How can I get vpn working? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Any ideas on how I can get vpn working? I am trying to connect to VyprVpn. The Note says it has connected but nothing works. I.e. I try to go to a web site but it won't load.
My laptop and my Acer Iconia all work fine with the same settings.
I think it's a problem with Android as my S II had the same issue. However if any one has any suggestions...

I am having the same problem. I connect to the VPN and it has the key and says connected. no data will work while it is connect. My IT guy says it is connected buy no data is going in or out. I try to connect to my RDT and it times out. Settings work fine on the iPhone and iPad.

+1 I have the same problem on both S1 and note.

Any ideas?????

Success, use l2tp
Following another post, I got it working using these instructions for l2tp:

Still not working for me - did you connect over wifi?

l2tp works for me over wifi and mobile

Same problem here when trying to connect to my firm's VPN.
Works smooth over wifi but nothing on 3G (it says connected but I can't do anything). Just once it loaded half page.
Vodafone says is not their problem.

try this http://www.purevpn.com/tutorials.php

I'm facing the same issue connected to my OverPlay VPN, anyone managed to find a solution?

Use l2tp or upgrade to ICS.

[Q] Wi-Fi problem

Over the past few days my phone hasn't been wanting to connect to my wi-fi. I would have to turn wi-fi on and off several times before it would connect. Today it just stopped connecting all together. It now shows my network but says its "out of range" I'm withing 10 ft so I know it's not. Earlier today it would just say scanning and then disabled under the network name. Anyone know why it would not be working at all? Also I have a ps3 hooked up wireless and it works fine so I know it's not the router.

without knowing your specifics how can we help you?
are you rooted? what rom? version? kernal? recovery?
I had the same problem...got a new phone from att and still did the same. Did you try resetting your router...for some reason my captivate is sensitive to my router and even though everything else wireless in the house works fine the phone says wifi disconnected....hopefully resetting your router does it

Try changing the channel.on your router to channel 11 and then setting a static ip address on your phone.
I am assuming you are using a standard home user router such as a linksys or netgear and that you are using a captivate, so I doubt you are having issues due.to encryption or using the wrong type.wireless.

WIFI router not working on Tilt 2 with Energy rom

I have been using the WIFI router on my tilt 2 ever since I got it, I even bought the WM WIFI Router program in the Windows Market, and that doesn't work either. Iam using the energy 27.dec.2010 and I even tried using another energy rom also, no luck. Everything goes with the startup, the device connects and I see I have a good connection, but when I try to use browser/data its saying its not connected to the online signal. Its seems to pair fine and connect but I can't use any features with data even though I have full WIFI bars and all the icons are correct. I even tried it with another sim, nothing. Anyone else having this problem?

Have you tried any other roms here on the forum to see if any of them have same issue?
fwiw the WiFi Router included in every Energy version I've flashed works fine, latest is about mid Feb I think.
Are you sure the device you're trying to connect to the phone fully supports adhoc connections? I had a Linux distro do that to me not too many years ago... everything appeared fine but wouldn't communicate through a legit version of router software that worked fine with a Windows laptop (same one actually). When I emailed tech support they apologized and told me that "feature" was still in development.
Yes they do support adhoc connections. They will both connect fine but its like its somehow not getting a signal. I can use usb to teather to media net and.connect. but still can't get the wifi router working. And also after I connect with wifi router but before I connect a.device the wifi icon that's is supposed to be blue is blinking blue before I connect a device I don't remember this happening before?

Everything worked well.
Two months ago, i went for overcome 1.4 and I had a great improvements on performances.
Now I found router wifi not working because is countinuosly stucking on looking ip address. I don't know if it happened because I changed ROM or other issues.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

Restart Tab, Restart Router. Report back after that please.
Tab restarted. Computer restarted. Router wifi restarted.
Tried but same problem: stucking on ip looking.
I also tried tethering but same issue.
Do I need tp install something (like modem from overcome) ?
Thanks.

Did you restart the router fully?
I went to configuration - wireless - router wifi - and i flagged the router wifi option.
I'm not speaking about my router but the router wifi functionality inside the galaxy tab...

As advised restart your router. i.e Unplug router from mains power. Wait 30 seconds and plug it back in.
As suggested. Power cycle all your devices. COLD boot them meaning. SWITCH them off till they are dead router, pc, and GTAB, wait at least 30 seconds. Fire them back on and try again. If you still have issues and you dont connect to Adhoc networks. Consider changing the wpa_supplicant of overcome to one from stock. You can find it in the overcome thread. Search for it.
Thanks for your suggestions but I'm not speaking about the normal router for the computer.
I'm speaking about the router wifi function inside the galaxy tab where you use the galaxy tab as access point wifi for any computer.... this is the router I mean (or access point) that doesn't work.
I think there is something in overcome ROM ... I also tried to setup as open access opint (that means without WPA) but same story.
Do I need to flash something in overcome ?
try a thether apk from marketplace as there are issues
mind you...each country has different galaxy tabs
here in the netherlands there are no restrictions and is all working including the phone and router functions

Even tho you have solved your problem, another device in your house could have the same IP

As above.. When I try to switch on to my portable wifi hotspot, I'm getting error but I'm still ale to connect it from my pc but it's state no Internet connection.. Anyone have any idea what's wrong? Thanks..

Hi I'm having the same problem with my HTC Desire HD. I also can't connect by wifi. I spoke to HTC about the problem & they advised me to do a factory reset.... which I did but it didn't resolve the problem. Not being very technically minded I am assuming that this means it is not a software problem & the fault lies with the hardware. I'm going to take it into Tmobile for repair.

I know this is as old as the mountains, but is there still no fix for a Secured Portable wifi hotspot for the p1000? Is that why it doesn't have a stable version yet?
Everything else works great on cm10 even though some settings like WIFI Region code and Preferred Network Type has to be reset after every nightly update and Reboot.
But, it is still great.

Connects but doesn't surf wifi!

Hi, I have this s3 mini (SM G730W8) . I have had it for 4 months and never had any problems. But since yesterday, it connects to wifi network internet doesn't work. Chrome says you are offline after trying , apps can't connect etc.
The device works fine on LTE.
Other devices can connect to the same wifi and are working fine, even other samsung devices.
Please advise.

when your phone connects to the wifi does it obtain an ip address?
I believe so, it even shows connected to xyz network. But when I start browsing...nothing!
Oddly enough, even when I try to connect to those free wifi networks which require 'sign in' as opposed to username/password. The 'signin' page doesn't open either!
I would have reflashed stock firmware to see if it solves it, otherwise it must be some hardware failure.

ok, thanks. I will check it out over the weekend.
