I have a Sony XPERIA x10 and a Rogers Dream in the past.
I have noticed on both of these phones that if I tried to connect to my network with a ROM of Android < 2.2 (Eclair, Donut..), it simply wouldn't connect. I could type in the password and click the OK button or whatever, but then it would just say "Remembered" and if I clicked the network name again and hit Connect it just wouldn't do anything.
Mine is a DD-WRTv24 Linksys WRT54G router secured with WPA Personal.
On other routers it works fine - even other dd-wrt routers.
Perhaps I will try upgrading/downgrading the firmware on my router if all else fails.
Any ideas are appreciated.
Hi all,
I need to share my Internet connection from my HTC TyTn II with WM6.1 running WMWiFiRouter (which support the creation of adhoc wifi networks only, AFAIK) to my tablet iMiTo AM801 8" running Android Gingerbread 2.3.1.
I tried to substitute the wpa_supplicat file as indicated in several threads in this forum (thanks to exist!) after rooting my device, but none of them seems to work for me, and all of them break the connection also to non-adhoc wifi network, so I reverted to the original.
In fact, when turning WiFi ON the device becomes unresponsive and after some seconds a message appears saying "Sorry!, Application Settings (in process com.android.settings) is not responding", which I force to close.
Is there anyone that has been able to enable adhoc wifi on Android 2.3.1?
I hope so!
Thanks in advance for your help.
Any one?
Please!
help me connect to eduroam pls
when i try to connect it says : "scanning ...."then "connecting ...." then "saved, secured with 802.1x"
Sensation XE
fw 3.25
rom : ARHD 6.2.1
ICS
same for me Sony
seems to be an android bug
-scanning-connecting-searching---- "disabled, secured with 802.1x eap"
this is my loop, and no connection at all
Same here :-(
iPhone users can connect fine to my company's 802.1x wifi network, but i can't from my android phones (SE Xperia X10 on Gingerbread & HTC Sensation on ICS)
A google search shows a lot of users having issue in connecting to 802.1x networks since Froyo (Android 2.2). There are worksrounds suggested, but they don't appear to work for me.
It seems the issue still exists in ICS as well :-(
Try LEAP WiFi free (it is in the market) or try to find one app for your comapny.
Leap WiFi works fine for me on IBM EAP APs.
Delete your old saved setting, before creating a new with Leap WiFi.

Must be a bug in CM9, I'm having the same issue. Thinking about going back to CM7

Finally, I've defeated my CiSCO EAP-FAST corporate wifi network and now all our Android devices are able to connect to it.
The walkaround I've performed in order to gain access to this kind of networks from an Android device are easiest that you can imagine.
I'am a BES, MDM and Lotus Administrator, and btw and iOS lover.
Many of my colleages are Android users, and their claim is always the same.
Why iOS and BB users are able to connect to the corporate wireless network by chosing only WPA2 Enterprise and only needs the network SSID and their Active Directory Credentials?
2 years has passed since I heard this claim from my colleagues for the first time , and until yesterday, all of them remained disconnected even when they had ICS on their devices.
This things made me think about the Android and iOS system differences, and the way the OS developer thinks.
A wireless chipSet is a wireless chipset, and it not depends of the OS installed in a mobile device to have a better compatibility.( not like servers or routers ).
When you setup a Corporate wifi network on iPhone, basically you command the system to use some protocols to connect to, included in the WPA2 Enterprise cabinet. the system check all of the until find the right one to connect.
Android doesn't have the same protocols defined in his WPA2 Enterprise system definitions, so if you try to connect to it by using the main Android interface, you will have an authentication error.
There's a Wifi Config Editor in the Google Play Store you can use to "activate" the secondary CISCO Protocols when you are setting up a EAP wifi connection.
It's name is Wifi Config Advanced Editor.
Firstable you have to setup your wireless network manually as seemful as you can to your "official" corporate wifi parameters.
Save it.
Go to the WCE and edit the parameters of the network you have created in the previous step.
There are 3 or 4 series of settings you should activate in order to force the Android device to use them as a way to connect (the main site I think you want to visit is Enterprise Configuration, but don't forget to check all the parameters to change them if needed.
As a suggestion, even if you have a WPA2 EAP-FAST Cipher, try LEAP in your setup.
It worked for me as a charm.
When you finished to edit the config, go to the main Android wifi controller, and force to connect to this network.
DO NOT Edit the network again with the Android wifi interface.
Tested on Samsung Galaxy 1, 2 and Note mobile devices and on a Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet.
Gingerbread, Honeycomb and ICS.
May the force be with you, my young Padawan

Try the "Leap WIFI free" app from Play Store
Try the "Leap WIFI free" app from Play Store. Its an app provided by a developer called "OneGuyInABasement".
I was having the same issue where I couldn't connect to the (802.1x EAP based) Wifi network at my workplace.
I configured the network through this app and now I can connect just fine.
Leap WIFI free not working with JB 4.2.1
I have tried using Leap WIFI free on my Asus TF700T running the latest OTA update to JB (4.2.1).
While the tool seems to create a network profile, it does not even connect.
Trying to connect to a wifi network that shows up as Cisco EAP-FAST when I connect via my windows laptop
I've tried creating the profile using the built in wifi config editor as well, unfortunately it defaults to PEAP and while it connects and gets an IP address I do not have actual network access (e.g. web browsing fails).
The wifi ACE tool has not been updated to support JB yet either.
Any other suggestions?
Several days ago I bought new Xperia P. Since begining I found to unstable wifi connection in home network. Previous Samsung W without any problems.
This issue come irregulary in time and without any context to signal strenght. When trying to find out, I only found there is a problem to obtain IP address from router. On router log there is MAC of phone visible an noted as associated or ressociated, regard the situation. All widget I tryed show status connected and original phone aplication was in Limitated connection with IP addres made internal without router. Seem to be matter of obtaining or renewing IP address. Router is set up to DHCP and wireless is encrypted to WPA-PSK. There was no change in other encryption nor fully opened wireless with no protection or encrypting. Still the same situation. Does anybody similiar problem or any adwise how to fix it up ?

Hi,
I use my hostel lan to access internet from my notebook using a regular cat5e cable using a proxy address.
Problem is, when i use my laptop as a wifi hotspot, my phone reads the signals, but is unable to avail the internet facilities.
I have a motorola defy plus running gingerbread, unrooted.
Is it because of the proxy? Can anyone suggest anything to overcome this issue?
Thanks in advance
