Connecting Nokia N8 to WPA-Enterprise (university)...

Hi
I know theres alot of threads explianing the steps for this, but it seems to be different for every network. My universtiy uses a WPA1-Enterprise network with a username = student ID & password = 12345678
It seems that there is o validty certificate ont he network (refer to screenshots please)
so can anyone please give me a step by step prcess on how to connect my N8 to the network???

If you found this post or any other psot helpful please press the green kudus star

There are some good guides online for this, some of which have screenshots of all or most of the steps. try searching for "symbian" with "eduroam" (eduroam is a wireless federation system for multiple universities, and a lot of the members have symbian setup guides). Of course you won't be using eduroam, just substitute your own network name, and you may need other settings which are different such as the certificate authority, but hopefully the examples will help.
For example this page has guides for S60v3 and S60v5. The setup on the N8 is very similar to either of these.

  • Connecting n96 to WPA Enterprise

    Has anyone been able to connect a n96 to WPA Enterprise (TKIP Encryption; PEAP; EAP-MSCHAP v2) WLAN?
    thanks.

    Not sure what u mean by Enterprise but here is what I got my wireless router set with:
    Authentication: WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK
    Encryption: TKIP
    Wireless Mode: 802.11b/g
    DTIM Period: 3
    Maximum Connection Rate: 53 Mbps
    I have mine set to a custom pass phrase key.
    When I used the WLAN scan on the handset, it found my wireless network very easy then all I had to do was select it then enter the pass phrase key. When I first started my Nokia PC Suite, my router said there was a conflict and placed my N96 with DMOZ Enabled. A quick reboot of the phone then everything working fine.
    I have a BT2700HGV router.
    Hope this is of some help to you

  • Wpa enterprise help

    I have a MacBook, that is running leopard. I am having trouble connecting to my schools wpa enterprise wireless. I am regestered to access the wireless, but am having trouble connecting. I think my problem is that i dont know how to tell the computer which domain on the wireless network. The connection i am trying to get has many domains.

    Ok, sorry for the super delayed response but I didn't have access to my laptop, then I was busy with midterms. I successfully connected manually with wpa_supplicant with this config file:
    [phil@pwned network.d]$ cat /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
    ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
    eapol_version=1
    ap_scan=1
    fast_reauth=1
    network={
    ssid="uw-secure"
    scan_ssid=1
    key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
    eap=PEAP
    identity="rofl"
    password="lolol"
    phase1="peaplabel=0"
    I then updated my uw-secure file so that it referenced the new wpa config file:
    [phil@pwned network.d]$ cat uw-secure
    CONNECTION="wireless"
    DESCRIPTION="secure uw"
    INTERFACE="wlan0"
    IP="dhcp"
    SECURITY="wpa-config"
    SCAN="YES"
    WPA_CONF="/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf"
    I then tried to connect with netcfg, and I got this:
    [phil@pwned network.d]$ sudo netcfg uw-secure
    :: uw-secure up
    wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Device or resource busy
    wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
    wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
    wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down

    any help would be appreciated.

  • Annoying behaviour on WPA Enterprise wireless LAN

    I have a PB 1.67 running OS X 10.3.9 (all patches installed)
    When I connect it to our WPA Enterprise wireless LAN, I experience the following annoying behaviour.
    Authentication may be slow (sometimes 10 to 15 minutes), but connection usually succeeds.
    Then while I am actively web browsing or retrieving email, things are ok. However if I have to leave the computer for about 3 or more minutes, it seems to decide that it should no longer be on the network and I have to disconnect and then reconnect.
    No send/rec errors show up in the info tab of network utility. IP address is there, status is active and the link is reported as 54Mb. It appears that my machine is not interested in participating on the network until it has been reconnected.
    Does anybody have any ideas on how to track down what might be happening?
    Thanks in advance.

    A follow up:
    I have observed that when I am this non-working state, my 802.1x authentication status shows idle.
    Is there a way that I can trace what is happening at the 802.1x layer?

  • Power Mac G4 won't connect to WPA Enterprise

    At the university that I work at we are updating our wireless network to use WPA Enterprise only, instead of WEP 802.1x and WPA Enterprise. The computer that I am having problems with is our test machine for writing connection documentation for the students, faculty, and staff. I can get the computer to access the network trough WEP 802.1x but not WPA Enterprise. The computer will start the connection process and then fail and not connect to the network.

    First, make sure you have at least these versions of the Airport software:
    107795- AirPort Card: When You Can Join a WPA Network
    Then read this article about set-up, including WPA Enterprise:
    107921- AirPort for Mac OS X 10.3 or later: Using different types of wireless security (WEP and WPA)
    "For a school or business, WPA Enterprise can provide each user with unique credentials. WPA Enterprise uses the same security as WPA Personal, but with the added measure of individual usernames and passwords (WPA Personal uses a shared password). Each wireless base station communicates with a RADIUS server to authenticate the user's credentials."
    "You may need the help of a network administrator to join an 802.1x network."

  • WPA Enterprise Connectivity

    Hi - I'm currently in Baton Rouge, LA and attend school at LSU. Our wireless network, lsusecure, is WPA Enterprise, which is supposed to be compatible with iPhone 2.0. The problem is, I can't seem to connect to the network. I enter my LSU username and password, which works for connecting on a computer, and it consistently says "connecting to lsusecure" but nothing ever happens. I was just wondering if I will have to enter in more information about the network rather than just using my regular login information. If anyone could help, I would greatly appreciate it, as Tech Services at LSU currently has no information on how to connect.

    Guidedbyvoip, sorry your IT Dept is no help.
    But, here at LSU, we are here to help! Hope these directions can work for you as well, instead of needing a 3rd party config util!
    ccastl1, please follow the following directions to configure your iPhone to connect to our LSUSECURE wireless network.
    Note: The device must be updated to firmware 2.0 in order to connect to lsusecure
    1. Select "Settings"
    2. Select "Wi-Fi"
    3. Make sure Wi-Fi is turned on. If the device is connected to any other network other than lsusecure (it will usually connect to lsuwireless first) you must remove that network before connecting to lsusecure.
    4. Select the network it is connected to by pressing on the blue arrow to the right of the name.
    5. Select "Forget this Network"
    6. Choose "Forget Network"
    7. Select lsusecure
    8. Enter your PAWS Username & Password and press "Join" at the bottom right of the keyboard.
    9. Accept the certificate by pressing "Accept"
    You are now connected to lsusecure!
    Please contact us directly if you have any further questions or problems!
    Thanks!

  • Connecting MBA to domain using WPA Enterprise

    Hi guys!
    I'm having "the usual" new MBA WiFi-problems, meaning my MBA keeps dropping the WiFi connection occasionally, but that's going on in another thread.
    I don't know whether this is a related problem, but I can't seem to connect the MBA to the WiFi network at the office at all. The network connection dialog tells me my connection needs WPA Enterprise credentials, but no matter what I write, I won't get connected.
    So I'll start with the basics. This works for every other device I have (PC laptop, iPhone, iPads and so on):
    Username: \\MyDomain\MyUserName
    Password: MyPassword
    But not for the MBA. For the domain/username, I've tried single \´s and /´s and just about any combination just in case this is a "Mac syntax thing" (this is my first Mac laptop), with and without the MyDomain part, lowercase, uppercase, quotation marks around the password (as I saw mentioned in some thread in the case of alphanumeric WEP, or some such), but nothing works. I don't remember the exact error message, but it has to do with the authentication server perhaps not being available.
    Apparently others have had problems with the WPA Enterprise connections as well, but could somebody just confirm that the \\MyDomain\MyUsename -syntax I'm using is indeed correct.
    Cheers,
    Kim

    Marc,
    I'm suprised that WPA works over WDS. I had thought that because WPA cycles the encryption key with each message transmission that the two Airport devices would quickly get out of sync.
    But I do respect Alan's opinion, so I'd give in to his statement that it does work, I'll be searching through the update readme's to see when it started working.
    You could always drop back to WEP encryption. Unless you have the FBI next door listening in and analysing all your network traffic, it's not going to be broken.
    WPA changes the encryption key with each wireless message, WEP doesn't. So in theory, with WEP, someone could analyse all your network traffic, looking for patterns. You can work out just how hard that is.
    If you choose an obvious password (like from a dictionary) it won't matter if you're on WPA instead of WEP, the Feds / hackers will be in in a short time.

  • 802.1X Authentication fails when connecting to WPA Enterprise using Leopard

    I'm trying to connect to an office WiFi network with my MacBook Pro which has 10.5.1 installed.
    There are instructions on how to connect using Tiger which are very simple:
    1. Enter network name
    2. Wireless Security: WPA Enterprise
    3. Enter domain credentials for username and password fields
    4. 802.1X Configuration: Automatic
    There are at least two people here using Tiger that can connect using these instructions.
    I've tried the same thing with Leopard and keep getting an error dialog stating "802.1X Authentication has failed."
    I've also tried fiddling with the 802.1X tab under "Advanced" (I know the protocol is PEAP), but no matter what I get the same error.

    Turns out I was not authorized to use the WiFi. IT got me setup and everything works now.

  • AP541N - WPA Enterprise - Failed to connect

My RADIUS server is an MS ISA 2003 and is already working fine with other devices (I have a ASA5510 also configured to use RADIUS authentication with this server). When I try to connect, I am getting the following error message on the event log of the AP541N:

    Thank you in advance for your help and have a great day,

    After investigation, I found that my ISA server was not configured properly. Here is the URL I used to configure it properly: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc779009(WS.10).aspx

  • MacBook Pro 15" Not Connecting via WPA-Enterprise

    My company just added an WPA-Enterprise based wireless router, I can connect to it fine with my iPad/iPhone, I've also connected an Android device and Windows XP & Windows 7 computers to it with no issues (the Windows boxes belong to other users on the network), but I can't seem to connect my Mac to it. It asks for credentials (like a WPA-Enterprise connection should), but then it doesn't seem to hand-off the credentials properly. Since this network is in it's early life at my company (and because my MBP is an unsupported platform), I'm not getting much help from the office (don't gripe, it's the way it is). Any ideas as to why I can't connect via my MBP when it's so easy to connect via all my other platforms?

  • Mountain Lion won't connect to WPA-Enterprise

    Configuration: Macbook Pro (8,2) running OS X 10.8.3.
    My office's "IT Guy" changed our Wifi network recently, with the surprise side effect that the Mac users are now offline, including me.  The odd thing is that my iPhone connects very nicely, as does my Windows (Bootcamp).  When I'm booted into Windows and connected, here is the information I can glean from the network manager:
    Security Type: WPA-Enterprise
    Encryption Type: TKIP
    NW Authentication Method: PEIP
    He suggested I buy a little USB stick that would connect me, but that is over my "lame-ness" limit.  The fact that the iPhone can connect but the Macbook can't is a little worrisome.  Do I have any hope, assuming that firing the IT Guy and buying the USB stick are both off limits?

    I had a similar situation happen to me today. Connecting to an Enterprise WPA2 network, and it authenticated correctly via PEAP (MSCHAPv2) but still would not show a good Connected status.
    What seemed to work was to go into Network preferences, click the Advanced button, Select TCP/IP tab, and click Renew DHCP Lease.
    Not sure why the MacBook did not connect, while the iPhone did, but this seemed to give the connection a good Connected status and the exclamation point on the WiFi network went away.
    And it's been 15 minute and the user has not come back to bug me again!

  • IPad WPA Enterprise connection

    I am setting up a bunch of iPads at work and I keep getting "Unable to Join Network" when I try to login to the WPA Enterprise network. I successfully set up about 8, but for some reason I still can't get this one going. I have tried reseting the network settings, reseting the iPad to factory condition... nothing seems to work. Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Try updating the WLAN drivers and see if it helps.

  • WPA enterprise on N9

    Hello,
    when I try to connect to my university network (WPA enterprise) with my N9, it asks me for a password for their certificate.
    It uses WPA2, TTLS PAP and a certificate. I installed the certificate chain and can view them in Settings -> Security -> Certificates.
    Do you have any idea what the password for the certificate is? My university says that there should not be any.
    I tried to select the certificate in Settings -> Security -> Certificates and to click on the bottom right button and then "Change password" but it just gives me "Keine" (none) in a small box at the top.
    Thanks in advance
    Ole
    PS: I just saw there is a Meego section, too, sorry.

    If the WiFi setup doesn't require a user certificate, you should select "None" for a certificate when defining the connection. The CA certificate(s) you installed earlier are used automatically as long as they are enabled for WiFi usage.
    Here are the settings for the network for a Nokia N82. Maybe, this will help shed some light on the issue. FYI - I could not make these settings work for my Nokia N8 as well. The IT help desk says they are unable to solve the issue.
    juhanima wrote:
    The connection dialog is supposed to show only actual user certificates to choose from, but it is a known bug in the current N9 FW that if you install something that is not a CA certificate it is taken for a user certificate by default and shown as an option in the connection dialog. The bug will be fixed in the next FW update I believe.
    I have only installed one CA certificate (the one which can be found at the link I provided above). It does not ask for any password when I install it.  When I go to Certificate Manager and try to change the password it informs that there is no password for the certificate. 
    juhanima wrote:
    On the other hand, if the connection does require a user certificate you should have received one from the network's administrator in a PKCS#12 package with a password. You need the password when installing the package and later when using the private key related to the user certificate. But it sounds like this is not the case, so just select "None".
    Hope this helps.

    So I did choose "None" as certificate. EAP Type - PEAP and EAP MSCHAPv2 as the EAP method. I could not connect to the network using these settings.  The certificate was installed at this point. If I try connecting using the certifcate it asks me for the password. So, right now, it is a problem connecting to the network. Would appreciate any help in this regard.

  • Extend WPA Enterprise

    Does anyone know if there is any way I can connect my Time Capsule to my University wireless network?
    I live right opposite my university and if I put my laptop on my window sill I can connect to the wireless, but can't connect from my desk... I was wanting to put my time capsule on my window sill, use that to connect to the Uni wireless and thus extend the connection into my room...
    Does anyone know a way to achieve this? My Uni uses WPA Enterprise encryption...
    Many thanks.
    Andrew.

    One possible option, with your existing equipment, would be to reconfigure your Mac as a "software" router by employing OS X's Internet Sharing feature. In this case you would be sharing the Mac's wireless Internet connection through its Ethernet port. Theoretically, you could then connect the TC to the Mac's Ethernet port; reconfigure the TC as a bridge, and then connect clients to the TC.
    Personally I haven't tried this to verify that it would work. Mainly because using a Mac as a software router is extremely limited as far as features that this would provide.

  • Remembering WPA Enterprise Network

    At my university, the wireless network is a WPA enterprise network. Each time I want to connect, I have to enter everything in manually. How do I get it to remember the network?

    Thank you both for your replies. I am trying iphitus ideia but am having trouble and the wiki doesn't have much info (not related to this issue at least).
