Question about the VPN connection - Motorola Droid RAZR

Hello everyone.
I'm regularly using a VPN connection on my RAZR. The problem is, I cannot make the connection to "remember" the password. Every time I want to connect to the VPN, I have to re-enter my password. I can't believe the phone does not have an option to remember it.
Is there any solution for this?
Any helps would be appreciated!

Afaik, every android gingerbread phone I have used in the past is like this (and I've had many phones).
It was not until ICS that it had the option to remember the password.

WiFi issue - it isn't working

Hi!
I have problem with my P500.
I connected to my wifi router without any problem, but internet doesn't work for me.
Facebook aplication works fine - i can share posts and talk with friends, but when i want login to Android Market or enter to webpage - is't not working.
WTF?
Wake up.
~~
The issue is still disturbing me...
I can open 1, 2 or 3 pages, but no more. It's still loading, and loading... In this time youtube/android market/messenger works fine...
I REALLY NEED HELP.
what rom and kernel? is this an issue with your rom? maybe u need to configure something under wireless&networks (I've seen people having issues like this because of there access point name)
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA Premium App
Rom: default, 2.2.1. kernel 2.6.32.9
I set manually IP etc. but no effect.
Try changing the channel on the router
Yay, i don't know pass and username to my Edimax EW7206APg. Now it's set on 11.
Wifi on PC and notebook works fine.
OMG, this is the basic thing. You should know this...

wow it didn't work because you didn't put your password in, ask your network administrator (or am guessing one of your parents) for it. also sometimes they are left on the router themselves I know Virgin UK leaves the password for there routers on the router itself
its usally username - admin, password - admin
or username - admin, password - password
try these....
im having troouble with dolphin hd and it always says unable to load page...but dolphin mini works fine....

[Q] WiFi Hotspot Issues running ATT based ROMs

I have an issue when running ATT based ROMs like Aura and Alien.
When I activate the Hotspot on my Phone, the PC connects and gets an IP, but no Internet. While running ORFR based ROMs, everything works!
Any suggestions to fix my issue? Keeping in mind that when I flash ATT based ROMs, I flash ATT radio too.
Tried on Kholks Kernel and faux123 Kernel, the Phone is purchased from OrangeUK.
Hi
Did you ever find a resolution to this issue?
I'm currently experiencing this issue with Alien-4 and I'm pretty certain I was using it without any issues on stock 4.5.91 ROM.
I searched through some threads and thought it might have been an APN issue but I've tried the bundled APNs with the Alien-4 ROM as well as deleting them and adding new ones with the settings from ausdroid. I've tried it both on Telstra and Optus and cannot seem to work it out.
Assuming you are using a rom that allows it, try using this to help rule whether it's an APN or an app problem:
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
I have used this program to great success in the past.

Hi xfinrodx
That little app works although due to the stock kernel included with Alien-4 I stuck with a completely open connection. I figure it's the stock motorola mobile hotspot app that's the issue, did you have any suggestions on how to resolve this issue? Would reloading the hotspot app fix this?
Thanks in advance
I'm pretty well sure I used encryption with this app and Alien... Just take another quick peek at the settings page in the app to be sure if you don't mind. :-/ It always gives the "access control" warning to me, but hasn't inhibited my encryption. Near as I can tell that relates more to ipconfig type stuff.
As for using the stock application... I would probably first go into CWM, "fix permissions," clear cache and dalvik then try again. If that fails, I would attempt to remove the stock tether app through titanium backup and reinstall from some .apk if I could find one. Failing these, I would reflash.
Hopefully you can work it out and post your method for others to find!

Thanks again for your reply xfinrodx
I'm currently inbetween jobs so I have a bit more time to look into it. What I think the issue for me is, is that the wireless hotspot assigns itself as the dns server to the device connecting to it. Now I just need to somehow specify a dns to assign or force the client to use a specific dns
Thanks

What OS are you trying to tether? Self-specifying dns addresses is commonly done and generally very easy. I personally recommend google's dns. 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 if memory serves me... Anyway, I think google has a write up for you on their dns page that is better than I could throw together in a reasonable amount of time!
Do try this as a troubleshooting step, but don't be too surprised when it doesn't help. I have a sneaking suspicion the problem lies elsewhere, though I know not exactly where. Hopefully this is it!

I'm trying to tether my Asus TF101 running 3.2.1 as well as a mate's ipad2. Neither worked. I've looked high and low on my TF101 and haven't been able to locate the DNS settings.
If you go to wifi settings-[menu button]-advanced there should be something in there... You might need to manually specify everything from there, but it's a shot. I'm away from my tablet at the moment or I'd look.

[Q] wifi connection problem

I have a Samsung galaxy 10.1 wifi only. I am having problem connecting to my wifi at home., I enter the password but all it keeps saying its scanning. What do I do?
Have you made any modifacations to your tab? ..custom roms or other stuff? maybe a dumb question but you are entering your password correctly?
Sent from my G Tab 10.1 using Tapatalk
The tablet is brand new. I am entering everything correctly. its not my signal or the modem because I have my laptop receiving signal from it. It even accepts the password.

Go to settings and wireless then long press on the network name and select forget. Now try to connect again

I did that too.
you must Recconect , my friend have the same problem and he fix it.
I did everything and it just won't stop saying scanning. It accepts the password but it won't give me internet connection.
Something is amiss here. Some protocol the tab doesn't recognize? Don't know what that would be, but who knows?
I'd try disabling any and all security, encryption on my wireless router/modem or find one not secured a and try it there. If it still wont connect I would suspect hardware failure.

[Q] Wifi Network Disabled

I am staying in a hotel abroad and have purchased some logon details for the hotel's wireless internet for my stay. However, whilst I can connect with my laptop, my S3 lists the network as 'disabled'. Wifi is on, and not set to sleep or anything like that. When I click on the network, it (very) briefly says 'saved' and then returns to 'disabled'. I have not even had the chance to enter my logon credentials, so that cannot be the problem. I have also tried to 'forget' the network and re-connect, but there is still no option to enter my credentials and connect on my S3.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Try changing your phone's mac address to your laptop's mac address.
Most services use this to authenticate devices.

How can I do this? Thanks
Sorry to bump this, but does anyone have any idea or solutions to solve this 'wifi network disabled' problem? It works on my PC, but not on my S3.
Thanks
Sorry for the delayed reply

If that doesn't work you could ask them for a new code and see if that will work with your phone. Or ask to see their network support staff (if the network is managed in-house).

Internet working with browser, but not with apps

Hi Guys,
I have 3 android devices (xperia s, htc one x and a galaxy s3) connected to a wifi network. This is kind of a protected network and there is a firewall involved. Also the devices are getting IP via DHCP. The problem is that i am able to access web site via browser but when i try from the application, its showing i don't have internet connection. There is no proxy configured in this network. There is an IP filtering in the router which filters the IPs starting with a particular series. But the web site and the application which i am trying to use are supposed to use this IP series.
I've come across issues with internet connections on mobile devices. This might not work for you, but it has worked for me in the past.
I assume your devices detect all of the settings you need automatically?
If so, you may need to manually change some things.
1) Check your IP and make sure it's set right for your network
2) Check your DNS settings. Sometimes the default ones don't work properly.
Try:
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
These are from Google's OpenDNS and have served me well in the past.
If all else fails, check the network itself.
Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply.. but as i mentioned earlier, the device is getting IP and other stuffs via DHCP. I am not allowed to configure something statically. It has to come via DHCP. But the interesting fact is that an iPAD in the same network is able to get internet in both browser as well as applications.
Hey, if you need to get settings via DHCP then you should talk to your network admin for the settings

I am getting all the settings perfectly.. hope haven't read my first post.. i am able to browse via browser.. the problem is with the apps.. that y am confused about.. i know this kind of a problem may arise when we have a proxy configured in the network.. but we dont have a proxy in the network.. in fact an ipad hooked up to the same network works totally fine..
Did you get your apps working?
Nope..still facing the same issue.. internet is available in browser. but not in the apps..
There is no problem with your phone. I am sure that changing your router will fix this problem. Try another router with your internet connection and tell me if that worked.
Press thanks if I helped you!
We have tried that as well.. The situation got little worse with the new router. Now Internet is not working with ipad as well. But it's working in browser for both ipad and android. Another thing I have observed is that the Web pages load blazing fast in a windows and blackberry but the same site loads very slow in android and ios. As I mentioned earlier, the network is having a high security with firewall and encryption. Is there any limitations for android and ios to work with these kind of highly secure network??

I think that the firewall is the main culprit. Try disabling the firewall if you can.

Ya.. even i feel the same... but its a secure network and firewall is a vital part.. so we cant disable it.. is there any known limitations for android to work with firewall or networks with these kind of setup.
Just mess with WiFi settings

Hi - I was experiencing this on a Galaxy Nexus with no SIM card only connected to WiFi - on a WiFi router that used to work.
The solution was to
1. Open up DHCP settings on the phone (Settings -> WiFi -> My Network -> Advanced)
2. Manually set them to something that's wrong.
3. Save.
4. Set DHCP back to what it was.
5. Save.
May not work for you, but for me, after about 30 seconds the app store and other apps started working again without having to do a factory reset or doing anything to my router/network.
Let me know if this helped!
