Hi, I just returned to uni and i was trying to logon to the wifi, the wifi is unsecued but when you access it on a pc a java applet pops up asking to input uni login etc. my x10 seems to block this applet, is their anyway around this so i can access the wifi.
Thanks
University wifi is always secured and uses wpa2 enterprice and uses PEAP protocola which is supported by andriod 1.6 but sony ericsson firmwear seems to lock PEAP option, to put it straight u have to root your device ( use one click expoid root ) and then use wifi helper to have acess to PEAP . i was in same situation as you so had to root it. will take u 5 min to do root and get acess, doesnt get any easier
I go to the Erasmus uni, there we have eduroam. I have to log in with my Erna account on a site that starts up the first time when accessing the browser. This didn't work with the standard browser, but it did with dolphin. But I had to put on use secure credentials in settings security first.

Hi everybody. Now that I have rooted my mini I could install Barnacle wifi tethering for connecting to my laptop. But after long trials I am still not able to connect my phone with my laptop.
Can anybody with prior experience help me in this regard
For wired tethering I use Easytether which works great.
I havent tryed yet, but try setting the WLAN interface to "tiwlan0" and/or try skipping wpa_supplicant

Wonderful. It is connected with your suggestions. Many thanks.

Thanks, I also got this to work. What I wonder now is if it is possible to have security for this tether. When we choose skip wpa_supplicant then the security is disabled and it is an open network. When traveling and visiting public places I would be somewhat uncomfortable to have this open network. Barnacle does provide the WEP security option, but in order for this app to work with the x10 mini we need to choose skip wpa_supplicant which opens up the network to all. Any ideas?
I had to change WAN-setting & disable security too to even find the WiFi network.
However, when I connect it doesn't work. I see the in Barnacle "traffic"-pane that my computer sends requests when I try to load a webpage in the browser. But the down-traffic won't increase. Anyone know the next step in troubleshooting?
i left all the settings stock except turned on skip wpa supplicant. mine works great i ran ping- t all night and only lost 15 packs 0% loss, which is less loss than my friends cable internet.
when i first got it working i was using a mix of settings and i had to hit associate every 5 min or my laptop would stop having access to the internet but still remain connected to the network. so i just reinstalled it and it works great now.
This feature is one of the main reason why i bought an android device.
Edit:
after a few more days of pissing about with barnacle i realized that it cuts out when ever the phone is not being charged and falls a sleep and as long as i keep the phone awake its fine. the solution i came to was to open music player and play a song with the volume off and that keeps the phone from going into sleep mode. i know there's supposed to be a setting to stop wifi from turning off while in sleep but i have a branded rom and it doesn't appear i have the option. hope this helps someone.
There are two versions out there, 0.4.2 and 0.5.0. What version do you guys run?
anyone share the settings for barnacle wifi tethering. Its not working in my rooted x10 mini.

You can disable wifi sleeping on Settings -> Wireless controls -> Wi-fi settings. Push menu button and choose 'Advance'

I have the exact same problem and have tried everything listed here Anyone find a solution??
It works for me now using Barnacle Wifi Tether 0.6.7 and a SE X10 mini 2.1. Had the same problem before. Now my settings are:
Wireless Encryption: Wep Enabled (with hex password code)
Channel: 6
"Skip wpa_supplicant" - unchecked
Wan: tiwlan0
Hi all.
BarnacleWifi worked fine for two weeks but until I setup new android vertion 2.1.1.A.0.6 he doesn't.
Anyone try it with this one ?
Regards,
Devilo.
Edit: I can see the network on windows7 but when I try to connect, it freeze on "Identification" and I never have ip adress
DHCP doesn't work.
Same here :-(.
It finaly works on my mini with 2.1.1.A.0.6 firmware.
On MiniCM-1.0.0-Alpha2, Froyo Cyanogen 6.1 port for the mini "Rom"
Dont forget skip WPA supplicant.
Regards
Devilo.
On X10 mini Barnacle works without skip wpa suplicant! After a few trys and som Observation I found the Problem. Every baconinginterval the adhoc Network have a other MAC. I try to set a fix BSSID in Barnacle but now i can't find the Network so i undo it.
After some Trys i found a workaround:
1. Start Barnacle
2. Press Associate
3. Try to connect with your Computer
4. After entering password, your Computer try to connect, press 1 time again Associate
My Settings are:
WEP Encyrpting: Enabled
Skip wpa_supplicant: Disabled
Auto Associate: Disabled
WAN: rmnet0
still not conneting
It's still not working on my x10mp 2.1.1.A.0.6 firmware. My PC (Debian or Win7 have the same problem) still doesn't connect.
Barnacle on phone is showing no errors. PC is finding the wireless network but can't connect. Looks like it does not get an answer from phone (no IP address assigned).
I surely have tried all the advices from this forum and any google search gave me.
Same problem here guys - this was the reason for rooting my x10 mini

same here..
And I haven't found any solutions yet ... thankful for any suggestions ...

Kick for this thread, looking for a solution...
I've got my home router (Linksys WRT160Nv2) set up for Remote Management So I can access it through the internet. I found however that I cant access it through any of the android browsers and I cant figure out why. The security cert pops up and I accept it, takes me to the login page, put in my info but the login box just pops back up. Is there something in the browser stopping it from working because it works from other computers.
Yeah happened to me. On axuras rom. I had to unlock the security to get wifi.
I got it good on jk6. Working great.

I have recently purchased an LG Vortex (from what I read is Verizon Wireless's Optimus One) that comes with the Android 2.2 operating system installed. I have looked into rooting my phone with z4root and have successfully temporarily rooted my phone. I would rather keep my phone unrooted, but if it is absolutely necessary I will root it permanently with z4root.
My question is this: How can I connect to my company wifi and use apps that require wifi?
I can successfully connect to my corporate wifi through the 802.1x EAP protocol. The problem comes when trying to access any of the apps that require internet (I am forcing Verizon's data plan not to be used--using wifi only due to 150MB limit on my data to save $$ per month). None of my apps seem to work--internet browser, Market, Gmail, Google Calendar, etc...
On my company pc I know that within internet explorer the box is checked that says "Use automatic configuration script" and gives an "Address" that is in the format of "..../proxy.pac" It looks like my work uses a proxy for things to connect to the internet. I have no such place to put this information in my LG Vortex. I downloaded an app that seemed promising called "Proxy Settings" which will allow me to enter in the following Hostname and Port. When I tried to enter the "..../proxy.pac" as the hostname it gave me an error stating "The hostname you typed is not valid."
Is there an app or something that will allow me to use my apps when connecting to my corporate wifi? Is it a proxy setting thing or a VPN thing? I am not sure. I am open to any and every idea so that I can use my phone's online features while connected to my company's wifi.
FYI - I have friends that have iPod touches and they are able to connect to the internet with some apps internet browsing and downloading apps, but they have a similar issue of not being able to use all of their apps as well. I believe they were able to put the "..../proxy.pac" address in their devices somewhere.
Thanks!
I am a new member on this forum but I decided to reply because I have a question and a possible solution for you:
-solution:try to download the *.pac file.You will see that it is probably a script that defines your actual proxy's ip.So you could try and figure out which is your actual proxy's ip.Then use this ip for the proxy-app. (However I am afraid that only browser will connect properly,not every app)
-and now the question:how did you manage to connect to the network?I have trouble connecting because the wifi settings menu doesn't seem to help.
I try to connect to a 802.1x EAP network and I have installed the required certificates but I don't know what to fill to username,password fiels.

Hello XDA devlopers,
I'm trying to connect to a WPA EAP network in my school, or a 802.1x EAP network as my mini pro regocnizes it.
when trying to connect it asks me for a password/password consisting of 8 letters/numbers.
i have tried using the same methood we do for our laptops we use at our school wich is a Unique SchoolID and a password. but that doesn't work since it want whatever i write to match the first line of password.
However, when just writing something random like 8 number 1 digits it goes on and asks for a connection type were i can choose from EAP, WPA and etc where i chose EAP because thats what im guessing our school uses (i'm no network technichan so i dont know anything about wireless networks at all, otherwise i probably wouldn't post here for help lol.)
But when i have choosed the connection type it tries to connect for like half a second and then stops and goes back to sleeping mode or searching for new potentional wi-fi/wireless networks.
Please note that my phone is a Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro device with default 2.1 sony ericsson stock rom and no root, aswell as the standard app to connect to wi-fi / wireless networks. (Settings > Wifi & Mobile networks > Wi-Fi)
If i have written this in the wrong thread or have written something not understandable please PM me and i will try to correct the text.
Regards,
Joel

I would suggest looking up on your school's website to see if there are instructions for setting up the internet on your mobile device. I would assume they have instructions for different platforms.
I struggled to get it working at my school in which i had to get a certificate installed and blah blah blah. I can't remember if i got it working or not, it's been a while. I remember hitting a problem with WPA2 authentication on the mini pro. Hopefully you can get it working.

Thank you,ctalcant
But I've talked with our computer technichan team, but they said that they dont care and wont give support to anything else than our laptops, i also checked our schools website page and there were no instructions on how to connect, not even with our computers. only found a page telling us to visist the computer technichans if we experienced trouble.
So sadly, they wont support or help me with this. Any other suggestions?
Edit: i went there again and had a talk with a diffrent person, who seemed to have an android phone aswell, but he said that a certificate is needed to connect, atleast for the laptops in our school, but sadly he couldn't give it out because it was aginst their rules to do so. He said that he used a non-protected guest wi-fi that is aviable for our school, but to connect that you need a username and password aswell, and he couldn't give me one unless i was a guest at the school. And what iv'e heard about the guest one is that its suckey anyway so if there is any other solution i would be very happy.
Edit 2:
I have been using ubuntu on my school laptop before and got the wi-fi working without installing any certificate, but then i just selected to use EAP-PK2 something when editing settings on how to connect to the wifi with the ubuntu laptop and then filling the boxes with my schoolID login credentials and got it working.
And Android is based on linux so there should be some workaround for this?
Very Thankful for any answers about this.

I dont think it is possible for me to set up and proxy for the schools network.
They only have blocked one port and i think thats port 22 or something for security reasons, no other pages are blocked afaik.
Im starting to need the wi-fi access at school badly, i think i could pay whoever came up with a workaround or solution that works lol.
i'll post a fix tommorrow, i am currently trying it myself and it seems to work quite good!
please make a backup before you try.
it worked fine on mine though
802.1x working again!
hope it works for you!
you will loose draft N ability unfortunately
so only 54 mbit

i will try this as soon as i root my phone again, because currently is unrooted and using default stock rom.
still waiting for the CM7 for mini pro to become 100% stable for everyday use. I use my phone alot and with a rebooting phone or non working phone is a bad idea lol
Also make sure to download telekom global root cert.
Its not installed by default
Its listed on the webpage
Pki.dfn.de
Its often used for 802 connections

Even is an old thread I see no point in opening a new one.
So, I bought android (4.2.2) mini pc and created a pc out of it, but I am having trouble with connecting to students network cause it has 802.1x authentication, and you login with faculty username and password.
On windows we use Securew2 software and that solves problems, but when connecting on android I cant find any options to select EAP or TTLS authentication, anyone has a clue?

I run JB 4.1.2 on my x10mini and it just asks for username and password on 802.1x networks and then it connects. Not tested with a 'closed' network like a university setup, but with the public hotspots from my provider it just works.

Ah, that's a different animal altogether. I hope for you there's someone with a good answer to that, or try the playstore to see if there's anything available that implements that functionality.

There is an app Securew2 for android, but i think it only simplyfies Wifi connection...either way I cant try it cause it doesnt support my university credentials yet..
Hi frnds,
I am having prob. with my college wifi. THe college wifi is 802.1 EAP secured network. So after connecting to the wifi. When i open the browser the browser first open the university's login page where i have to enter my username and pass.
And after clicking on login then i can open any site using the browser only.
But when i open any other app like market it does not connect it shows not network connection.
So the problem i think is that before connecting to the net, the wifi first verify the user identity. That can be done only in browser but entering details but not in case if market.
Hence does anybody know a method by which i can verify the wifi for the whole phone and hence can use any app on it.
Many college WiFi networks are configured not to allow second party apps (for example Android Market) to exchange data via that netowork. U would have to ask your network supervisor on your college if the "blocking second party apps" is true.
The proof, that the WiFi is working correctly is, that u can open any other site via the phone browser.
If u are willing only previews of apps in the market, try to connect to the market site via the phone net browser :]
