Is there any way to do this? The network at my school (UC Merced) uses 802.1x Dynamic WEP with PEAP and MSCHAPv2. The SSID is visible, but when I try to connect, it asks me for the WEP key, which is obviously not how the connection works.
I've tried using the free version of Wifi Helper, but there's no option for PEAP with WEP. Yet if I try WPA2 Enterprise, the phone sees it as a different connection and won't let me connect with it.
Is there any way to do this, or am I SOL?
My school has campus-wide wifi that is encrypted using 802.1x enterprise encryption and I can't get my N1 to connect to it. Under the wifi settings the network shows up in range, but it shows up as a WEP wifi connection which isn't the case. I can manually add a connection and choose 802.1x and configure it as it should in order to connect, however when I do that it shows up at the bottom of the list as "Not in range, remembered" despite the fact that the SSID of the same name still shows up as that incorrect WEP encrypted connection.
Has anyone successfully connected to a 802.1x encrypted connection using their N1?
Do you need to install a security cert?
My N1 doesn't arrive until tomorrow, and I haven't tried connecting to my current school's wireless network. My last school had enterprise security, and I had to install a certificate on my laptop, and special software on my Windows mobile.
If no one else gets back to you, I'll see if I can screw around tomorrow evening.
Some googlin' brought up some maybe relevant info:

I am using a stock Nexus One on Android 2.2. I got it running by entering the following (be sure to 'FORGET' the SSID that automatically comes up in favour of manually creating it) at 'Settings' >> WiFI:
EAP method: (I can choose b.w. PEAP, TLS or TTLS) and I choose PEAP
CA certificate: no choice … merely shows in brackets (unspecified)
User certificate: (unspecified)
Identity: (I enter) [MY-USERNAME, e.g., [email protected]]
Anonymous identity: (leave blank)
Password: [MY_PASSWORD]
Our university relies on WPA2/EAP/MS-CHAP .... but in our case putting the entire username did the trick.
I believe the Android 2.1 UI is deficient and will not let you enter the above, and from what I have read those who have 'rooted' their phone (and voided their warranty) have placed something like the following wpa_supplicant.conf file in /etc/wifi :
##### wpa_supplicant configuration file template #####
update_config=1
ctrl_interface=eth0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
Network={
ssid="MY_SSID"
key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
eap=PEAP
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
identity="MY_USERNAME"
password="MY_PASSWORD"
}
Some have mentioned that any certificate (e.g., Thawte) should be .p12 configuration and placed in the root directory of the SD Card. The best info for those who want to 'root' their Nexus one is Joe Levi's commentary at: http://pocketnow.com/tweaks-hacks/video-flashing-froyo-on-your-nexus-one
But as I stated, I have mine running the Net locally, and just need the proxy turned off by the uni. to get out.
Hope this helps.
I'm having the same issue at work. It appears as a WEP network and adding it as 802.1x says the network is not in range.
I'll give that wpa_supplicant.conf hack a go later.
I solved this issue, with the WiFi Advanced Config Editor (available in the marketplace)
my WIFI is 802.1x, with PEAP,MSCHAP v2
connect to the listed wifi with wep enabled, use any password
then modify the configuration with the WiFi Advanced Config Editor set as 802.1x, PEAP, MSCHAP v2, set user identity and password remove and remove any WAP settings
a enjoy
In my case, i have ICS 4.0, i try all suggestions above, but not work.
Someone can help me? Please
Hi! I'm trying to connect my friend's Razr i to our university wifi network. The configuration is: 802.11 EAP TLS, using a client certificate and a username, no password. The issue is that when I set up the connection and choose TLS as the security protocol, the settings are not saved correctly. In fact, after the connection fails, when I choose modify network, the security protocol has "magically" changed to AKA. I'm going crazy, I have already tried the Leap wifi app suggested in the Razr forum, but it only allows me to connect to networks with a password.
After rebooting, the network seems to be correctly saved but it just won't connect, it stays "Connecting..." for a few seconds then suddenly stops. That's it.
Thank you in advance.
Finally got it to work after messing around with all the settings. It's still buggy but it connects at least. I just can't figure out what could I have changed to make it work.

Hello Guys,
I'm stuck with this issue. My Nook HD+ cannot connect to the Wifi hotspot of my phone. It keeps saying "Obtaining IP.." and then disconnected, and then obtaining IP again . I tried to change the encryption methods, WPA to WEP, even no encryption but it didn't help. Connection to other devices (routers) is fine. Anyone has the same problems? I am using CM10.1 version 08/01
This is usually an authentication failure.
Have you connected any other devices thru your smartphone and has success???
The hotspot app must have both a network name and a pass phrase set up.
Don't use any offered defaults: enter a new network name and a decently secure WPA pass phrase.
I use FoxFi on my Droid Razr and that app uses WPA2 only.
Then all you have to do is select the correct network and enter the pass phrase on your Nook.
While I was running the FTL CM11 build from 11/19, I attempted to connect to my schools WiFi which uses EAP authentication. I encountered a problem where I would not be able to connect to a network behind EAP, but could successfully connect to an open WiFi network. I have confirmed that EAP does work in TripNDroid however.
