I am having problems setting up my WiFi connection with my SDA (HTC Tornado ...Tmobile unlocked) with Windows mobile 5 and i cant find a solution..please help me...
When using my laptop wifi connect I set up the following
Network Authentication OPEN
Data Encryption WEP
key is automatically provided (i tick this option)
Enable IEEE 802.1x authentication for this network
EAP Type as PEAP.
Then under configuration of PEAP I uncheck Validate Server Certificate and authentication method selected as "Secured password (EAP-MSCHAP v2) and "enable fast reconnect" is also ticked.
With these settings it works perfectly well in laptop. But with these settings made in the SDA phone it gives the following error msgs ; "The server certificate is issued by an unknown authority" and "Cannot log on to the wireless network. This network requires a personal certificate to positively identify you."
I have done the registry edit (adding DWORD ValidateServCert=0). It stopped showing the message ""The server certificate is issued by an unknown authority". But the other msg still comes. Actually for PEAP we wont want personal certificate. I think this is a bug. Then i installed a dummy personal cert to cover this bug. Now no more error msgs, but internet is not connected.
Then i installed the root certificate (specific for my univ) i got from my laptop (windows xp). But no effect. I checked under root cert to see if it is there and i saw it there.
Sorry for this long story sometimes we need long explanations to fully understand the problem.
SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ....
try using a key that is not provided automatically. May not be the fix you want, but it works for me (never tried doing it your way).
I have the AT&T Fuze with the stock ROM. I purchased it the first day it came out. I think this was 11/11/2008. I have the PDA Personal plan for unlimited data. I have things set up so that my contacts and email synch with our Exchange server. I can remote desktop from my Fuze using the data network to any machine that I can remote to from my computer, so from that, I am thinking VPN must be configured correctly. On one of these machines that I connect to, I have IIS running and put a very simple web page on it (no script, nothing IE specific). From my work computer, it loads fine. I can remote desktop from my Fuze to any machine on the network and launch IE and load it. But, I can't load it directly from my Fuze in either Opera or IE. It does initiate the VPN connection. But, then I get the error HTTP gateway timed out. I'm really not interested in viewing the page that I created. We use Perforce, which is source control system. It has a jobs portion, which we use to track bugs. There is a web interface to the jobs, which is on the intranet, not internet. I don't have rights to remote to the Perforce server, and that is why I initially tried putting a simple page on a machine that i am an admin on. I want to be able to click on a link in my email and have it load the bug in Opera. If I am home and turn on WiFi, and disable the data network, this works fine. This bypasses AT&T's machines, which makes me think there is something that AT&T is blocking. And if they are, then maybe it is the AT&T bloat this is telling them what it is. Our IT guy has verified that I am successfully VPNing in. He is seing the mycingular.net in the firewall.
My boss has the same phone, but purchased more recently, and his is working fine for this. He has flashed the new AT&T test ROM, and done the thing that keeps the AT&T bloat from getting installed.
The fact that remote desktop works, but browsing a webpage on the same machine does not, makes me think there is more to this than just network settings.
If anyone has the anwer to this, please share. If I find the answer, I will post it is well. I have extensively searched the forum for the answer to this, and have not found anything that worked. If I have missed something, I appologize.
Sort of works now, still have an issue
After going to the proxy tab, and checking that This network connects to the Internet and checking the check box that this network uses a porcy server to connect to the internet. Then specify the server. Then go to Advanced and change the HTTP port to 8080 instead of just 80. I also put the user id, password and Domain in on the proxy for HTTP.
But I get prompted for a user id and password from the proxy erveer. I have entered it and clicked the checkbox to save it. It does not display the same info that I entered the next time and it does not display what was entered on the HTTP proxy page. It is a drop down, and I can select the correct one. It's just annoying to need to. I'd like to clear this cache.
Also, to initially get it working I had to disable HSDPA and HSUPA, restart. Then reenable it. I have the registry on my Fuze which give me the menu option on the Advanced network tab to do this.
Figured out how to clear the cache issue - still prompts
The cache was a setting in Opera for passwords.
It still asks for the password. At least it is prefilled with the correct info, since I now only have the one entry, so it is just 1 click, but I should not need to do this step.
Any one know what I need to do to fix this.
If I try to load it in IE, it just tries but never succeeds and never asks for a password, just says Opening.
Connections
Why should I need to set this to connect to the Internet, and use the ISA server? I would think if it needs to connect to the internet, it should be able to just use the Media Net
My Media Net Settings are
Modem -
Name - Modem
Media Net - wap.cingular
Advanced shows the modem in the drop down list as Cellular Line (GPRS, 3G)
The drop down is disabled
Next
Access Point Nam - wap.cingular
Next
User name - [email protected]
don't know what the password is. I've never changed it.
Domain is blank
Next
TPC/IP
Use server - assigned IP address is selected
Use software compression and use IP header compression are checked.
Use slip is not checked and the checkbox is disabled
Servers
Use Servr Assigned addresses is selected
So DN,Alt DNS, WINS, and ALT WINS are disabled.
Proxy Settings
This network connects to the internet
This networks uses a proxy server to connect to the internet is not checked.
More info and additional question
Navigating to some intranet sites does not prompt me for the isa server.
such as http://machine/virtdir/Default.aspx
seems to work without being prompted
but
http://perforcemachine:8080/@md=d&cd=//&[email protected]//?ac=107&mx=25
prompts me for the password.
Also, in order to get either of these links to work, I need to have in my exceptions:
*.companyname.com/*
Where companyname is the actual companyname.
This is annoying because it makes it connect to the VPN when synching with the exchange server. Before I want on the quest to get these links to intranet sites to work, I synched with the exchange server without connecting to the VPN.
I've tried putting in isa.companyname.com in the exceptions, but that doesn't work.
Is there a way to do *.companyname.com/* except mail.companyname.com?
I suspect all of this is in the registry somewhere.
I tried all the options but no avail:
Disabled proxy with builtin cab
Used Advance Config Tool & Diamond Tweak to disable 3g
Increase Power to WIFI
Enter the proxy credentials properly
Select WORK in the connections
I am connected to the network through the WEP key. I have an IP address.
But the thing the intrigues me the most is that I cannot hit outside with Opera or IE unless is the Intranet. BUT, I can hit my comcast email throught the email tabs>inbox>send receive. This email account is from the outside. How the hell? The network guy said that I have all the credentials properly entered and that I should be hitting outside throught the proxy. What gives?
Ok, so I got it to half of it to work.
Disabled proxy through CAB
Enter proxy credentials to "My Work Network"
Network adapters>card>"the internet"
SSID>Connects to>"work"
Applications that use internet connect with: My work network
I can connect to the internet outside now, but I cant update my email accounts that are in the outside. Only if I change my SSID to connect to the internet, then email works again, but internet doesnt.
Anyone that has gone through this crap please post something.
Thanks.
Well, I knew it was to soon to scream victory.
It now appears that I have to have IExplorer running in the background to be able to surf through Opera and use Google Maps. If I dont have IE open, then I get prompts from the proxy in Opera and Network problems in G-Maps. This is just too freaking weird. What shagging combination is going to make everything work!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Well actualy it works, i think. I manage to get to my Login screen where it asks for password, but it keeps saying username/password wrong. And that cant be cus im loged in with the same password right now.
Doesnt make any sense, what am i doing wrong?

try to log off pc then logon from phone.
Remote desktop, using Remote Desktop Mobile?
If it hasn't been done already you'll want to activate RDP on your PC (Using Windows 7, PC Control Panel > System > Advanced system settings (on the left) > "Remote control" tab, check "Allow connection from devices using any version of Remote Desktop (less secure)")
If it already has been activated then I'm not sure.
Obviously you need to be on the same network and point it to the correct address, but logging in from a remote desktop automatically logs out from any local session. At least that's what it does here.
Sorry if it didn't help.
best way to try this is be on your WiFi network at home, Put in the Ip address of the PC you want to use then the username and password.
This works on mine ok
so it can only be used in the home network ?
I mean....using a different wi-fi access doesn' t work?
Make sure you have a password set for the user account you are trying to log on with. If you haven't set a password it will give invalid password error.
I have some issues setting this up. I write the following. Please let me know if i type it wrong:
Computer: Name of my computer
User: Username
Password: Password that i use to loggin to my computer
Domain: My home networks IP.

If you can't connect using the computer name, try using the IP address of your computer. Unless the computer you wish to connect to is part of a network domain, you can leave that field blank.
If you're trying to connect via a WAN (Internet) connection then you'll need to have IIS installed on your PC and configured on your router/firewall.

thanks! works fine, but the sound is horrific. any way to fix that?
I have enabled RDP on my PC yes, and i dont see the point of doing remote desktop from my wifi network, i can just aswell go ahead and use the computer then.
I have a data flatrate on my phone im going away for a week and i wanted to have access to my pc over the internet.
I typed in my IP adress in the Computer field
My Login Username into User Name field
My Login Password into Password field
Domain i left empty because i dont realy know what am i suposed to write there.
It gets me to my login screen of the PC, where i have to putin my password again for my only PC account. I type it in and it says wrong username/password.
And yeah i have tried loging out on the pc first, still the same thing.
Right click on "My Computer" and select properties. Go to the tab called "Computer Name" and look what it says is the "Full computer name". That is what you need in domain name.
So, you have the external IP address of your PC (don't forget, this will probably change with a router reboot), your username & password, and then the domain name from above.
That should do the trick, but let us know if it doesn't.
Still says username/password wrong. Ive even changed the pasword to something realy simple with no Y or Z because maybe the keyboard might be set to english/german or something. Ive also opened the Port in my router. Im out of ideas. Im not on the new updated rom btw, still the preinstalled one, but i dont think that should matter.
Thanks for your help.
Uhm, let me get this straight: You are trying to use RDC from somewhere outside your own network at home where your computer resides?
Check these things:
1. Make sure that you have opened RDP in your router and forward to the correct IP-adress (your computer).
2. If you have any sort of firewall installed (F-secure, Norton, ZoneAlarm etc etc), make sure you have opened the port for incoming connections to port 3389 and also that you havent set it for a specific IP (the one you are connecting from, not your computer).
3. If you do see the loginscreen you have enabled the service, otherwise you wouldnt see it at all (doh...). RDC-service doesnt allow blank passwords (unless you know how to hack the service) so you must have a password set for the user you are trying to login as. That user must also be listed in the Remote Desktop Users-list (My computer -> right click -> Properties -> Remote sessions tab -> Users-button).
4. If you have a domain at home (ie with a server that serves as a domaincontroller etc), then you need to fill out that domainname, otherwise LEAVE IT BLANK, you ONLY need to fill out the username and password, nothing else.
5. If you are on a domain and cant login, try login to "Local computer" instead of domainname, RDP might be blocked by the domainpolicies.
6. Try to do this from a computer first, not from your phone... RDC in winmo is a... "RDC Light" really.
This works fine for me, use it both at work and at home... and i work as a network-tech & admin

There must be more to this than meets the eye, because I am on a workgroup on my home PC, and I have to put the PC name in as the domain, or I can't connect.
It'll obviously do no harm to try it both ways.
Edit:
I just tried it and it works both with and without. It actually worked when I put rubbish in there that relates to absolutely nothing. I guess that means if you're not part of a domain, it doesn't matter what you put in there.
here is my problem:
I would like to connect to my laptop from local network. I can connect perfectly when I type in my IP address into the first textbox (Computer), but I can't connect when I type in my Computer Name (full computer name) into Computer. I tried port forwarding, leaving domain name empty, putting in my workgroup name as a domain, putting in my computer name as a domain, still the same. It won't connect unless I put in the IP address. I would like to do this since my workplace assigns a different IP to my laptop then I assign at home, but naturally I have the same computer name at both places, so I would like to have a permanent setting for both places. Thanks in advance.
I need some assistance on setting up VPN access to my corporate network on my X 7510. I am technologically barely savvy. I am a business user of my X 7510.
Can someone please help me in configuring my device to access my corporate VPN?
The following describes my attempts to configure the VPN settings using the standard VPN configuration available on the device:
I am using the settings given by my network team. We are using a pre-shared key and no certificates. Our corporate VPN uses CISCO ASA 5520. When I setup the VPN there is an "Advanced" option that asks for certain server IP addresses. Our network team says that this need not be used.
I am trying to connect over a GPRS network. The most frustrating part is that the IT Manager uses an iPhone and he downloaded a VPN client for 9 dollars from the Apple Store and it works beautifully !!!
But I am not able to connect and I get an error message that says that there is a problem with my user name and password. The message asks me to turn off and turn on my device to see if that fixes my problem. But it does not.
I have triple checked all the setting details with our network team and all the data are correct. My network team can monitor connection attempts and they say that they are not even able to see any connection atempts from my device.
Can somone please help me?
I Think it depends on the rom you use. If that vpn package is there.
I also have a problem with my VPN on x7510. I think I get all the settings right because it says I am connected to my corporate network. Our network administrator from the network monitoring desk actually sees me connected. But I cannot access any application on the network, not even my company's intranet homepage.
Another irritating part is that when I fire up any application that requires internet access but not VPN - like Nimbuzz, the VPN starts to connect through GPRS - very annoying. So I have now set up the VPN to disallow internet access.
rsawoseyin
Can you please share how u have setup the VPN? I am not even able to connect.
Isn't there anybody else here who can assist?
My roms have vpn capabilities, if you go to connection at the bottom it has "set up vpn" (or something like that)
