is it possible for O2 Atom to change from 802.11 B to *802.11 G ? please anyone can help me with this one ? please please .. .thanks
802.11b to 802.11g
It is hardware issue so you can not change it but do not wory about. 802.11b will be enough. You will not understand the difference.
Regards
Boss ... Although My work place have Wifi build in ... but i cant access it ... The network they are using is 802.11 B/G .... so was wondering if it's possible to to change my Atom's 802.11B to G ... then thing about my work place is ... i cant even find the network using my Atom ... >.<
Maybe your workplace's Wi-Fi Access Point is set to 802.11G mode only? You can ask the network administrator who set up the access point to check it up, if it's set to auto b + g mode, then your atom will be able to connect, no doubt..
i cant change which network they wanna set ... so i can only change my phone to 802.11G if possible ... that's the problem =D

Hey Cupid,
Add these two key into your registry and then soft-reset :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\TNETWLN1\PARMS: dot11SupportedRateMask=1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\TNETWLN1\PARMS: dot11SupportedRateMaskG=8
You can read more here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=38898
Tried that on Ipaq rw6828 and I can connect to my wireless router set to Wifi G (WPA protected).
hi eastmushu,
I have tried the method u suggested, but it doesn't seems to work on my 6828. Can you verify your findings again? thanks
Hi Kush,
What I did or rather what I found out was you have to perfrom two soft resets before it will work... Don't know why but have noticed it on two different 6828s...
After that was able to log into Pocket Messenger and IE...
Some Problems I have with this 'hack' are
1 - if the hardware is 802.11b only it will NEVER do G no matter what, software
cant change it.
Doing some research it looks like the value
dot11SupportedRateMask
defines the Desired Supported Rate Set
with the possible values of
"0",,"1,2 Mbps"
"1",,"1,2,5.5,11 Mbps"
"2",,"1,2,5.5,11,22 Mbps"
"3",,"Up to 18Mbps"
"4",,"Up to 24Mbps"
"5",,"Up to 36Mbps"
"6",,"Up to 48Mbps"
"7",,"Up to 54Mbps"
"8",,"All"
So I assume
dot11SupportedRateMask=1 is setting B speeds to 11mpbs
and
dot11SupportedRateMaskG=8 is saying 802.11G can do all speeds.
None of this however says anything about activating 802.11g on B devices.
Perhaps simply defining the parameters for G speeds enables G hardware to use
it.. perhaps not..
The second issue with the Atom is the Hardware
The registry settings for my atom's wireless chip are
HKLM\Comm\CF8381PN1
Not TNETWLN1 so for a start any atom users would need to modify key values
relative to their own hardware.
For what it is worth I will try this and post back..
And the results are in.. Did not work, made no difference at all.
Can not connect to a 'G' only network (can see it as available.. can't connect)..
Can connect to a mixed mode network with these keys but performance
was unchanged in otherwords it really did nothing.
WIFI ....../B change to......./G
U can change into wifii 802...../G by using SK tools/tune up/. I already changed it......
where I can get it.. sir..
I struggled for several days to get my 8525 (Cingular 1.34) to authenticate either PEAP or LEAP against my work network. I never did figure out how to get LEAP to work, but I did get PEAP going. I've added a new section to the wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry covering how to disable checking of the authentication server's certificate.
We didn't pay the $$$$ for a commercial certificate, so on all our XP clients we uncheck the "Validate server certificate" option....no such beastie on Cingular 1.34 at least. Turns out there's a reg key one can add to disable the validation:
Code:
\HKLM\Comm\EAP\Extension\25\ValidateServerCert=dword:00000000
does the trick.
Hope this helps someone else trying to get PEAP to work with their WiFi!
Note also that connectivity to our Cisco APs seem to work MUCH better when I slide the WiFi PowerManagement slider over to performance. My cheapo D-Link router works fine at any setting, but the Ciscos seem to drop packets right and left with power management happening.

Humm sounds interesting, but I am not sure that I understood everything.
First, are you sure that you are talking about PEAP auth with certs and not just EAP-TLS? The registry path refers to ...\EAP\...
Secondly, why not just add your CA as trusted CA on your PPC? It seems to be the way to go in your case.

I'm sure only in that my IT guy swears we only support PEAP and he could see my authentication failing until I added the switch and now he sees me authenticating PEAP successfully.

I agreed, but I think IT wants to leave their options open for future certificates open. If I hadn't been successful with this, that was going to be my next try.

Create the same registry key- it wasn't there in WM5 either. I can confirm that this works on my Tilt/Kaiser running WM6.

I guess I missed the "add" part. Anyways, it connects but is VERY unreliable. Whenever I turn on the device it makes me type in my password even though it is stored or just doesnt work. If it doesn't work I go into the settings and a lot of times the "Use IEEE 802.1x" is unchecked or the EAP type is changed to smart card. Sometimes even still it doesn't work until I reboot or disable and reenable wifi. Even then it doesn't always work. Anyone else having similiar problems?

Not sure you're really fighting the PEAP certificate problem then. Note also that our Cisco APs don't like the power management setting on anything other than high performance.

Thanks for the reply! So under WLAN - Power Mode - Best Performance? That is what I have it on. Pretty weird... I am using it right next to my laptop which has an "excellent" connection. My Hermes shows 2-3 bars. Any other ideas?
Hi
I ve bought a HTC Tornado(TMobile SDA-unlocked)with Windows Mobile 5 smartphone to take advantage of our WiFi network. I am having problems setting up my WiFi connection and i cant find a solution..please help me...
When using my laptop wifi connect I set up the following
My network name (SSIDD) - Utech-Students
Network Authentication OPEN
Data Encryption WEP
key is automatically provided (i tick this option)
Enable IEEE 802.1x authentication for this network
EAP Type as PEAP.
Then under configuration of PEAP I uncheck Validate Server
Certificate and authentication method selected as "Secured password (EAP-MSCHAP v2) and "enable fast reconnect" is also ticked.
With these settings it works perfectly well in laptop.
But with these settings made in the SDA phone it gives the following error msgs ;
"The server certificate is issued by an unknown authority" and
"Cannot log on to the wireless network. This network requires a personal certificate to positively identify you."
I NEED HELP DESPERATELY ...
Please note that i am not a computer savy...so please help me to
understand the things what i am supposed to do.
Awaiting to hear from you ...thanking you in advance

I am. I added the key on both a Dash running stock WM5 and an 8525 running Schap's 4.31 ROM and it only works on the Dash - same wifi config on both connecting to the same network.
Now after days of reading i found a solution for all the devices that couldnt connect with the modified reg-key(HKLM/COMM/EAP/EXT....ValidateServerCert) to a wpa and eap-mschap secured wlan.
To enable the eap-options you have to install the securew2 client. Once you had installed you can choose for authentication method one of the securew2 has provided(this is where you see PEAP and 802.1X) in the WLAN Connections. Just select the TTLS method and disable the outer authentication and the certificate validation in the options. Now you can select EAP and MS-chapv2 in the authentication tab of the securew2 client. and at least you can sign in here your name,password and domain. You can also set an Profile with your settings in the Securew2 client.
This Solution has worked for me on a HTC Touch Cruise(XDA-Orbit-2).
Hello,
I have the problem of logging in a secured network, and I found the solution
here of adding the registry value. I am working with WM 6.1.
Maybe my question is a stupid, but I don't understand what exactly I have
to add - A key named "ValidateServerCert", and to set it's default value to 0,
or to create a Value named "ValidateServerCert" onder the key "25", make it
DWORD type, and give it the value of 0...
What should I add?
Thanks!
Hello this is a sirious problem I think,
I wasnt able to get this going...
I tried the reg key method (but I am not sure if I did this correct)
and I installed the w2secure client (didnt work either)
so further explanation is required(PLEASE)
sorry if this post doesnt sound very polite but I did my best ^^
btw. I dont own a Hermes but a Touch Diamond with WinMo 6.1
Richard,
Great call. Spent a couple of hours trying to configure my touch pro to stop asking for a personal certificate with no joy. Upping power save mode to 'best performance' allowed it to authenticate straight away. Once this was done, dropped it to best battery and everything seems to work fine (famous last words of course).
Hello all. I have a cingular 8125 and found the same problem with the wifi access. I am new to total commander and I understand the process, however I do not know how to create the registry listed above to correct the problem. Any help with the program would be great, thanks.
Dear guys could some one try to explain me how configure my TC500(S200)??
i just update from WM6 but I don't know how configure to WiFi.
Thanks
Ema

Yes Idid it more then one times,but when start always appear init_tray. can not be opened..So sad...Some other possibility?
Hi, I'm new to the Atom, WM6 and all the other mobile stuff that I will now have to learn, so pardon me for (potentially) asking stupid questions.
I've had all the other problems, everyone seems to have with WiFi, like constant attempts to connect, etc. However, the latest one is that the "Wireless LAN" seems to have completely disapeared. The CommManager (HTC) will turn on the WiFi-Radio but that's all that happens. No connection, no nothing.
Upon going to menu -> Wireless LAN -> nothing happens.
Upon going to Settings -> Connections -> Networks Cards -> I only get the network card page, the wireless networks page has disappeared.
Any suggestions welcome ...

Hey
I have an Ameo; running AP4 and radio version 1.50
I can turn on wireless and it says wireless is available however thats it, i cant connect to anything nor use MSN or anything like that.
So i played around with it. I seen within some setting (network cards i think) that i had 2 wireless showing saying 'available' so i clicked connect and it said 'connecting' and then goes back to avilable and after a few attempts, unavilable.
My wifi is not secured, anyone can connect. Any help appreciated
Now as for the AP4 question when i turn my ameo around, the screen layout switches how can i turn the automated switch off ?
thanks

Start, settings, connections, wifi, network adaptors tab.
Under 'My network card connects to' ensure it says 'The Internet' and not 'Work'.
I flashed the AP4 ROM on T-Mobile Ameo. There is no chance to start Wireless. There is only a WLAN-Ícon but no WIFI-Icon
but without this the AP4 Rom is very great...

Hi Baby1111,
This ist not the solution for most of the Wifi-Problems i think. In my case the Symbol wich looks like WIFI ist named "Network Card". If I change to Internet instead of work nothing changes. WIFI does not turn on.
I saw the name of device in Bootloader ist ATHE400
Here my bootloader Information in the red bar:
ATHE400
IPL-v1.00
ATHE400 MFG
SPL-v3.50.OliNex
maybe this can be a problem, before i think ist was ATHE100. Also the TOMTOM 6 requests a new activation so somthing seems to be changed with the IMEI or so.
by reading the forum there if found 3 Cases for solution:
1. this one Change from Work to Internet ->> No scuccess in my situation
2. disable the automatic screen orientation ->> no complete Instruction how to do this or i can not understand it.
3. Sent the MAC-Adress of the device to Senior users like OLIPRO and get a file to change. ->> I dont know if they are glad to get much support requests.
I hope there will be a fix wich i can do by myself without disturbing the gurus at there great work.

@ Bit117 and Baby111
I can assist you if your WiFi did not properly configure during the flashing of AP4 instead of Olipro and cmonex (Olinex) who we'd like to have working on higher issues.
Send me a PM with your original MAC address and an e-mail address where I can send you a custom file configured to your device. I will also send detailed step-by-step instructions to fix your device. You will need to use MTTY so if you don't have that, find it in the wiki.
Regards,
Raskell
p.s. - If you do not know your original MAC address, check inside your battery door. On some models it is listed there (not the same as IMEI). Others have reported that flashing back to the modified AP3 gives a working Wifi. If this is so for you, get your MAC address from there and reflash to AP4, sending me the MAC info and we'll get you working!

Yes, this is obviously not a fix for those whose wifi will not turn on.
But I've come across a few people who think their wifi is not working because this setting is wrong, and when I installed AP4 it set it to 'Work' by default.

I would re-flash the 1.50 or change to 1.57 radio, if I were you.
I’ve tried out all wireless with 1.57 radio in mine after having AP4,
all reception excellent. Very impressed particularly on the Bluetooth range.
where can i get 1.57 my mate?
