[Q]How to use University WPA2 Enterprise Wi-Fi?

Hello fellow XDA users,
I've tried to connect to my universities Wi-fi network but they use WPA2 Enterprise. They have a page for the Iphone on how to set up the connection, http://itdfaq.aus.edu/faq/index.php?action=artikel&cat=5&id=159&artlang=en.
However I can't seem to find the same exact settings on my Desire.
Can you help me connect to my network?
I am using Sense Froyo right now, any help is really appreciated!

Don't think you can connect to that type or network with the Desire, might be wrong though

I really hope it's not true. Because we have a high end phone & because the Iphone can do it.

Hmm here WPA2 Radius Auth. is working fine out of the box with Open Desire ... also Stock unrooted is working fine.
Radius is working fine, even VPN. As fast as with an Iphone! ;-) (a little bit faster ... no benchmark, personal feelings )
You need the Username and Password and some auth settings (can also be done with testing), thats all ... perhaps the admin uses an cert., so you have to ask for one ... but i dont think that you will need an Cert ... too much admin work for so many students ;-)

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to use WPA2. However, many universities and schools use SecureW2 or similar software for authentication. Just pay a visit to your university's helpdesk.

I have zero understanding about networking. So can you please take a look at this and help me understand: http://itdfaq.aus.edu/faq/index.php?action=artikel&cat=5&id=19&artlang=en
Thank you.

My university uses a WPA2 Enterprise secured wireless network and the good news is that I was able to connect with my stock HTC Desire. The bad news is of course that it isn't as simple as it should be.
What I did was reset my phone's so called Credential Storage and assign a new personal password to it. Then I proceeded to identify some specific Root Certificate Authority certificate needed to establish a connection between a random device and the university networks in my country. In Switzerland, I had to download the QuoVadis Root CA2 certificate and install it into the Credential Storage. After that, the phone determined after connecting to the secured network what parameters were necessary to get internet access.
I was able to simply specify my account and password and link those parameters to that network. Since then, everything works as expected.

So I need to download the .cert file and install it through the credentials storage. I will try that and report, thank you guys.

I use WPA2 Enterprise at uni all the time, and it downloaded the certificate upon first connect. Requires secure credentials to be enabled, but i think if its disabled it will prompt you at the time.

There are different Settings in your Link (first page) and the xp infos on the site. ... i thought that the following infos will do it for you.
Download the cert to sd
Add an connection (manually)
Network name: AUS_Wireless (makes sure it is typed exactly this way)
Security type: 802.1x
PEAP / EAP
Encryption type: WPA/TKIP
Leave the security key field empty
User name: b000xxxxx/g000xxxxx (without adding @aus.edu)
Enter your network password (provided by IT via email)
Now you should be able to connect.

I did it.
A weird thing happened. I connected to the network and this time I was asked to add a password for the credential. So it seems that my phone downloaded it this time and saved it.
Thank you guys for your help.

Evo on WPA2-Enterprise?

Has this worked for anyone? I haven't really searched much on this, but has anyone gotten it to work? If so, how?
Sent from my PC36100.

Yes, my university's network uses WPA2-Enterprise with 802.1x authentication.
I need to select the network, set the EAP method to PEAP, the Phase 2 authentication to MSCHAPV2, CA Certificate to unspecified and User Certificate to unspecified. Type my Identity (username), leave Anonymous Identity blank, then type my personal password.
When I connect to my network on a desktop/laptop computer, I need a specific CA certificate, but our network bypasses that for mobile devices.
I hope this can help you, there are so many different ways a network could be set up, and since I am on a private university connection, it may not be similar to your network.

Thanks a bunch! I'll give this a try tomorrow.

[Q]VPN to Cisco network

Hey everyone. Was curious if anyone has tried a VPN application on the Nexus. Not sure if stock kernel would even support it. I currently use VPN Connections on my Droid Incredible CM7, as it was only easy vpn app I found to connect to my cisco vpn network at work.

Yeah you need custom kernel and root.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App

No root or custom kernel with Columbitech! All stock client with Android 4.0! Two factor authentication, 256 bit AES encryption, FIPS 140-2 certification and session persistence!
https://market.android.com/details?...51bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5jb2x1bWJpdGVjaC5tVlBOIl0.

Wait, I thought ICS added Cisco VPN support. Why bother with rooting or Columbitech?
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3902#c1537

Cisco VPN now works, at least against the ASA5505 I'm testing against. It accepts Group Names under IPSec/L2TP/PSK. Key in your group name and password, and it should work. Have not messed with certificates yet.

Works for me too (don't know the model).
This release is all kinds of awesome

What about SSL VPN (i.e. Cisco AnyConnect)?

Cisco has Anyconnect apps in the market for SSL VPN. You have to have the corresponding mobile licenses installed in the ASA first.

Hmm...looks like it either requires root or a specific hardware vendor's ROM to work. Guess they haven't updated it to use the ICS VPN API yet.

Hmmmm today Im try connect to Cisco VPN which use Group Authentication but failed. On PC I use Cisco VPN Client version 5.0.07.0290 and can normaly connect.
I don't use certificates.
I have selected IPSec over UDP (NAT / PAT).
I have Host, Group Name, Group Password, User Name, User Password which I must write in which edit box on android?

Few of you mention to use it already supports it. I tried to setup one with L2TP/IPSec PSK. Entered the server name. Which fields do you put the group username and password in?
Thanks in advance!

I'm using the IPSec XAuth PSK setup filling the IPSec identifier with group and IPSec pre shared key with the shared password. I didn't need to use the advanced section.
I just basically went through each setup option until I hit the right combination.

That worked! Thanks. Now is there a way to get around requiring a passcode to unlock the phone?

good god that was so much easier than setting up my transformer for this. thanks everyone for the guidance. Any idea if there's a widget that will just turn a specific vpn on/off?

I'm using a Cisco IPSEC VPN concentrator. with PSK auth.
I'm able to connect but i can't route any traffic.
When i connect from my desktop i use to get a /24 IP with a default gw, when connecting from my phone all i get is a /32 ip and no default gw

[Q] How to connect to WPA/WPA2 Enterprise w/ Username?

Hey guys,
I am new to the android world as of 2 weeks ago or so.
I was just wondering, is there any way to connect to WPA/WPA2 Enterprise, but the type that asks for Username.
On the iPhone I was able to enter Username and Password which is what is required for my corporate network here, but on the android, for some reason I am not able to get this and when I select WPA/WPA2 PSK it only asks me for password, but it cannot authenticate me because I need to use my corporate Username and Password to access the network.
Please let me know if you guys can advise me on this.
Thanks in advance

when you sign onto your computer do you have a sign on and password that you have to use? It sounds like it since you are getting an authentication error.
At my office to connect to the corporate wi-fi, I have to use my domain credentials and a proxy server:
domain\username (sometimes entered as [email protected])
Password
proxy server address/port number
If it is that complex then you probably have an IT department that should be able to help you connect. You would enter this stuff on your phone in the advanced options when you try to connect to the wi-fi.

Thanks for the reply, i work for a super small company. I do log in with a password for the computer but nothing fancy. The it department is literally one guy across the country who would definitely not help me get wifi on my phone. How would i find out the proxy number and port number?

Through the router settings. Check for proxy and other options. Most routers have a default ip and password.

Open wifi may allow you to connect but require you to log into a web site via password or accepting terms and allowing your device to save a cookie for a session. That is how out wifi works. I can only use it about 15 minutes at a time before the cookie dies and I have to re log in.
