Xoom VPN client? - Xoom Themes and Apps

Looking to use vpn on the xoom to get into my corporate account.
I just got the 3g xoom yesterday so I haven't really looked to see if there is something already in the OS, but any help to get pointed into the right direction would be awesome.
Thanks!

The xoom has built in VPN, just go to Settings > Wireless > VPN
It supports PPTP, L2TP, L2TP/IPsec PSK and L2TP/IPsec CRT

Hi,
My firm is usimg a Cisco VPN,
is it also working with it? Which one should I use?
Isthere a third part client working with Xoom and Cisco?
Cisco offers one in the market, but its needs some certificate depositated by myfirm on a Cisco server which is not possible .
Any idea??
Thanx

Thank you wolfcry....

Wireless tether?

I just rooted a phone on .5 stock firmware. Wireless tether from the market and pre 9 both install fine and start fine... but on other devices i dont see the network showing up. Is there a modified version or one that works good with stock? Thanks

I just tried pre3 and 3 evos dont see the ssid but a iphone does? Wtf someone please help haha

it shares the network in ad-hoc mode. Android phones by default can't see that unless they have a modified wpa supplicant. Iphone's and pc's can use it, buy game systems can't either. And apparently, neither can chrome os, damnit...

Is this possible?

It is possible, but why would you do such a thing?
You are already connected to the internet using wifi? What does the proxy accomplish for you?

Well my school blocks apps and some websites so the proxy would bypass it

It depends how they block it. A vpn would be better for what you are trying to do. If your urls are in cleartext and they use a commercial filter that uses pattern matching, it wont work.

No harm in trying, how would i set up a vpn

Its a bit beyond the scope of this forum, but you can usually set it up right from your router if it is modern or high end.
Otherwise you will need a server. windows and linux can do this. You are are probably looking to build an ipsec vpn. Just google it. It can be tricky. On the milestone side, you need a rom that supports a tunneling kernel module (older ROMs mostly). This is usually called tun0.

ive been trying to get it to work for hours, setting up a private vpn on windows 7, looking for free vpn services, this is rather difficult

Working Wireless Tether for Android Tablets

Found this version of wireless tether for my fascinate that my Kyros MID7015 can connect to.
http://code.google.com/p/android-wi...tail?name=wifi_tether_v3_0-pre11.apk&can=2&q=

Awesome. I like this.

Because the name is rediculous.
EDIT: I just got this to work and it seems great! To get it to work you need to press menu while in the app and go to settings. At the top of setting press change device-profile and choose Samsung Fascinate from the list and you are good to go (atleast it was for me).

thats cause they use ad hoc tethering which stock android doesnt support. You need infrastructure tethering which this apparently does....although I forgot to test it last night.

Exactly, i've tried some tweaks and apps which did not work until i stumbled
on this version. Google search, best thing ever.
FYI - This works for wifi on the Kindle whereas the old tether didn't. Make sure you go to settings and select the "device profile" to Samsung Fascinate.

Works great.....good find.
Thanks for the tip! This works great! Been using the vzw hotspot hack but i would keep having data issues while using it. This is working flawless! Even played 2 hrs of Black ops on my ps3 with zero issues using this. I immediately uninstalled my old wireless tether v2.07 cuz although infrastructure was supposedly supported with it, I could never get it to work. Anyway, thanks a bunch for the find and sharing this with us.
Sweet, thank you OP! I was trying to get wireless tether to work for 3 days now.
Great find, man. This works so much better for me than barnacle. Thanks for sharing.
Won't launch the Hotspot for me. Keeps giving me "Started with errors" and then in the log say it can't load the firmware
Running SirGatez Blazed kernel with DJ05 Superclean.
Why not just use the Verizon 3g mobile hotspots with the help of qpst.

Only issue I've had with this, is that it will randomly shut my phone off. It's weird. No reboot. Just turned off.

Same here. After about an hour of tethering using this app, it will reboot randomly. Kind of annoying when im in the middle of something
But works well other than that.

Works but again as posted above doesn't work on Market. Is there a fix or did I miss a step?
Thanks

You probably need Froyo
Anyway, there's a newer release of v3.0 out. You folks still getting random shutdowns with this?

Wireless Tether in CM7

What wireless tether app is everyone using? I am currently trying the 2.0.8 off their google code page, but it works very sporadically.
Anyone have a good method for this?
Thanks!
Barnacle works great get on the android market

Try "A WiFi Tether AP Mesh Client" by Open Garden, Open Source. It worked great for me.
I have 2.0.6 I haven't tried it on 4G yet but not sure if that matters. Worked perfectly.

Ya if you go into wireless settings there's a new option, just check it and its a wireless hotspot so you don't need the app

Barnacle is VERY slow... most I got on a speed test was 1.5mb on my desktop. The built in wireless tether just doesnt work. Never connects.
the built in wireless tether on cm7 did not work for me either but i didn't mess around with it much and i already a saved apk for wireless tether 2.0.6 which i have been using ever since i rooted months ago on all different roms i've tried. worked for me. i had to change the channel in the settings to get better connection since i also have a dinc running cm7 and also using wireless tether 2.0.6 on there too.
I am using 2.07. I have to start, then stop, then start again to get it going the first time I use tether after a reboot, but other than that works great. 3.1 beta 1 and CM7 tethers would not work for me. Also tethering with 4G.

N7 Web filtering.

8 year old is getting Nexxy 7 for Christmas. Need to put some restrictions in place to prevent his precious eyes seeing things he shouldn't ; )
Does anyone know of any decent apps\methods to restrict web browsing?
I think I have everything else covered - with the help of this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1997986
Suppose if it comes to it I can just freeze the browser with tit backup.
Thanks,
Andy.

If you are looking for a free solution opendns might be an option for you... You set the dns servers either in the device or router
Opendns then filters traffic based on your ip... Might be worth a look
Steve
Thanks for reply.
Have thought about this.. How do you go about changing DNS servers on Android though? (It would probably be 4.2)
Setting the DNS on the router I could do - but that would filter everything in the house wouldn't it?

Not something I thought about. The lol a quick Google search gives a few reply... There is a set dns application in the play store.
Thought about doing it on the router... Connecting to any other network would result in unfiltered access so not ideal.... There are other proxy services out there... Might be worth looking in play store for a solution?
