Hi there!
Maybe I'm just too stupid, but I've benn trying for weeks now to setup the network parameters for my University's Campus network and failed miserably, so could someone please explain to me how this darn "Internet Connection Manager" works?
What I need in brief:
How can I setup a proxy to use with and only with
- HTTP(S) and FTP(S)
for a WiFi-Network that
- is NOT encrypted
- does NOT require dialing a number / accessing a modem
- does NOT use a VPN
??
Whenever I try this it always results in the connection dying completely.
In other words: When I select my standard UMTS-uplink as "default connection for programs connecting automatically" and then manually establish a WiFi-connection I can reach all computers available on the campus network get ping responses and everything, but I cannot use a proxy, hence not load off-campus pages.
When I define a new connection and enter my settings (just WiFi-name and the proxy details) I can still establish a WiFi-connection, but get a ping timeout even on the access point and the intranet servers usually available through the WiFi. No SSH login, no intranet, nothing (but I do get an IP assigned & stuff)
Here's what I would like to do in theory:
=> Manually connect to a WiFi-Network called "tuwlan".
. -open network
. -no encryption
. -IP, netmask, gateway, nameserver etc provided automatically by DHCP
=> Establish a SSH2 (SecureShell) connection to our on-campus proxy server and tunnel some ports to get through the Subnets (extremely restrictive) firewall.
. -SSH including port forwarding done with PockeTTY, works like a charm
=> Use Opera Mobile to surf web pages and FTP Sites through the proxy "localhost:40081" (which is forwarded to our campus proxy server through SSH2).
=> The Proxy only knows HTTP(S) and FTP(S), so all other programs (ICQ, Skype etc) are not to use it!
This setup used to work great with older Opera versions, but they removed the proxy setting dialog in favor of directly using the ICM settings.
So now I'm stuck with Microsofts Internet Connection Manager
Can anyone please help me to get this working?
Hello guys
I have problems with my connection wifi because it uses proxy.
I configured the connection WIFI using an IP Static. It is configured in the adapter WIFI.
Then, I configured the connection "THE INTERNET AND WORK' with the same configuration, and I configure the proxy HTTP 192.168.143.53 port 80 but When I use some application that uses internet.. it doesn't work..
For example IE doesn't connect to google.com or the weather or twiter
In my home i have wifi connection without proxy and it works...
Then I tried to use the Windows Mobile Center. I connected the phone via USB and the connection WIFI was ON and it works using proxy but when I diconnected the USB it doesn't work
Pleasee I need your help!!
How can I confiured the PROXY?
I have a HTC FUZE
Having an issue using the built-in VPN. I can set up a PPTP VPN and connect, however, once connected I have no internet (no data). As soon as I disconnect, I have data. Did some searching around the web and noticed it was a know issue on Android, but wondering if others on the TF have the same issue?
When using a VPN it uses the gateway on the remote network. If that network requires a proxy server you won't have an internet connection. There are apps out there that let you set proxy settings, but thankfully Google is finally included the options natively in the 3.1 update. What I would really like them to do though is allow you to use your local gateway instead.
I have no problems using AceVPN www.acevpn.com with my TF using the builtin vpn client. My HTC Inspire also works great on there.
What is the built in VPN client you are speaking of?
I am looking for a VPN client i can use to log into my work network - I assume it doesn't have to be the same client as on my laptop?
I am going on holidays and only taking the TF - I want to be able to VPN into my work network if needed. ON the face of it I don't see how it would work since even if I VPN in the network is MS based so not sure how an Android client works on a MS based network - since I am not remoting into a machine with Windows - just VPNing into the network......so once I am in then what?
Hi,
I currently connect my Windows 10 Surface Book laptop to my phone's internet using a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8+ and PdaNet+. Both 'USB Tether' and 'WiFi Direct Hotspot' modes work great and I haven't had any issues thus far.
Today I decided to subscribe to a VPN service (Private Internet Access), downloaded PIA's app, and ran the VPN on my phone. When using 'USB Tether', I have internet on my laptop. But if I use 'WiFi Direct Hotspot', I don't have any internet connection at all and the Windows network status displays 'No internet, secured'. Below are the messages I receive in Internet Explorer 11 and Chrome and they both mention DNS. I'm not very familiar with networking, so any guidance you can give me would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Bast

Hello all,
I am trying to route all of my Android traffic through a VPN and then afterwards through a proxy.
I tried several methods to get this to work:
1. USB Tethering and Windows laptop mobile hotspot
I tried to use the connection of my laptop where I configured VPN and Proxy connection with proxifier through USB tethering and mobile hotspot on my laptop. Unfortunately my smartphone (Huawei Nova 2i) is only using the normal wifi connection, not the connection through proxifier, even though I set all system proxification within Proxifier.
2. Proxydroid
I tried to achieve this by using ProxiDroid. Unfortunately I can´t unlock the bootloader of my Huawei phone. If there is no way to do this with an unrooted phone, I would buy a new phone. It would be nice if there is an option to do this with an unrooted phone.
3. Mozilla addon
I could install an addon for mozilla to set a proxy connection there. I did not do this, because this would only work for the browser and I want it system wide.
3. OpenVPN + SandroProxy
This is the best option in my opinion, but I did not figure out how to do it properly. The idea is to use OpenVPN as a system wide VPN. All traffic would be routed through the VPN. Then in the next step I would route the traffic of OpenVPN through my proxy network.
This should work somehow I think, but I did not figure out how. Any information on how to achieve this setup would be welcome.
Best regards
