Hi everyone,
I've been using Dioxda's optimized WM6.1 ROMs lately, but so far I've had no luck with WPA2 - I can select WPA and WPA-PSK, and can connect to WPA2 networks with a simple passkey just fine, but the more complicated network at my university is causing problems... I need a ROM in which you can actually select WPA2 as the encryption mode when setting up a new WiFi network.
Any tips for a ROM that's fast (lots of free RAM) and has good WPA2 support?
-edit- Tried a few WM6.5 ROMs, and none of them are allowing WPA2 properly ... Does nobody use WPA2?

WPA2 driver don't work good on WM6.5. Try My litle green or other WM6.1 ROMs posted here.
Ah, and here I thought newer = better support
I've found the DLL file someone posted for 6.0/6.1 a few pages back and will try it out later today - if that doesn't work I'll try your little green
Thanks for the tip.
Hi

I am using bikerbiti 23052 rom on my home network which is in :
wpa2 personal key AES mixed bgn mode channell 11 width 40 mhz .
It doesn't show the wpa2 option (only wpa) but it connects to my wpa2 network and works just fine.

All the ROMs I've tried connected to my home WPA2-PSK network just fine as well, just didn't show WPA2 as an encryption mode. The problem was the network at my uni, which is WPA2-AES encrypted with an additional required certificate and separate credentials for each user. Needs a special TTLS-security suite etc., and requires the user to be able to select WPA2-AES as the encryption type.
Solved it with this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469666
Worked fine with the dioxda2 WM6.1 ROM I was using. Downloading my E-Mails over the Uni Wi-Fi right now

Thanks for the tip, managed to get it working on my ROM of choice though ...
The best ROM I'd found during last two years is Manila Neon by Varunavincent - it really keeps WPA2-PSK AES connection to the router.
The next (a little slower) is another his ROM with WPA2 support (do not remember its name - 2 builds earlier, before Manila Blue).

Hi,
I've been using WM5 on my Prophet for ages with no probs at all.
Decided to finally take the plunge and upgrade to WM6 & HardSPL'd my device.
I've tried a few different roms & all have installed successfully etc apart from one recurring problem - WiFi connections only connect 50% of the time.
The WiFi seems to turn on but doesnt automatically connect to the AP. If you turn WiFi on & off it connects OK. When the device doesnt automatically connect, the AP is showing as 'Available' in "Wireless Connections" and you can force a connection by clicking on the connection & clicking connect.
This is a bit of a pain as I quite like using Korands rom, but I may downgrade to WM5.
Any help?
Cheers
fast and acurate..

What kind of encryption do you use, WEP, WPA, WPA2...?
hey all,
since I use WM6 Roms on my prophet I experienced excactly the same problems! Thanks racingclub to face the prob! I tried so many different ROMs an all have the same issue.
I use a basic WEP128Bit hex encryption. My current ROM is ProphetTouchXB.
Any solution so far?
I have the same issues, also with WEP 128 bit encryption. The issue only seem to happen with WEP encryption and I tried most recent ROM's. All have the same issue. I have not found a solution anywhere
WEP cannot auto reconnect.
i have reported this long time ago.
no solution now
hihi

I use the wep setting
my setting in the router
1. shared,
2. wep
3. xxxxxxxxxx ( password)
4. done
P.S.
1. Micro WM6 ( 80MB)
2. I don't mean after soft-reset, I mean power button on and off, it connects automatically for me.
Is there any wm6 flavour which supports a wpa2 protocol? I ma having problems with my SMC security settings. I can only set it to wep (which is not supported with my mac, and a mix of wpa/wpa2 which is found by my prophet but can not connect to it, even doing it the manual way.
THANKS
i am using shadow "my edition" 2 and have wpa2 encryption at home. working together perfectly
Thanks for the answer. I am now using a 6.1 by mastsogo which works great and wpa works flawlesly. I downgraded radio to 2.19 version.
cheers
Yesterday I installed the WM6.5 Build 23047. I works perfect accept mij wifi-connection with my conceptronics.
Normally I use WPA2, but that doesnt seem to work on the WM65. So I configured the Conceptronic to WPA-PSK, but still WM65 won't connect.
The connection itself becomes visable, but stays 'unavailable' whatever settings I change on the WM65 for this connection.
Can someone please help me?? (Yes, I tried WeFI, but hee see no spot at all)
Thanks for your reaction

You do disconnect activesync before connect Wefi.
becoz the input la.
Hi!
I use Loox 720 with WM 2003SE. I know there isn't any WM5.0 or higher ROM available which is compatible with WPA2-PSK encryption for this device. So is anywhere software or a little trick to make WPA2 working on WM2003SE?
The program like WiFi Monster would be adequate if it was for WM2k3. Hitchhiker doesn't have WPA2, only WPA...
Thanks in advance!
*bump*
I have a 720 too and I am also interested in this!!!
The included Wlan stack is pretty unusable - cannot connect to most WPA/WPA2 access points. Only WEP works quite well.
If you have your own AP try to connect in WEP mode - should be no problem, try also WPA - should work. I have problems only with WPA2... It is a pity, this is very useful device, but with old OS.
Hey!
I have been disconnected for a month...
Still there isn't fix for the problem with wifi using WPA2 on Xperia's after upgrade to ICS? I've tried to change algorithm to only AES or only TKIP, and when I do it, it works for a while, but later it starts the connecting/disconnecting bucle.
i have poor peformance on wpa 2 but when using no security my wifi works great. FXP 128 CM9

As you can read on the topic title, I talk about WPA2. With no security or WEP (don't know about WPA) it works perfect, but obviously have a router without security or WEP nowadays is dumb.

im talking about wpa 2 too.. using it at home. When using train i can use public free wifi. but this works waaay better than wpa 2 which is unstable
Hi, I'm on ICS (official) and didn't see any performance issue with WPA2 between ICS & GB.
I use my phone @ home & work. Both routers are using WPA2, AES only and there is no problem at all.
Sent from my MT15a using Tapatalk
I had issues with my wifi too after switching to ICS (any Rom!).
Disabling Encryption (WEP / WPA didnt matter) helped a bit,
but there were still wifi dropouts.
But meanwhile i know what the Problem was!
ICS doesn´t like my old Router (Alice DSL Router)...
no idea why, GB worked, ICS not
Now i switched to another Router (Fritzbox 7240).
All Wifi Problems gone
i have speedport w503v (t-home router, they give it for free to use their services), any form of wpa2 is rejected when using ICS, no probs at all in GB.
i switched to wpa (tkip) and have no prob at all now.
so for users that have probs with wifi on ICS and dont want to leave ur wifi unprotected u have 2 solutions:
1: buy new router (be sure its tested and works with our phones on ICS)
2. switch wifi protection to WPA (TKIP) or (AES)--aes not tested by me-- it hope it works
3. stay in GB 2.3
no progress wifi related.
I have two routers too. In a TP-Link it works and in the one provided by ISP (Observa Telecom) it doesn't (neither WPA2 nor WPA).
Prolly you are wondering why I don't use the TP-Link (W8961ND) then? Because it is a ****ing ****!!! It has bad perfomance and doesn't even show basic information like connected clients...
similar case :
Mt15i ICS + router wpa/2:
router hitron: works ok
router conceptronic: continuously authenticating
Gingerbread: both routers working ok
The problem is ICS, or SONY ICS.
