E61: WPA Authentication Failure

I have been using WLAN on my Nokia E61 with my Zyxel 660HW-T1 for a few days, but today I repeatedly got WPA Authentication Errors. Checking the logs showed these failed connections, but showed that 0KB had been sent and received (and there was no sign of the WLAN symbol during these failed connections). How can WPA authentication fail with no data transmitted? The E61 seems to remember the first failure then say there is a WPA authentication failure without bothering to try to connect. To test this I changed the SSID of the WLAN on the Zyxel and the E61, and it connected. I changed back to the old SSID and it failed to connect until later in the day. I have the latest firmware on the E61 (3.0633.09.04). It seems that Nokia have a lot more work to do on WLAN to make it reliable.
Also, this connection failure seemed to remove the WLAN form the Access Point Groups and disabled the automatic checking of email. Why, there is no need to do this!?

Tell us some more.

N5800 university WLAN: WPA authenticatiomn failure

Hello, I have seen posts with similar problems but not exacttly this one so here goes:
I want to connect my Nokia5800XM to my university network and it seems like the solution they have opted for is to have one setup-network and one "real" WLAN.
The setup Access Point directs you to a web page where you provide your authentication details and then the phone MAC-address is saved. Since the MAC-address now is recognized it should now be possible to surf through the "real" WLAN since there is MAC-filtering.
However, when I first connect to the real WLAN I get:
"Default EAP settings saved. Advanced security settings can be edited in security settings of access point"
That is fair enough but when the connection attempt proceeds I get:
"WLAN:Unable to connect. WPA authentication failure"
That is quite odd since you are not supposed to provide any credentials once registered with your MAC and others iPhone seems to work fine so is this problem familiar?
Does the N5800 WLAN capabilities have some limitations that the iPhone has not?

have a look at this topic from Saataja:

N80 "WLAN: WPA authentication failed"

I have a N80 at 4.0623.0.41 (26/07/2006, RM-92, Nokia N80 63.01) branded (TIM-Italy). No further firmware upgrades are available (on 12-09-2007)
I would like to connect to my 802.1x academic network that uses certificate
I installed the certificate set up its reliability.
Then, I followed the indications found in this forum for EAP-PEAP setting up
Data Bearer: Wlan
Network status: Public
Network Mode: Infrastructure
Security mode: 802.1x
Security Settings:
WPA/WPA2: EAP
EAP Plug In Settings:
1. EAP-PEAP
(other options disabled)
EAP-PEAP:
Personal Certificate: Not Defined
Authority Certificate: IC root CA
Username in use: User Defined
Username: *****
Realm in use: From certificate
Realm: [blank]
Allow PEAPv0: Yes
Allow PEAPv1: NO
Allow PEAPv2: NO
EAPs:
1:EAP-MSCHAPv2
EAP-MSCHAPv2:
Username: [entered correctly]
Prompt password: Yes
Password: [Entered correctly]
When I try to connect with these settings I get the following error message:
" WLAN: WPA authentication failed "
I tried also other unsuccessful variations such
Allow PEAPv0: Yes
Allow PEAPv1: YES
Allow PEAPv2: YES)
The system admistrators suggested that the problem could be the certificate that is home-made and maybe it is not completely recognized by Symbian v9.1. But they don’t know how to fix the problem
Indeed I found two certificates from my institution (Root and Server), apparently identical, but the Root one is recognized while the other no.
Do you know what I should check inside the certificate to gain insights about the reasons of the authentication failure?
Is there any symbian network utility that could help to understand which step block the authentication?
I will appreciate any suggestion
Thank you in advance

WPA and EAP works great with the N80 - dont worry
I have tested and runs alot og Nokia Phones with WiFi and EAP etc.
I currently uses a N80 fw 4.0707.0.7, and there are a v5 fw also.
I sugguest you get the 4.07
You subject informs about WPA but you have set your Security mode: 802.1x
Change this to:
Security mode: WPA/WPA2
Then you should be good.
Also verify the status: hidden/public this is important
If you can see the SSID in the WLAN Wiz then its public SSID.
Try clearing the username in the certificate setup/PEAP
also try different comination of DOMAIN/USERNAME, DOMAIN\USERNAME, DOMAIN@USERNAME etc
But I would think that you do not need username in the GENERAL page under EAP-PEAP
You need username under EAP page/EAP-MSCHAPv2
I assume you have the certificate installed on the handset.

I have an old iBook (circa 2002) ver 1.12, with 640KB ram, running OS X 10.2.8. It seems to be running well but we have moved to WPA authentication on our network and the iBook does not seem to be able to handle this.

Is there a patch, or updated version of OS X, that recognizes wpa authentication?

thank you for your response!
I am about to look into the efelix site for the PC, thank you. i'm excited.
for the mac, me thinks that i am out of luck with updating the driver. on the epson site the most recent drivers for my printer (epson sytlus photo 820) are for OS X 10.1.3 - 10.2.6, and I am running OS X 10.2.8.
Hmmmm, I downloaded the driver anyway, and it gives me an APPLICATION LAUNCH FAILURE because of a "shared library error" when I try to launch the new drivers. The other thing on the site is a PIM II Plug In - which doesn't look like a driver to me.
a link to the lack of drivers for my poor mac...

WAP321 - Station had an authentication failure, reason 19/20

Clients can authenticate succesful, work for some time, until they get an authentication failure, reason 19, followed by reason 20. WLAN has to be disabled and again enabled on the client and it's working again unti it come's again to the authentication failures. What do these failures mean? And how can these be resolved?
Thanks, Roland

Intermittent AD Authentication failures in ISE 1.2

Starting today I was getting intermittent authentication failures in ISE. It would say that the user was not found in the selected identity store. The account is there though. At one point I ran a authetication test from the external identity source menu and I got a failure and then the next time a pass. I have no idea why this is happening. I just updated to ISE 1.2 the other day. I'm also seeing what looks like a high level of latency on both of my PSN's. Is this normal? Any ideas?
Thanks
Jef

Interesting. I have one location that is not having this problem at all. The other is having it somewhat frequently. The PSN's for each location are tied to the local AD servers. I have not had this until we started getting 300-380 PC's connecting. We are a school so we are slowly getting started. It's real random. One user will work then another time they won't. Happens with admin and user. I have notices that with this new version of ISE it is complaining that it is getting accounting updates from the NAS too often, but I have not looked into this because I just installed 1.2 about 3-4 days ago and haven't had time to look into it.
When you say Multicast to you AD...how did you check that? We do use multicast.

HI, Im using Iphone 4 and i recently got my IOS updated to IOS7 and now im getting the error message as "PDP authentication failure" Im using Aircel carrier.

HI, Im using Iphone 4 and i recently got my IOS updated to IOS7 and now im getting the error message as "PDP authentication failure" Im using Aircel carrier.
Please let me know how to fix this issue

update...
I am not one to give up. So I called AT&T today. Now they are telling me they canceled my order because they were unable to fulfill my order. Basically, AT&T told me they sold out so they canceled my order so I can proceed to reorder again. It took them 4 days to realize this. I will be lucky if I get a new phone by Christmas. I am sure they will find a way to cancel my order again.
Again, I argued, how is this my fault. I placed my order at the store around 11 a.m. Pacific time. My friend ordered his phone online sometime after me. He got his but my order was canceled. AT&T tried to explain to me that they sold over 600,000 phones, almost 500 per minute during there peak. Again, I asked, how this was my fault.
I can understand over selling the phone. It is a great product. There is no reason to cancel my order. You adjust my order and tell me you will let me know when my phone will be in. I would have been mad that my phone was going to be late but I would have survived. At least I would be getting one.
At this point, I have no order and AT&T or Apple website will allow me to order one. I just want to get in the QUEUE for one.
Frustrated.

Error message when trying to recover HD: PXE-E61 Media test failure

Hi all, new to forums, lots of good info and support here.
Got the BSOD last week. Have been trying all of the various fixes mentioned on the board, to no avail. I went back multiple pages looking for alternatives to try. After stepping away for a few days, I got farther today than I did when I was frustrated. F12, chose to boot HDD, and got the following LOOPING error message:
PXE-E61 Media test failure check cable
PXR-MDF exiting PXE rom
Which gives me hope that I may not have to replace my hard drive.
I have a satellite L455-5975, and have ordered recovery disc from acclaim ('0' option didn't work for me, which makes me wonder if Toshiba time limits that support, but that's off topic)
So it looks to me like my RealTek Ethernet Controller might be the problem? Any thoughts or suggestions? Anything I can do or should I wait for recovery disk to arrive? I worry that the recovery disk isn't going to do what I need. Do I need to replace the ethernet controller, or is this a sign of a hard drive issue? I consider myself 'fairly' tech savvy, but I've never taken a computer apart/put one together myself. It would definitely cost less for me to replace HD myself than putting it in the shop. So I'm willing to try that option if need be.
I appreciate any help/support! Reading some of the previous posts make me wonder if rather than investing more money in the satellite, if I shouldn't instead be saving up to buy a new(er) model.

Creedym...
I have a very similar problem with my mini-notebook model NB305.
I'm getting the same message and can't get past F2 or F12.
Bottom line; I ordered the recovery data from Toshiba on-line by model number ---not by type. They sent two DVDs. My unit doesn't have an optical drive.
First call to "John"---yes, you can copy the data to a thumb drive and use that.
Almost two hours of transferring --- the NB305 did not respond to the thumb drive.
Second call to "Paul". After some consultation on his part with someone else he told me that they don't make a thumbdrive (USB) recovery disk for my model, that's why I received two DVDs. ! I would have take it to a shop where they etc...
I haven't decided what to do next. Maybe purchase an external drive rather than take it to a repair shop where it will probably cost more than buying an inexpensive external drive.

How to solve the error message "Could not activate cellular data network: PDP authentication failure"when using 3g or gPRS on safari with an iphone 4 and latest software updates

Please can someone help me to solve the error message "Could not activate cellular data network: PDP authentication failure"when using 3G or GPRS on safari with an iphone 4GS and latest software updates. I have tried resetting the network and phone settings. I have restored the factory settings on itunes and still the problem persists.

All iPhones sold in Japan are sold carrier locked and cannot be officially unlocked by the carrier. If you unlocked it, it was by unauthorized means (hacked), and support cannot be given to you in this forum.
Hacked iPhones are subject to countermeasures by Apple, particularly when updating the firmware. It is likely permanently re-locked or permanently disabled.

The test couldn't sign in to Outlook Web App due to an authentication failure. Extest_ account.

Hi.
I'm using SCOM 2012 R2 and have imported the Exchange server 2010 MP.
I have runned the TestCasConnectivityUser.ps1 script and almost everything is okay except for the OWA test login.
The OWA rule is working for some time until (I think) SCOM is doing a automatic password reset of the extest_ account. Then I get the OWA error below. The other test connectivity are working. Any suggestions.

Hi,
Based on the error, it looks like an OWA authentication failure.
Have you tried post this to LYNC forums?

ISE internal user authentication failure - user not found

Hi Forumers'
I trying to do wireless 802.1x, where identity store using intenral user.
But i found this error message when i trying to connect
Authentication failed :
22056 Subject not found in the applicable identity store(s)
My authrorization rules is built like this
identity groups = user identities group / " mygroup"
condition = no setting
permissions = standard / PermitAccess
Question 1
Any troubleshooting step to do on this?
Question 2
For the Authorization rules, what's the condition should set for using Internal User as Identity store?
Thanks
Noel

The error is caused to an authentication failure and is not an issue with authorization
You need to look at your authentications policy (Policy->Authentications) and see which identity store was authenticated against
In addition can do the Live Authentications page (Monitor->Authentications) and for the failing record click on the icon under details. This will give you the full details of the requets processing and you can see which rule was matched in the identity policy (Identity Policy Matched Rule) and "Selected Identity Stores".

[SOLVED] Authentication failure while try to login in GDM

Hi,
I just installed Arch Linux 64 bit on Virtualbox (I using GNOME and GDM). I have set on rc.conf daemon arrays to start dbus and gdm and it run well.
My problem is I can't login using root. When I try to login, it prompt Authentication failure
I can't re-configure my rc.conf because I can't login, and I stuck in GDM screen..
When I try to use "Ctrl+Alt+F1", it effects to my host (ubuntu), not to my guest Arch
How to skip GDM to started for this condition and how to solve this authentication failure ?
Last edited by alphazero (2011-11-20 11:51:19)

Since I run on virtualbox. I can't use Ctrl-F1, so I try to edit rc.conf using LiveCD
After I modify rc.conf and remove gdm in daemon array, I reboot and login as root.. adduser and finally it works login as user
And I add again gdm after it worked to log as user.
So problem solved.. Thanks to wonder for your help.

Go URL - User Authentication Failure

Hi,
I am trying to use a 'Go URL' in web application and I see some issue with authentication mechanism.
I was able to login and view the dashboard whenever the username used in the 'Go URL' is from the console. But if the user who is from Active directory is used in the 'Go URL' link, then I get the login page saying 'Invalid username or password'. When I check the log file, it says ' [53012] User Authentication Failure'.
Also the AD user can login from the login page, but not thru 'Go-URL' link.
Can anyone let me know whether I am missing any step?
Thanks

If you dont user NQUser and NQPassword then they will be prompted for a password. you need to http://<hostname.domain>:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=<your GO URLpath>*&NQuser=USERNAME&NQPassword=PASSWORD*
You should not access if URL without logging in.
