WIFI with http proxy - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

At my job we got a WIFI network, and I can connect to it (it says strong signal etc), but I can not get connected to the internet. My collegue says it is because there is a proxy on that WIFI network. I have the info about the proxy. But I totally dont find the place to put the info..
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance,
Nick

WIFI Probelm. Get connection but cant use!

Ok, I looked on the WIKI and searched the site for a solution and was unable to find one.
Here is my problem. I have wireless internet at my house. My access point works fine. My laptop and PS3 connect to with no problem at all. My Touch pro connects to it with no problem. But, after I connect to the WIFI (and verify it is connected) I cannot use it?
I tried to open opera = "site not found" try to open Skyfire = "site not found"
I cant even update my weather while connected to WIFI. So thats my problem. I can connect to WIFI but not use it!
ANY AND ALL HELP WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. Thank you in advance. iko[

You and I are not the first. I researched this (in depth) and it is found on a lot of sites, people complaining about it....However, I have yet to find an answer, that is why I came here...these guys can usually solve some pretty complex stuff!
Hopefully someone answers soon......

I have the same problem... ps3s and all. The only difference is my network shows up on my TP but it displays half the signal strength my laptop and my ps3s show.

ok i fix it....very very easy...under the "WIFI" settings there is a box to check...next to the box it says "use IEEE 802.1X Network Access Control" check this box then under that is a choice for "EAP Type" choose the "smart card" connection....also turn off your data connection via the comm manager...for some reason my TP wont let me connect to WIFI when the data communication is enabled....good luck worked for me!

When I go into Settings, the Connections tab, and click on WiFi, I don't see any check boxes at all, let alone one for "Use IEEE ...".
I must be in the wrong menu/place. Could someone please help direct me to the right place?
you'll see the check boxes once you connect to a wifi..i also have wireless internet at my house, and can connect and use my wifi just fine.
try to install some app that block`s data connections from your mobile provider ... nodata for example, you can find a link to it on xda.
set all the other connections to disabled ... and you phone connection to GSM ... not GPRS, EDGE or something else ...
set your wi-fi connection to connect to the internet ... not to work.
this worked for me for a dlink 784 router, now i`m banging my head against a 524 (again DLink) and have the same problem it connects but does not get on the internet. the problem seems to come from the TP, some settings need adjusting but i didnt figure out which one yet ...
good luck
PS: for iko, i think you have your router set on enteprise security, not personal... for personal WPA, WPA2 with a PSK, and TKIP or AES encryption, the "use IEEE 802.1X Network Access Control" is checked and greyed out, and you do not have access to it on the TP

[Q] Wifi Problem

I recently bought a Galaxy 4.0 player and so far everything is spectacular.
The only problem is that I can't connect to the wifi network at my school. Everyone else can connect with their laptops and itouchs. I try to connect and it says "obaining ip adress" and then a few seconds later will say "disabled".
Every other wifi network I've tried to connect to has worked perfectly.
Hopefully I'm not missing something obvious.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
I had the same issue. Go give IT a visit and see if there is a second network. My school has two of the same networks. One is password protecred. That is the only solution I have found so far. I hope all goes well.
it is an issue with the router ..
actually not the router either .. it may be using one of the newer encryption which is not supported

Two situations i can come up with:
- The company uses a proxy connection to connect to the internet.
- Your WiFi MAC address has to be registered to properly connect.
If possible, you should contact the company's it helpdesk to help you further.

Too me it sound like you are connectiong to a network that has a login page. Trying going to google and seeing if it redirects you to a login screen. If your not connectiong to a network with a login page then maybe the ethernet on the wireless router has been unplugged and its still broadcasting but with no internet backbone on the router.
I don't understand it all.
It's ok now. Why? No idea.
Thanks for replying.

How is a post marked solved?

Wifi problem

My University has several wifi hotspots with always the same Network, so you have wifi on the whole campus, but it seems to me if I move between two Routers or something, I loose Internet. I am still connected to wifi but without Internet. Anyone experiencing this too? Any Settings that could help? It is so annoying because you don't see that you don't have Internet Access until you try to send a whatsapp or something.
Thanks in advance.
