before that, my Diamond would state that i had entered a invalid security key.
diamond connects but i cannot visit any website
Hi,
I have a similar problem. My diamond gets an ip address from dhcp, connects to dwl-900ap+ but i am not able to open any website (I tried to open some web with url and with its ip address too) - tried opera and IE too. In opera i get a "could not locate remote server" error. (Looks like a DNS problem?) I am not even able to open the AP's configuration web with diamond. Every other wifi enabled equipment I tried (1 notebook with win vista, 1 with XP, 1 with debian linux, nokia n95 with symbian and e-ten m700 with win mobile 5) works without a single problem. I also tried to reset the AP and my diamond - without success.
I didn't change any setting on the AP except for setting up a WEP encryption (i know, i know, it's not a strong encryption ), the SSID and the AP's ip address. Everything else is default. My dhcp server is not the access point. DHCP runs on a similarly configured router with wifi AP (diamond connects without problem).
Any idea/solution? thanks
Well, I recently decided to register my phone for use on my universities network. However, in order to access the network, I am forced to login to a page that uses SSL encryption. When I try to access the page, the browser returns an error telling me it was unable to obtain a secure connection and it refuses to load the page.
I did some Googling and it seems that the Android platform currently denies a connection if it finds *anything* wrong with the SSL certificate. Anyone know a way around this?
All I get at work is "Wifi Connected, but no internet". How can I re-direct?
Hi everyone,
I have been happily using my rooted NC (1.1+Autonooter3) for the last two weeks or so... At home, NC connects to my WiFi network without any problems. However, at work I have to force it to do one thing to be able to connect, and I dont know how to do that...
Specifically, at work, we have an open campus WiFi network that I normally use with my iPod Touch, MBP, etc. On my MBP, when you connect to the network and start a browser, a new page opens and asks for a username/password and provides access. On iPod Touch, as soon as I connect to the network, a pop up screen (not safari) asks for a user name/password and it remembers it for a while (e.g., I dont have to enter it again for a while even if the device is off for an extended amount of time). When I try to use my NC under the same network, it connects, receives an IP address, but after "testing" period, it displays "no internet" (because I am not asked to enter my credentials). Opening a browser doesn't bring up a page to enter them either. At only one (1) occasion, while waiting for the WiFi to connect I saw a message "the network is attempting to re-direct, do you want to allow it" (or something along those lines) and a pop up asked for a user name /password and the connection worked. However, I have no way of getting that message (tried many many times since), and it simply doesn't show up.
Is there any way that I can enable "re-directing" for that particular network so that I can enter my username and password to use it? Is there an alternative approach (e.g., having the browser to ask the first time it starts?
Thanks in advance!
