Of course, you have to follow the istructions provided by your admin (the school in your case).
Then, creating the new network, you can select 802.1x protection security in the list you should see.

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.
i have an error on my mobile Samsung S2 it happened recently today
when i try to enable the portable wifi or USB tethering i got this error message ( security policy restricts use of internet sharing )
I have many friends more than 5 in my work which also face same problem by today all of us is working on the official room 2.3.5 from Samsung
Kindly any one can help me in this how to disable this security policy also i tried to rest my phone to factory default i didn't work
you need to talk to the computer system administrator to change router settings to allow the phones to contain to the router.
Policy comes from the router not the phone.
You mean the GSM provider or what becuase i use this with the 3G network
No, i am system admin at work as he controls access the router, at home you would have to adjust the settings on your router.
provider has nothing to do with using wifi or usb tethering as data comes through network settings on your phone which is not restricted.
what do you mean by router , as i am using GPRS from my network operator
when i try to turn my mobile to access point i got this message , kindly advise what the relation between this and router , because i am not connected to any router as a network in my company

I think, you may fix this problem already. But I will answer for someone else who may have the same problem.
"Security policy restricts use of internet sharing" error happens because you use Exchange Active Sync mailbox. The Exchange Active Sync will use and pull the Security Policies from your Microsoft Exchange Server. And on your Exchange Server has set some Client Access policy - Exchange Active Sync Mailbox Policies to block the internet sharing.
So, you have to ask your Exchange Admin to remove the block policies.
My company has a guest Wifi network and a regular employee wifi network that requires a password. I was wondering if I were to access the guest wifi network using my own personal smartphone, what kind of privacy would I have? Would my company be able to see everything that I am doing or even who I am?
Are there any easy apps to encrypt myself while on it? I see SSH Tunnel and Connectbot, but I don't have a server.

Yeah, any time your traffic goes through something they can see it. However if the traffic it is encrypted then they can't see the data, just where it is going to.
I think there are services now where you can vpn from your phone. If you do that then the company can only see that you have a vpn up. All the traffic will be hidden inside the vpn tunnel.
I will say most of the time companies don't seem to care what is going on in guest networks. Of course I don't know what your company polices are.
My school has a 802.1x wifi that can only be accessed with a user id and password (no WEP key) i can see the network but it shows it as having WEP security instead of the 802.1x it is
I created my own profile making it 802.1x security however after it was made it just showed that it was out of range even though it was well in range. i even downloaded advanced configuration editor from the app store and played with the settings but it was still a no go..
has anyone had any similar problems or a possible solution for me??
Maybe you need to install a certificate before you can connect? Take a look at the help pages on your university's wifi setup page or something, it might guide you for that.
there's an app called "Full Wifi" by sharkmob which has EAP support and my daughter used that at her college, but she doesn't have a GSIII....
Does your university have instructions for different operating systems? If they have a linux section, that should let you know what you need. In my case it's 802.1x EAP with TTLS for EAP method and PAP for the phase 2 authentication.
I am using a Nexus 7 running jelly bean 4.2. I have a vpn that I use which is working much better than 4.1 (no longer disconnects all the time). I am trying to use the Always-on VPN but I can't seem to get it to work. Perhaps I am mis-understanding the functionality.
Currently I am in the VPN section in settings. I see my VPN connection and it says Connected. If I click the options menus I see Help and Always-on VPN. When I click on Always-on VPN, it asks me to select a VPN profile to always remain connected to. The only option I get is None, which is selected.
Why am I not able to select the VPN connection that I have created (the one it's currently connected to)? Am I missing a step?
Thanks in advance. :good:
Same problem here...
I'm having the same issue. I wish Google would detail these things more thoroughly. YouTube is wonderful for this sort of thing. And gee they own it. Google, please use your resources.
I tried always on using a PPTP connection and wasn't given the option to select an always on vpn. Then I tried a L2TP/IPSec connection and was able to select it once I set the server address to an IP and provided a numeric DNS server. However, it doesn't connect. I keep getting an error about no network connection even though my wifi is connected. I have to set auto-on to none before I can use the vpn. Also, it still won't let me select the PPTP connection as always on even after providing the numeric server and DNS.
I'm using a nexus 7 and 4.2.

Same here!!!!!
Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7
Can anyone call to 855-83-NEXUS ? (I'm outside of USA)
In help article, it says:
Set up an always-on VPN
Some VPNs support an always-on mode that won't permit network traffic if the VPN connection stops working. This can be useful, for example, if you're moving between unsecured public Wi-Fi access points and want to make sure that your VPN connection remains active and secure. If an always-on VPN connection is lost, you'll receive a notification and won't be able to send or receive data until the connection is restablished.
Before switching a VPN network to always-on mode:
Get detailed setup instructions from your administrator.
Add the VPN.
Connect to the network and, after providing your username and password, check Save account information. This is required for always-on VPNs.
See above for instructions for adding and connecting to a VPN.
After you've set up the network and saved your account information:
From the VPN screen, choose Menu > Always-on VPN.
Select the VPN.
Touch OK.
A permanent notification keeps you informed of the always-on VPN's status.

I can't seem to get it to work either.. Iv'e set up an L2TP/IPSEC VPN with a preshared key up, and it connects fine. Everything works but the "always-on" feature...
Iv'e also tried to set it up with my wan ip instead of FQDN, + set one of my internal DNS servers ip in the config, but still always-on wont work.
I still just get the error in the buttom of the screen saying, that it requires both a server ip and a dns server. I've done that, so what the hell does it mean?..
Really hope i can get this feature up and running!...
EDIT:
I had configured the ip address in the name field instead of the server field
It still doesn't work though.. I can without errors set my VPN connection to be always on. But the only thing that happens is that the notification says connecting, and i lose my internet connection. And it just stays that way..

Same thing here. Has anyone managed to connect successfully?
Same here. Nexus4... Any tip? If I connect manualy then it works... Damn google
Has a solution to this been found? Or does anyone know if anyone (CM etc) is planning on releasing a fix?

This still doesn't work for me using any of my Nexus devices. I've tried about 5 different VPN of different types.
I just noticed the same issue today on the 4/22 nightly of Cyanogenmod 4.2.2 for the i727 skyrocket. I've only tried with a pptp VPN.
Has someone solved the problem? It still says missing server and DNS IP...
Maybe they'll fix it in key lime pie?
Having looked at CYAN-682 again, it might not include the bug we are experiencing. https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-682
CYAN-682 describes seeing the "always on VPN connecting" message, which I have never seen since I'm not able to select a VPN at all.
The instructions say some VPNs support always on... What feature of a VPN server would allow this??
Will Never Work
PPTP is not supported as the encryption is too weak. Google deemed this so. Sorry!
grrrr google really pee me off with this stuff. i as the user should be able to decide what is secure enough and if i must have a lock on the device if i have a vpn installed.
dear google, i am not an f ing apple user so please dont treat me like one!!!
Got it working....
I figured out how to get "always on VPN" working by trying out...
Here is my conclusion:
1.) PPTP -> Not selectable,
2.) L2TP/IPSec PSK -> Not working,
3.) L2TP/IPSec RSA -> Not working,
4.) IPSec Xauth PSK -> Not tried, but i think it should work
5.) IPSec Xauth RSA -> WORKING:laugh:
6.) IPSec Hybrid RSA -> Not tried, but i think should work
I tried that using racoon ike...

I was also able to get it to work using IPSec Xauth RSA. Thanks!
You have to enter the IP addresses of the vpn server and the DNS server. Apparently only this mode of connection is supported on android.
