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).
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.
Hi,
At my university, after connecting to the campus wifi network, the browser instantaneously is redirected to a website where I need to log in before I can surf the web.
Is there an app for android that allows me to save my username and password so that i automatically sign in when i connect to the network?
Thanks
//I dont know how to describe it
+1 for this
can tasker do this?
if so how?
pls help me here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11344919#post11344919 post#38
thanks
it seems that the browser on my phone can remenber the user name and password automatically...
Dolphin browser has an add-on called "Dolphin Password Manager" that does this.
Yeah, the password manager rocks!
is there an alternate method? id like to use the stock browser if possible
Wondering this too
you can try easy wifi
There is Open Wifi Login on the Android Market. It will save your username and password. It will automatically log in when the wifi network is detected. I used this at my school and it worked well.
It did change is name to Wifi Web Login which is paid app.
I am wondering about this too. When at my school, I connect to a wifi, I have to open the browser and enter my username and pass, otherwise connecting to wifi is useless. I want to make it automatic with password already saved within.

Hi...!!! May be there is some problem with your setup. I had also faced such problem. Here i will guide you with a simple configuration sets for HTC VPN
Add a new VPN connection:
Step # 1:
- Tap the Home icon, tap Menu, and tap Settings.
- Tap Wireless & networks.
Step # 2: Tap VPN settings
Step # 3: Tap Add VPN
Step # 4:
-Select the type of VPN to add (PPTP, L2TP, L2TP/IPSec PSK VPN, L2TP/IPsec CRT VP)
Step # 5:
- Enter VPN details such as VPN name, VPN server, etc
(The said settings will depend on the type of VPN protocol and the respective VPN Service you want to setup on your device)
Let’s Try L2TP VPN Details:
VPN Name: Name it whatever you want, e.g. VPN 1
VPN Server: IP Address or Address would be given to your by your VPN Provider or Network Admin.
L2TP Secret: It will be given by you VPN Service Provider or Admin. It’s secret security key to ensure that we are connecting to the right mobile device and server.
Leave DNS Search Domains as it is. Save the settings and move back to home screen.
Connecting to the VPN:
- Tap the Home icon, tap Menu, and tap Settings.
- Tap Wireless & networks
- Tap VPN settings
- The VPN connections which you have just added will be displayed.
- Tap the VPN through which you want to connect.
- A dialog box will open asking for your credentials, put in the details and tap again.
- When connected to a VPN, you will see an ongoing notification in the Status bar on your phone. If you should get disconnected, you will receive a notification and an option to go back to the VPN settings.
Disconnecting from the VPN:
Simply open the notification panel at the top of the screen on your phone and tap on the VPN notification then tap again to disconnect.

I apologize for reaching you a bit late...
Actually i had also faced such kind of problem then i configure it somehow.
And i am pretty much sure that you are either entering wrong user name, password or server name. I mentioned server name / address because it is the main problem which user facing at the time of setting up the vpn on their devices. So kindly try to configure it again with the correct details or you must contact t the concern VPN Provider regarding the same.
same problem
Hello,
I have same problem on MY HD2 with CM rom. Lot of tries but with same result.
I am able to connect, receive IP from pptp server and also I can ping routers LAN IP. But that's all. I am not able to ping other address from LAN. My Vpn setting on hd2 always shows "connecting" and connection crash after 10 sec. I thought it is problem on my router, but maybe not. Behaves it similarly for you?
Hello,
I have fixed permissions to /etc/ppp/ip-up-vpn to 777 and vpn pptp works perfect for me
Sent from my HD2 using XDA App
Hi
I had wifi in my office where we could use net without any problem, now proxy server has been set up. I know all the settings but cant figure out how to enter IP Address in my HD7 (Mango) manually to start browsing.
e.g. the proxy server IP is: 192.168.0.1
Now I need to give an IP to the phone myself, say: 192.168.0.69
But the phone is automatically giving itself IP: 192.168.1.xx
This is very annoying as I am unable to sync my mail in the office.
Any help will be highly appreciated
You can edit the WiFi network settings for the particular network, by tapping and holding on it.

Only the server etc. can be edited when proxy is turned on, there is no way to edit my HD7's own IP address
