As a point of reference, I am using a rooted HTC G2 running GingerVillain 1.5.
I have been trying to manually connect to my University's wifi (UT of Arlington if it's any help) The Xpress connect app they recommend does not work as it does not detect the network or something or rather. I don't want to mess with it anymore as it would be better to have the settings OS based than app based unless there is no other way.
So, I tried to set it up manually according to what my computer had set up: PEAP with MSCHAPV2. Android only offered "none specified" for user or CA certificates. It acts like it is going to connect, then promptly disconnects.
I think my problem is similar to this topic which was resolved: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=576407
However, whenever I pull wpa_supplicant.conf and change anything, Wi-Fi won't start on the phone. Is there something else I need to do to get a modified one to work? I'll probably still have to play with some settings to get it to actually work with my university.
Ok, I found this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=692254 which fixes the wifi crash when rebooting after modifying wpa_supplicant.conf I'll have to see if I can get the network to work next time I can go to school.
Hi All,
I am a first time Android user (Galaxy S II),switched over from Symbian.
The apps on my phone which require data connection such as Gtalk, Gmail , Android Market, etc are not able to connect via Wifi.
But the stock phone browser works fine on wifi, no problems over there,I am able to surf the web. But when it comes to apps, they do not connect/sync over wifi.
If I disable wifi and use GPRS, apps connect to the internet, and sync in the background. But as soon as I enable wifi apps stop syncing / connectingot he internet.
GPRS plans are expensive and slow compared to my wifi. I want to use wifi to connect the apps also.
How do I do that, is there a setting which I need to enable.
I have to use a proxy server to connect to the wifi netwok, is that the reason the apps are not working. If yes, what is the solution, please help ??????
i have never had this happen but recently my wifi has stopped working all together it just keeps scanning constantly
I had the same problem as the OP. Fixed by setting my time and date manually.

This *could* very plausibly be the problem.
I know on iPhones, our university's network requires proxy settings. You put in proxy settings centrally, but only some software like safari will work. Most apps jus don't realize they need to go through the proxy.
I'd imagine it'd be more or less the same for android apps.
Have you tried to connect with static IP?
setup the correct time and date and time zone. I noticed that my mod got wrong the cities/GMT by +1h.

I have an account using the ca cert. on wifi.
I tried to set it up successfully in CM rom (old phone) but now I can't do the same in my Atrix 2.
I did install the cert but it doesn't show in the wifi network setting page (select wifi ssid->modify setting). Anyone has the same issue?
I've seen all manner of Wifi issues with Android, but most "specialty" configs can hbe helped with WiFiAce. Hope it helps
I have two devices Xperia E (DS) - (Xboost room, or something like that -> ICS) and Galaxy Tab 4 (new v4.4.2 [Kitkat?]) and in home network (WiFi) i cant download anything from google services like Google Play (updates) and from Google Drive (pics - but lol i can preview them, also i can search for apps in google play). Google Drive works without issues on my PC in same network.
Also i saw one of webpages dont load on Tab4 (its not google.com xD)
On Tab4 i got "error 495" but unlike most of time uncle google couldnt help at all
what i tried:
-change encryption type on wifi (its not this),
-turning off DDoS protection on wifi router (nope)
- delete cache, data, account on both devices (nope) and more something like this one
-Date/time stuff
Its my router issue - i guess right?
but what it can be? locked UPnP?
to unlock UPnP i need to reset router but i kinda dont want to do it (forgot password for it - messed a bit with too hard password) but i can connect to 2nd router with home network (WiFi) settings
everything works on 4G for sure on both devices.
@edit: VPNs on 80 and 53 ports dont help at all too @edit2: ok via hotspot shield it works fine but not via OpenVPN+vpnbook (dunno why a year ago it worked fine at least on PC xD) but still it would be awesome to get fix

Hi there,
I am trying to use the always on VPN feature without luck.
I already learned that you have to configure a PKI based VPN, otherwise the always on option won´t be available.
I configured my PKI properly and created a new VPN profile on the Z3. I am using L2TP/IPsec RSA, with the server IP address DNS servers properly configured. Imported the certificates (CA, user and server) and everything is working. I can manually connect and navigate. Traffic goes through the VPN, as supposed.
Things get weird when I choose the always on option. It asks me which profile to use and it tries to connect... but it doesn´t work. According to my server logs, it keeps trying but it times out in the middle of the negotiation.
Do you guys have any idea of what is going on? Does any1 successfully configured the always on option? Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
