[Q] WiFi access using proxy server that requires authentication - G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I would like to be able to use my tablet with my students at school. Unfortunately the district uses a proxy server that requires authentication to access their network.
I know the ipad has these advanced wireless settings built in. Is there anyway to add this feature to my G tab? I am currently running the stock rom 1.1 3588, but I have run the market fix.

Try wifi browser login. It works at hospital using Cisco pop-up that requires clicking accept button to activate wifi on web browser

This is a different type of proxy server that requires logon to even connect to the network.

Are you saying that you can't connect to the wireless access point because of the wireless authentication method being used by the school or are you saying you're connected to the wireless access point but now the proxy authentication is blocking you?

Solution to proxy

Those who are unable to connect to wifi proxy use autoproxy app it works very well
It also supports authentication server types supported are http socks and ntlm
I use Proxydroid due to its capability of enabling automatically when connected to specifics networks. It also supports NTLM. Maybe you can give it a try too.

[Q] Forefront TMG authentication?

So my school wifi uses Forefront on their server, with manual authentication required. I have tried to connect to this using AutoProxy, but it didn't seem to work. All the iPhone people can connect, but no one on android can. When I put the proxy settings on, I get a 407 when connecting to the internet, which is proxy requires authentication. Is it possible to manually authenticate on Forefront yet?

[Q] Connecting to 802.1x EAP network

I cannot get my Evo 3D to connect to a wireless network secured with 802.1x PEAP MSCHAPv2. I know my login/password are fine. It just hangs on the "Obtaining IP address" and retries, but never connects. I used to be able to connect to the network, but it would have problems staying connected (would show it was connected, but would not transfer data). Now I can't get it to connect. I am able to connect fine using my ipod touch.
I've searched several places and have seen that not being able to connect to enterprise wireless networks occurs across many different android phones and has been a problem for many people for years.
Does anyone have any idea on how to get it to connect? I've tried the Wifi Advanced Config to change things and manually adding the network suggestions that seem to come up the most when searching this problem to no avail.

Wifi at my college campus is setup the same way, I had to use Wifi Advanced Config Editor from the Market (LINK) to correctly configure the settings for the network. The other way to do it is manually editing the wpa_supplicant.conf file in /data/misc/wifi, but it's much harder and easier to mess up.
Good luck!
Yeah, I've messed around with wifi advanced config, but haven't found any settings that work. It's weird because it used to connect. I've flashed the stock rom, my own rom based on stock, and the aosp based roms. None of them will connect.

You could try this
Open Wi-Fi Settings from Settings, Wireless & Networks If need be, write down the SSID of the 802.1x network (Case sensitive) Select Add Wi-Fi network Enter the SSID, select security 802.1x Enterprise, EAP method is PEAP, Phase 2 authentication is None, CA certificate and Client certificate are N/A, Identity is your RADIUS or Domain Authentication username, Anonymous Identity can be left blank, and Wireless password is the password to match your RADIUS or Domain Authentication password.
If you change your password you have to 'forget' the network and start again
Or you could look here

But it is for the network which is hidden. It will not be helpful if you create for visible one.
Try the "Leap WIFI free" app from Play Store
Try the "Leap WIFI free" app from Play Store. Its an app provided by a developer called "OneGuyInABasement".
I was having the same issue where I couldn't connect to the (802.1x EAP based) Wifi network at my workplace.
I configured the network through this app and now I can connect just fine.

Does FoxFi work when not rooted?

Hi all,
Does FoxFi work for WiFi tethering when NOT yet rooted, on Dinc 4? Anyone actually tested it? I'm between this and the S III, and tethering will be one of my uses. Since VZ locked S III I think I may get a Dinc 4.
Thanks for any inputs!
I have the Dinc4g, and have not rooted it just yet.
I have been trying to get FoxFi to work. My laptop will connect to FoxFi and receive an IP address via DHCP with no problem (using WPA password). I can successfully ping the phone while connected, but can *not* get out to the internet. I may be rooting sooner than later, as I too need to tether on occasion. In the mean time, I will be settling for a USB tether..
Edit: FoxFi does appear to work if you use the Proxy option (requires the FoxFi add-on). I was able to browse using FireFox after setting up the FireFox network settings to use the Proxy.

Absolutely 100% same issue here, connects, grabs an IP instantly, but it cannot browse out. The proxy-add on gives me instant web access when configured, but obviously I cannot use any other services over the proxy (like RDP, Ping, VPN, etc.) It seems almost like there's a firewall or routing issue on the phone on the NAT side of things. I can ping the gateway (192.168.43.1) but cannot route beyond it.
Can't grab IP
I'm using a Motorola Atrix HD and I can't seem to get my Nexus to grab an IP from FoxFi, even with the app.
working for me right now: FoxFi Addon, Firefox set on 'no proxy'

Android connecting to wifi authenticated proxy

So there's a WiFi connection which requries a proxy server and a username+password to connect. I connected to this WiFi, set proxy via advanced settings.
Now I started Chrome and it asked for the Username and Password, and I'm able to browse properly. But I cannot access the internet on any other app.
Is there a way to do that? At least Play store??
