proxy settings with wifi - Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Mate 7 Marshmallow B560
I have to connect to an open wireless router with proxy.
At the first connection on this wifi, the advanced settings of wifi are not available.
If afterwards I go back in wifi settings I have access to advanced settings and I can enter the proxy and associated port BUT the Connect button is grayed out!
Same problem with secure wifi wap or another when we return in advanced settings after accessing the wifi once: the Connect button is grayed out. It must be accessed from the first wifi coonexion.
Do you have a solution ?
thank you in advance
François

Hello,

setting up proxy for my wireless....

I have a problem of setting up http proxy server for my wireless connection.
What I have done is:
1. in settings -> connections
automatically connecting to internet by using: My ISP
automatically connecting to private network by using: My Work Network.
2. In My Work Network -> proxy settings
ticks, this network connects to internet
ticks,this network use a proxy server to connect to internet.
advanced:
HTTP: proxy.proxy.proxy: 8080
3. Set my wireless connection connect to Work network.
However, after the wireless was enabled, my proxy setting alway vanished away, like I haven't setup any proxy setting at all.
If I want to try to re-set my proxy server again in My Work Network. It will vanished away when I back to setting panel.
But if I disable the wireless connection, then my proxy setting can stay there. If my wireless turned on again, my proxy setting would gone immdiately.
Do you know what's wrong?

HTC Touch Pro on school network/proxy

Hi
I'm trying to get my htc touch pro on the school's wifi network. It is such that i have to login with my own details when accessing it on my laptop, and also have to connect through a proxy controlled by the school. I can connect to the network, and input my own login user/pass but i then need to enter a domain, i then need somewhere to input the port which the network uses, where do i do this??? I have to enter proxy info into the browsr on my laptop if it helps.
cheers
please?
the info i need to enter is the following :
My own login/pass/domain (this i input straight after connecting to the network, no problems here)
Proxy information. on my laptop i input this in the connections settings of my browser, under "Lan settings" tab, this is just the proxy port and domain. Where do i put this in my touch pro's settings please?
Settings > Connections Tab > Connections Icon > Advanced Tab > Select Networks Button.
Then press the edit button under "My Work Network" then go to the Proxy Settings Tab and enter your info.
You need to make sure your WiFi network is set to "Work" and not "internet"
You should be able to connect after that.
Let me know how you get on.

If you schools proxy network allows you to do so.
Well I can connect to above mentioned using my laptop but I just can seem to do it on my HTC Touch Pro. Any idea why?
I work at a private school as an assistant IT and we do not allow phones on the network. That is probably why as most people don't want rogue devices on their network.
Fair enough, thanks for the info guys.

user confirm with connecting to internet through GPRS/EDGE

hi
is there some way to make phone asking me before connect to internet with mobile network ? (not wifi, bt, activesync) ...
example: im connected to net throught wifi ,browsing with opera but when connection is lost - phone automatically switch to edge/gprs - and i have no pre-paid data tarif , sou money runs out...
Same question
Yes, can anyone help with this one. For example, even if i'm connected to a wifi network and using the internet in opera, if I update the weather or send/receive my emails it will automatically connect to the mobile internet and download using this instead of the wireless.
The only thing I found was to turn the phone off (in comm manager, select phone to off), which forces it to download data using the wifi.
Can anybody help?
problem that you describe is not exactly what is my problem ,if i have established connection with wifi - internet is automatically go throught it,
maybe ....,have you got "The Internet" in preferences of your AP in settings > connections > Wireless lan > $essid (or under menu > edit ) ? (and you must be connected before you start using internet - opera ,updating or etc , thats for sure this will not automatically turn on and connect thrue wifi )
my question si only about "ask me before i will establish connection to the mobile internet network"
why not use NoData, you can shut down the data connection...
you mean create an empty profile in conections ? yes , sure , this working, i have it but sometime i want use this , so i must go to settings and switch to working profile and ..... its annoying, is there any other way ? in windows stile you know , "are you sure with blahblahblah" - my old W850i have this function ,every application which would like to connect run dialog "can this application connect to internet ?" and i can choose "permanently" or "ask me every time" ...somethink like this
No, I mean using a program called Nodata. I presume you are using GSM/Edge/3G data only when absolutely needed, and this program gives you the option to easily shut down any GSM related data connection (Edges, GPRS, etc)..

you know how to add wireless lan profile to connection setting ?
(this setting is only for mobile operator settings )
have you tried the Start-> Settings-> Sounds & Notifications-> Notifications Tab-> go to "Connection established" item?
this should do the trick.....
looking in the settings - there is "display message on screen" thrue which i can cancel connecting , little compromise... i think this is better resolution thank you

Unable to add protected wifi

I have problem ti add a protected wifi, i'm unable to save the configuration after add username and password: the save button still remain disabled.
Please someone can help me?
I managed to connect to both 2.4 and 5Ghz wifi at home. Which router and wifi are you using ?
Same issue here. Can connect to any normal password-protected wifi but not to Radius (802.11 eap) enabled routers as the "Connect" button stays disabled even after typing the username and password. Any help would be appreciated.
Hurraayy, sorted by myself. All you need is to change the CA certificate from "Unspecified" to "Do not Validate" and that will enable the Connect button.
Hey there, how to change the ca certificates ? I couldnt find it n the settings though. Please help!

Mobile hotspot connect, but no internet connection

Hi, I tried getting help with this on P30 Pro forum here, but no luck. I'm having problems with mobile hotspot on my Huawei P30 Pro. My notebook can see the hotspot, and can connect to it, but the phone just won't share the internet connection.
Bluetooth is turned on, and bluetooth tethering as well, and I tried both 2.4 and 5 GHz.
I tried USB tethering. Tried apps from the store. Tried addin "DUN" to APN type and always the same thing - notebook can see the hotspot, but internet is not working. Any ideas? The notebook is Asus Rog G751. Three months ago internet over hotspot was working, but since I only use hotspot when travelling, I have no idea what could have gone wrong in the mean time.

You have tried USB tethering as well as Bluetooth tethering. Have you tried the 'Portable WLAN hotspot'?
In the Settings of 'Portable WLAN hotspot', there is a 'Data limit' option. Check it and the device list, please.
Switch Airplane Mode On and Off:
This is a method that usually fixes the error and works for most of the Android Users. All the user needs to do is switch the Airplane Mode On and off. The airplane mode basically resets the Signal and Network adapter to help the connection be restarted again.
To switch the Airplane Mode On and off, all you have to do is pull the notification drawer down, and then look for an Airplane icon, tapping on it will activate it. Wait for 5 seconds, then tap on the Airplane icon again to deactivate it and wait on all the Mobile network to appear again and then turn on the data and the Hotspot of the device.
Change from Dynamic IP to Static IP:
Mobile data has a dynamic IP address, which tends to alter every time you turn it on. So sometimes setting up a static IP address will solve the connection problem. The steps are to change from Dynamic to Static IP:
Step One: Navigate to Settings in the connected device, select Wi-Fi connection and long-press the name of the Hotspot, this will bring up a Menu, this setting can also be found under Modify Network of the Wi-Fi.
Step Two: Change the IP setting from Dynamic to Static IP, and then assign an IP starting with 192.168.x.x (Replace with any number from 1 to 255). Do not change anything else from the settings, press apply and this should fix the issue.
