[NEO] Problem with 802.1x EAP wifi network connection. - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My University uses a 802.1x EAP network and I'm having problems connecting my Xperia Neo to it. It always finds the network, but sometimes it will connect and sometimes it won't. When it doesn't connect it will just cycle through "scanning," "connecting," "disconnected." The only way I can get it to connect is to turn the wifi of and back on again and hope it works. This is my first Android phone so I'm not sure if this is a known issue or if it is specific to my device. I would really appreciate some help with this. Thanks.

Bump. Could a mod please move this to the neo forum. I don't want to double post it. Thanks.

At my university (TU Delft), they also use 802.1x. have you set up the right settings?
EAP: TTLS
Phase-2: PAP - Sometimes, PAP is switched of when you exit the edit screen, just try is again.
Sometimes the username is different from expected, i.e. my student e-mail is [email protected], but the login is [email protected] and anonymous identity is [email protected]
Have you tried asking your IT helpdesk, if available.

I know that the settings are right since it works sometimes and I followed the instructions on my school's website. My school uses MSCHAPv2, when I choose this option the next time I view the settings it is unselected also.

WIFI eap broken?

WIFI seems to perform excellent on this phone and works flawlessly at home. When at work though I have to toggle wifi on and off maybe 3 times an hour. Work uses EAP and I'm thinking this is the culprit. This is the first phone I've had this problem with. Like I said it doesn't do it at home which does not use EAP.
Anyone else experiencing anything similar? By the way I looked into the wifi region fix and didn't think it applied to this situation.
Without knowing more about how the wifi infrastructure is configured, it would be hard to pin point. There are quite a few people using EAP without issue. Can you give any more details?

I don't know what else to say. Without having access to even the location of the router I won't be able to gather much info. I work at a huge facility with router antennas sticking out of the ceiling. I most definitely won't be able to access the configuration settings of the routers either. I don't know what other info I can provide other than its EAP and I use a user name and password to log on

Logcat then you would know for sure. At least it may be some sort of indication
I have the same problem. My g2 would connect to the eap network at work fine, but my galaxy nexus does not with the same exact settings
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Mine connects just fine on the first try but sometimes the internet just won't work. I'll show like 2-3 bars and they are blue but nothing works. Have to toggle wifi to get it back.
Maybe it has to do with me moving from one room to another and the connection drops with no indication? I can not for the life of me figure out how to use log cat! And I've tried many times in the past!
does someone found a solution to this issue?
I am also looking for a solution to get connected with my office wifi network
I'm still having this problem for the record. Different kernels and roms. Only happens at work.
Eap isn't fully supported except on master aosp.

Sorry for my lack of knowledge but can you please explain more in detail what this means?
Unless someone compiles it into aosp from the master branch, you won't really have eap support. I am sure it will be in next ota.

I think it was a mistake, rather than intentional.
So no real solution for the moment...
It seems that changing some con wifi files can solve issue but i was not able to identify the good ones

Constantly having to enable and disable wifi to get my connection back is the only thing about his phone I can not stand.
Yes, even a temp solution will be great until it get fixed by Google..

Did you try EAP rather than WPA2?

[Q] WiFi Hotspot Not Working [SOLVED]

Hi Everyone,
I am facing an unusual issue. Tried searching a lot if anyone else is facing anything similar, but I guess I'm the only one.
I've been trying to use the WiFi hotspot feature since a last few days, but it doesnt work properly. When I scan for wifi networks from any other device, it shows the wifi name of my portable hotspot. On entering password and everything, it says connected. Now, when I try to access internet on the wifi device, it doesnt work. The data arrows on my One X do flash, but there is no data received at the wifi device end.
I've tried to use my portable hotspot with following devices (one at a time) till now: PS Vita (wifi only), the new iPad (iPad3, wifi only), and my sister's HP laptop. Same problem with all three devices.
I've tried following settings as well:
1) Using default SSID with no password
2) Using default SSID with password (both WEP and WPA)
3) Changing SSID to something else, with and without password protection
Internet (3G), otherwise, is working perfectly fine on my HTC One X, in fact i am able to receive emails and access internet on my phone during the wifi hotspot activated and devices connected to my phone.
I have the latest OTA update (for India) installed on my phone, i.e. 1.28.720.10
The problem was there before also (previous firmware), and after the recent OTA update, it still remains.
Can anyone help me get rid of this issue? Or maybe suggest some workarounds.
There's one thing that i'm planning to do...i saw a post on xda forum where someone has posted apk files for all preinstalled apps on HTC One X. I can try an install the wifi hotspot app again, maybe that works.
got the same problem here, have u found a solution?
Try using this: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/detail?name=wifi_tether_v3_1-beta14.apk
I am using android hd2. Hotspot is not working in sense so I use wifi tether. It works very well.
I'm here to save the day, try making a new apn with the EXACT same settings as your default one however change the name to 'Consumer Broadband'...I'm on T-Mobile UK and that's how I fixed it, had the exact same problems as you

I had exactly the same issue with my T-Mobile HTC One X - after years of successful WiFi hotspot use with my old HTC Desire.
Whilst investigating the APN setting suggestions posted here I noticed that I was actually connected to the T-Mobile Orange network and not the T-Mobile network.
I switched to plain old T-Mobile and a moment later my laptop reported internet connectivity. Go figure.
I never had that problem on the Desire but at least I have a few workarounds now... thanks for the advice everybody.

I've had the issue where if I tether another Android device to it the tethered device can't access the Play store while mine can. Everything else works fine, just no Play store access for anyone connected to my hotspot.
Has anyone encountered this issue?

Hi
i am using one x(India) ....i hv got the same problem..!
hotspot connects and laptop shows internet connection but am unable to use the internet. unable to open webpages or anyother internet activity.
is their a setting for laptop i should do ? becuase hotspot is working in other device.
help would be really appreciated.
Thanks
PS laptop is HP DV6000 series.
I do have a similar problem with hotspot.
the hotspot icon will not appear after switching it on but i can still see the hotspot from my laptop and connect to it, but there is no internet.
I have tried to rename the name to "Consumer Broadband" but it`s the same.
Do i need to delete the old VPN and make the new one?
I`m not rooted yet.
FYI: Tethering/hotspot doesn't work with IPv6 yet
I know this problems is solved, but for other that may find this helpful...I was having some similar issues. Using the hotspot, I could connect my phone to my tablet but it wasn't connecting to the internet. My problem was that I had set up an IPv6 APN on my phone and didn't realize that tethering/hotspot does not work on IPv6 yet. I switched back to the default APN and it works fine.
not working on one s with new apn

Hi Vincepg13,
I also have had this problem, but since I read your post regarding changing the APN (Access Point Names) setting to the name 'Consumer Broadband' it has allowed me to use the Wi-Fi Hotspot feature on my Branded T-Mobile UK HTC One X device. I am so grateful for your diagnostic for this situation that really was a nuisance. I feel at ease that I can finally use my device to tether with other device which have Wi-Fi Only or do not have a Mobile Data on-board. My One X has a new use that I had on a previous HTC device, so glad I can use it effectively.
Advice for others who are doing this make sure you spell the 'Consumer Broadband' correctly and I would highly recommend that you take screen shots of the current APN, so you can match all the settings correctly. Also do not delete the current APN, if you do take Sim card out of tray, restart your phone and replace the Sim card, it should automatically set up a APN for your network. Furthermore this should also work for all other UK networks. I can not confirm for other countries because I am from the United Kingdom.
Once again thank you to Vincepg13. :good:

[Q] ICS Wifi Tethering Problem

Hi guys,
i have searched far and wide and cant quite find an answer to this.
i have a Rooted SE Xperia Arc LT15i running ICS 4.0.4 with kernal 2.6.32.9 and locked bootloaded and i am unable to use my WiFi tethering.
What happens is i can turn my HotSpot on and connect to it from my laptop, but when i try and access any internet pages i do not get any data.
I have tried this on 2 ipads, a htc desire and 2 lenovo laptops and all do the same thing. (it says connected but no data gets through)
From reading online i have found this to be a known issue, although Sony Ericsson deny this and say there is no issue.
Basically i am looking for either a fix for this or a custom ROM that has this working.
Is there anything that anyone can suggest?
Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated as i really need this to be working and really dont want to have to go back to crappy GingerBread.
What does your internet settings say under Network Type?
It should read default,supl. Some people also suggest adding dun.
I had same problem and my APN type was already "default,supl".
I read somewhere that adding ",dun" could solve the matter and it worked for me.
So now my APN type is "default,supl,dun"
Edit it and try.

That's cool. You didn't say anything that I didn't already mention earlier.
my settings are: default,supl,a-gps
i have tried default,supl
also: default,supl,dun
also: default,supl,a-gps,dun
none of these made any difference, devices could connect but still no data. however phone was always able to get data on each setting.
my network carrier (Optus) tells me that those settings should be "internet" but when i do that i lose data all together

While on GB, you could use tethering?
A google search threw up this article. [Link]
yes tethering worked fine before updating
interesting article, however i am on post-paid and when speaking to optus, they told me that tethering is enabled and that there is no restrictions on my service. they were confused as to why changing the APN type to "internet" made me lose all data connection. they believe that to be correct and my current settings to be incorrect.
i was only able to get the current settings by using the 'download internet settings' feature under the xperia settings menu
anyone with any ideas?
very happy to move to a custom rom that has this feature working but dont really want to unlock my bootloader.
any suggestions?
Hi, I've got the same issue. I've posted on the Sony discussion boards but there's a noticable silence on anyone having a fix.
I've got SE Xperia Arc LT15i. Wifi tethering did work but after official Sony ICS upgrade it doesn't work. I've tried the whole range of APN suggestions above, none of them worked. Happy to use custom ROM etc but wondering if anyone does have Xperia Arc & ICS working as a wifi tether. Anyone any ideas?
See this thread for the tethering fix.
Thanks Candy[MAN] for the quick reply.
I'd previously tried all manner of APN settings without success. I've tried those listed on the link but a strange thing happens, the APN does not appear. If I change an existing APN to these settings, the APN disappears.
A key point I didn't mention was that I'm on Vodafone in the UK, and it seems the country code info might have screwed things up (MCC & MNC). Changing the MCC/MNC values doesn't allow me to create an APN, leaving them the same and using wap.cingular allows the APN to be created, but wifi tethering still doesn't work

[Q] Authentication Error Occured when connecting to Wifi on the Galaxy Note II

Authentication Error Occured when connecting to Wifi on the Galaxy Note II. Has anyone got the same issue? The Wifi was connecting till yesterday with the same authentication information. I am not sure what happened today. I went to a friends place where I had used Wifi before and it gave the same error. All other devices work just fine. I got the device on Nov 9. Not sure what to do now.
I have the same problem with Omega 8.0 ROM(4.1.2) earlier everything was working fine.
Most of the people do not notice it because it happens only with WPA-PSK & WPA-PSK2.
Try setting WEP on your router and everything will work just fine.
If you find any other solution please share it here.
Go a bit closer to your router.. it will connect.

I want to bring this back to life for only a moment if anyone cares.
I recently had this problem with my Galaxy Note 10.1 at my home. Nothing had been altered on the router, and I had not made any changes to the settings in my stock Note 10.1
First moving closer to the router is not a solution to this problem. I was an inch away from the router and no matter what I tried...restarting, turning wifi on off, re-inputting the correct password, removing apps... everything short of a factory reset. (Because that is the simplest solution when you cannot find a solution)
I also had this happen the day before to my old Samsung Vibrant (not stock, Rooted and Custom Jelly Bean Rom).
I did find a solution and I will give that in a second.
To the original poster I have to ask a question, on both of my devices I had recently installed a bunch of kid games one in particular that I think may have caused the problem was an app called Kid Mode. Did you happen to install this app too?
SOLUTION
Forget the network in the wifi settings, and then try logging in with the Wrong password! It will not log in, but will reset the device to try to actually connect.
Login with the correct password!! And like magic you will be connected once again.
If you too installed kid mode or perhaps an app that becomes the default launcher instead of whatever launcher your using this could be the cause...but I do not know why.

[Q] WiFi Tether Settings Help

So I know there are quite a few threads out there about wifi tether. The general concensus is that WiFi Tether is the best app to use, however I've found that very particular settings are needed to get this to work. While I am not a dev and have not had sucess in getting this app to work on our phone. I thought I would start a thread for those who have had success using the application in hopes that they could share their settings with the rest of us so we can take advantage of 4g as it continues to roll out. I have also tried Barnacle and not had any success either.
I found this on another thread, it was a couple pages deep so I'm reposting here, please swing over to other thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2138144&highlight=wifi+tether&page=2 #13 and give jdock a thanks for his fix. This works, but there is currently a bug in JB that only allows one tether session per boot. Once you disable wifi tether, it will not work again until you reboot the device
TY jdock
Try this:
device profile = generic ics/jb (wlan0)
setup method = netd-ndc (master)
wifi driver reload = checked
enable wifi encryption = unchecked (you can enable it later when it's working unencrypted)
enable access-control = unchecked (you can enable it later when the basics are working)
Now, when I first started with this app, my devices would connect to the AP but then give up because they couldn't get a dhcp address. I found that if I went into the 'change lan' menu and picked a different lan, that it started working (I currently use 10.10.3.0/24).
If you can't get it working, I came up with another method you may be able to use that does not use any app (I have the at&t model but it's probably the same). Basically you turn off wifi, then run a few commands (as root) that bring the wifi interface back up without disabling mobile data. It will connect to your local wireless lan as if you had enabled wifi. Then you can run a socks or http proxy and point your other device at it (easy if you're wanting to tether a pc, maybe not so easy if you're using something else). I haven't tried yet to see if it will route between the networks, which would mean you can just manually change your default gateway to your phone's wlan address and have all traffic go through it.

I hope you get some answers. I haven't been able to get this app to work on by GNex on JB 4.2.1 OR 4.2.2 using 4 different ROMs. The app doesn't seem to have been updated in many months, and I'm assuming that it won't work on JB in any form.

I'm on a JB rom now, and it does work. See the directions I posted from another thread in the OP and wifi tether will work. However, once you turn off wifi tether you will need to reboot the phone for wifi and data to function normally.
Even when Wi-Fi tether runs "with errors" it still works... for some reason my phone doesn't heat up as much when I run with errors -- probably had something to do with the Wi-Fi driver that the app reloads.

My wifi tether setup has no issues with data not working and I can turn it off and on without problems. I've used the phone for calls, texts, and internet after using wifi tether. The only issue is that you cannot turn wifi on after running tether. Once rebooted wifi will turn back on until I use tether again. I'm on a stock rooted JB rom.
Generic ics/jb Wlan0
Netd ndc master
Send Netd max client cmd checked
wifidriver reload checked
Router fix checked
Wifi fix checked
I have access control checked as well but that doesn't matter.
I've yet to be able to get this app working. I've tried these setting before and several other settings to no avail. When I try these, everything but the first item in the log and the last two say they failed. Now it does broadcast it's SSID and I can join the network, but there is no data connection.
I'm on stock Jelly Bean rom. The funny thing is, I used Wifi tether app on Lifeless and Imperium and it worked with a few different settings.
Check your version. I use WIFI Tether TrevE Mod.
Mine version is 3.2-beta2-modv5 ***synergized***
I had similar issues until I found the right version to use. I never got regular Wifi Tether to work.

By Changing some settings I can get everthing to work EXCEPT for the Nat Rules, that fails still. If someone can tell me how to fix that perhaps I can get this to work. Seems though the Nat Rules keeps my laptop from detecting the new network I made.

By Changing some settings I can get everthing to work EXCEPT for the Nat Rules, that fails still. If someone can tell me how to fix that perhaps I can get this to work. Seems though the Nat Rules keeps my laptop from detecting the new network I made.

Glad to see other people are able to contribute. I'm not a developer so not much I can do except dig around other forums and see what helps. I'm using Imperium Initiative v2.0.1 with wifi tether, with the settings in my op. Maybe there are some adjustments in imperium/lifeless that cause this to work. I will try the file posted and report back to see if I can re-enable wifi after disabling tether.
BUMP!

This one works for me with these settings:
Generic ics/jb Wlan0
Netd-Ndc (master)
Send Netd max client cmd - checked
Enable WiFi-Encryption - checked
WiFi-driver reload 2 - checked
Enable Access-Control - checked (If this is checked the first time the client connects, you have to grant it access from your phone. You'll notice a new icon on the top of your phone where all of your running program icons are. When you see it just pull down the list and select it and check your client and then hit apply)​Routing fix - checked
Hope this helps
something probably worth mentioning on this, I'm currently on Lifeless 14, and the connections optimizer was screwing with this app. I turned it off and it worked like a charm.
Not of concern to anyone AOSP/AOKP/CM/PA but for stock/lifeless/imperium(i think) this is worth looking into for some folks.

So I know there are quite a few threads out there about wifi tether. The general concensus is that WiFi Tether is the best app to use, however I've found that very particular settings are needed to get this to work. While I am not a dev and have not had sucess in getting this app to work on our phone. I thought I would start a thread for those who have had success using the application in hopes that they could share their settings with the rest of us so we can take advantage of 4g as it continues to roll out. I have also tried Barnacle and not had any success either.
I found this on another thread, it was a couple pages deep so I'm reposting here, please swing over to other thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2138144&highlight=wifi+tether&page=2 #13 and give jdock a thanks for his fix. This works, but there is currently a bug in JB that only allows one tether session per boot. Once you disable wifi tether, it will not work again until you reboot the device
TY jdock
Try this:
device profile = generic ics/jb (wlan0)
setup method = netd-ndc (master)
wifi driver reload = checked
enable wifi encryption = unchecked (you can enable it later when it's working unencrypted)
enable access-control = unchecked (you can enable it later when the basics are working)
Now, when I first started with this app, my devices would connect to the AP but then give up because they couldn't get a dhcp address. I found that if I went into the 'change lan' menu and picked a different lan, that it started working (I currently use 10.10.3.0/24).
If you can't get it working, I came up with another method you may be able to use that does not use any app (I have the at&t model but it's probably the same). Basically you turn off wifi, then run a few commands (as root) that bring the wifi interface back up without disabling mobile data. It will connect to your local wireless lan as if you had enabled wifi. Then you can run a socks or http proxy and point your other device at it (easy if you're wanting to tether a pc, maybe not so easy if you're using something else). I haven't tried yet to see if it will route between the networks, which would mean you can just manually change your default gateway to your phone's wlan address and have all traffic go through it.

These settings worked for me using the Stock Odex JB 4.1 rom. and the TrevE mod version below. I had to reboot first after installing the apk, and reload the binaries.
throttling
Well since it seems the tethering problem hasn't been remedied yet (touchy and have to restart), has anyone figured out a way to get around sprint's throttling? Unfortunately I for the life of me can't get my MSL, and also unfortunately I hate using the phone to call sprint. hrm.
May I suggest jellybeer? Tethering is built in!
