Solutions to Connect to WPA2/PEAP/GTC

Reading the forums I never found a good solution to a problem we are having at my school district.
We use WPA2 Enterprise with PEAP and GTC to connect. OS X 10.5 can connect just find, but recently we found a MAC with 10.4.11 that just refuses to connect event though I've set up the 802.1X to connect to PEAP properly. I've tried importing the certificate (even though the server doesn't require it be accepted), I made sure it was fully updated, and anything I could think of.
Anybody know of a solution, or maybe a third party USB Wireless Adapter that works?

Install a VNC server on your PC from http://www.realnvnc.com
Open port 5900 on the firewall/router and connect from ARD to the machine

  • MAC OS 10.4.11 connecting to WPA2 Enterprise not permanently working

    Hi,
    I have an issue with the following environment. I will try to simply my wording to help understand the problem.
    Hardware: Macbook Pro 17" Intel Core 2 Duo and Macbook laptops
    Operating System: Both run MAC OS 10.4.11 fully updated (According to Apple Reps, this operating system is no longer supported)
    Airport cards: Both have Airport Extreme cards. The Macbook Pro's card is using Firmware version 1.4.4 ( card type requirement to connect to WPA2 Enterprise network)
    Connection type: Connected via PEAP (Inner Protocol:MSCHAPv2)
    Wireless Access Point (WAP): Cisco Aironet 1142: Macbook connects to WAP to gain access to the Internet.
    Cisco ACS version 5 server (validates macbook username and password entries to Microsoft AD servers.)
    Microsoft Windows Server 2003 with Active Directory (holds user accounts) 
    Other Operating systems MAC OS 10.5 to MAC OS 10.7 (Leopard, Snow Leopard, and Lion make automatic connections.)
    Basically, the process is that the macbook user enters in their email username and password into a WPA2 Enterprise wireless connection. The Cisco 1142 broadcasts the SSID for the user to connect to. Once the wireless connection is made to the Cisco 1142 WAP, the WAP sends the username and password to the ACS server. The ACS server verifies the username and password from the macbook to Microsoft Windows Server AD user accounts. If the password is validated, then the ACS grants access to the wireless Internet to the macbook user.
    The wireless configuration involves the following process:
    1. Click on the desktop, Go should be available now.
    2. Click on Go, then Applications. The Applications window will appear.
    3. Click on Internet Connect.
    4. By default, The 802.1X connection is not available. We will be using the 802.1X connection to enter and save the username and password. Click on File and select "New 802.1X Connection."
    5. A windows should appear. Under Configurations, select Edit Configurations.
    6. An 802.1X windows will appear to enter in the following:
    - Description: name of connection
    - Network port: Airport
    -User Name: domain\username or just username of email account
    -password: password for email account
    -Wireless Network: SSID of Cisco Aironet 1142 Wireless Access Point (WAP)
    -Authentication PEAP configured with outer identity of anonymous. We uncheck TTLS, EAP-FAST, LEAP, and MD5.
    7. Click Ok. Select Connect and it should connect to the SSID if the username and password are valid accounts.
    8. Select File and then "Export 802.1X Configuration to login Window."
    To verify connection:
    1. We go to Apple - System Preferences and select Network.
    2. The Airport should say that it is conected to the SSID. You are connected to the Internet via Airport.
    3. Go a little deeper, we click on configure for the Airport.
    4. Under By default join: select Preferred networks. Under network name, we should see the SSID connection. We select it and click on the edit button.
    5. We verify that the connection has Network Name, Wireless Security, User Name, Password, and 802.1X Configuration entered in correctly. We select Ok after verification or modification. Then we select Apply Now to save any changes.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------The Problems---------------------------------------------------------------------
    1. When shutting down the system and then turning it on. The Airport doesn't make a connecation to the SSID being broadcasted automatically. We would have to turn the airport off and back on for it to make an connection.
    2. When the laptop is left idle or goes to sleep, the wireless connection drops. The user would have to turn the airport off and back on to stay connected.
    Is there a fix for this?
    Thank you to anyone that would take time to read this and provide helpful feedback.

    The "v" key at startup is not Safe Mode. Try holding the Shift key down and restart for Safe Mode. This will disable extensions and help it start. It also checks some things out.
    Can you start it up from your Tiger disc? Hold the C key down at startup until you see the Apple.
    Your hard drive may be going kaput. Hope you have a good backup.

  • Ipad2 dropping connection with WPA2

    I recently changed my FIOS connection to WPA2, and my Ipad 2 keeps dropping connection after a few min of play.  I have no issues with my Ipad 1, Iphone, and Itouch connecting to it. It seems to only happen with the Ipad2.  My wireless is set up with WPA2 AES encryption using the standard FIOS router.  It is not a distance from router issue either.  I have been right next to the router with all the devices and still only have the issue with the Ipad2.  I restarted the router, deleted the connection and reconnected to the router also. 

    IPad dropping WiFi every few seconds after updating iOs to version 5.x
    I have the same problem with my iPad 2. It was working fine when my iOS was v.4.3.3. After updating the iOs to version 5.0.1, I kept dropping my WiFi & Internet signal. I am using WPA2, and my SSID is OFF (does not broadcast). 
    To solve the problem, I updated iOs to v5.1. Same problem occurred. I tried using the OpenDNS as suggested.. Did not work too. WiFi stays on for 5-10 seconds before saying signal was lost. Tried to log on again - iPad replied that I cannot join the network. Tried soft & hard reset, forgetting network settings, resetting all network Setting, etc - still nothing works.
    Finally, out of frustration, I turned ON my router's SSID (broadcasting openly). Guess what? My iPad WiFi is working perfectly without any dropped connection. 
    Please try this quick solution. It may just fix your problems. I realized that this solution may be effective for some iPad users out there.  But there is a chance it may not work with others (I tried almost all suggestions in other forums - ranging from updating the wireless router firmware, using an OpenDNS, doing a soft & hard reset of the iPad, etc. Still, nothing worked for my iPad - except this simple SSID setting). Hopefully, this additional solution might help someone. Good luck :-)

  • ISSUE: Wifi and Enterprise Networks - No PEAP-MSCHAPv2 & PEAP-GTC support.

    Since owning my HP Touchpad i have not been able to connect to my schools Wifi network making the unit a digital photo frame.
    The issues seems to be well documented across many forums with no aknowledgement from hp/webOS.
     A post from another forum
    Davegarbs Wrote:
    At least for me, importing the cert did nothing, as WiFi appears to be broken with both PEAP-GTC and PEAP-MSCHAPv2. I have had a bug report open with HP for 3 weeks now and haven't heard a single word. I even captured a ton of logs from the device that I thought would help get things taken care of.
    The only way I found to fix this is to use wpa_cli to reconfigure wpa_supplicant with the proper config for your network. This HAS to be done right as you log into the network in the WiFi app. Judging by the following link, this has been a problem for a long time:
    Advanced Wifi - WebOS Internals
    I'll be really surprised if HP gets back to me, but I'll update this thread if/when I hear from them. 
    So there seems to be a fix, but some users might find that a little bit difficult.
    Can HP/PALM/webOS/OBAMA/Astronaught please fix this issue?, it also seems to effect webOS phones.
    I can confirm both android and apple ipad/iphone/imac do not have this issue.
    I would like to be able to use my HP Touchpad to its full potential rather than just slide showing photos.
    Cheers

  • Found solution for connection problems iPod Nano 3rd gen to Windows Vista!!

    Hello people!
    I just found a solution to connection problems with iPod Nano 3rd generation when connecting it to a Windows Vista machine.
    Because of 'security reasons', Vista asks you to check the drive for errors when connecting the iPod.
    The thing to do here:
    Click the cross to exit the windows; DON'T CLICK 'do not check drive'!!!!
    So just click the red cross to close the window and the iPod should be recognized by iTunes.
    Symptoms:
    - iPod cannot be recognized by iTunes when you connect it.
    - iPod doesn't show up as a drive in Windows Explorer.
    I really really hope I solved your problem. Have fun!
    Jasper

    Have not been able to connect to iTunes for months, right about the time Microsoft put out the Zune! Would love to hear from a lawyer about a class action lawsuit againat Apple since this issue has not been resolved and we are required to use iTunes. In the meantime, filing a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission!

  • Unable to connect to Wi-Fi connection using WPA2 PSK authentication and encryption type TKIP

    Original Title: TKIP selection in WiFi network settings
    I have a workplace WiFi connection using WPA2 PSK authentication and encryption type TKIP.
    On the machine I used to test Windows 10, I had a previous installation of Windows 7 professional which connected to my workplace WiFi using the above settings. After installing Windows 10, my workplace wifi settings were imported and worked fine.
    Windows 10 had a system crash, and since I had deleted my previous windows installation, I performed a complete reinstall of Windows 7. However, when I went to install Windows 10 again, I had not taken the time to set up my workplace Wifi on Windows
    7 before installing Windows 10. As a result, I had to set up my workplace wifi as a new connection in Windows 10.
    When going to set up the wifi connection, the encryption type was grayed out, but appeared to default to AES. Searching the internet suggested that Windows 8.1 did not need a encryption type selected, because Windows could automatically determine
    if it was TKIP or AES, hence why the option to select encryption type was grayed out. However, after completing the setup of my workplace wifi, Windows 10 could not connect to my workplace wifi. After restoring Windows 7 with a factory reset, and setting up
    the workplace wifi (the encryption type selection was not grayed out and I manually selected TKIP encryption), my workplace wifi was working again.

  • PEAP-GTC on Win 7 and 8 platforms (LDAP authentication doesn't work)

    Hi all!
    Customer is using Open LDAP as directory services.
    We're setting Cisco Wi-Fi network with following authentication scheme:
    Wireless LAN Controller - Cisco ACS 5.3 - Open LDAP
    According to the documents ACS - LDAP supports only EAP-TLS and PEAP-GTC methods.
    We need to perform username/password authentication. It works good on Apple and Android devices. But id doesn't want to authenticate Windows 7 clients.
    We're unchecking "Validate Servers certificate" in WLAN settings of Win 7 client, but it still doesn't work.
    It seems, that Windows doesn't support PEAP-GTC method. Are there any workaround to solve the issue?
    I might assume, that there could be some software plug-ins (supplicants) that can be installed on Windows and give support of PEAP-GTC. But in this case customer will face serious organizational issues of provisioning new devices.
    Please advice!
    Thank you!
    Yuriy

    In order to see PEAP EAP-GTC option on the client, you need to install EAP-GTC supplicant on the client machine.

  • Xp won't connect to wpa2-psk security enabled network

    I have 3 laptops, 2 with win 7 premium and 1 with xp home edition, the win 7's will connect to the internet fine...but the xp won't connect at all, now if I turn off the security xp will connect fine, can anyone tell me what my problem is please? 
    Thank you Kindly for any help

    1. Make sure, you verify under "Preferred Networks" click on the connection that's not working, click properties.  
    Verify WPA2 is an option in "Authentication".  If it's not download the latest drivers for your wireless adapter, restart computer and check again.
    2. Next problem is XP's Wireless Lan Manager; it is absolute garbage on XP for WPA2.  I have seen many XP SP3 unable to connect to WPA2 because of this.  You need to use the wireless manager that comes with your wireless adapter drivers.  When
    you install them opt to install with the software, not just the driver.

  • Can't create a WPA2-Enterprise wireless connection; missing Microsoft: PEAP

    OS: Windows 7 64-bit Enterprise
    Hardware: Lenovo T410S w/Intel 5300 ABGN Wireless
    If I try to build the wireless connection manually and choose WPA2-Enterprise, then click next, I get 'An unexpected error occurred.' and no options to configure; just close.
    I then tried to create a Preshared Key WPA2 connection. This worked fine. When I go to edit the connection, I have the ability to select the WPA2-Enterprise options, however in the list of Network Authentication methods (under Security Tab), I don't have
    the Microsoft: PEAP or SmartCard options. I only have Cisco: LEAP,PEAP,EAP-FAST and Intel: EAP-SIM,EAP-TTLS,EAP-AKA (6 entries).
    It's my theory that because the Microsoft options are missing, the wizard gets the unexpected error. I'm wondering how I get the MS ones back.

  • N8 - It can't connect on EAP-PEAP network! Help!

    I went to IT department of my University hoping they could give me the right certificate and the right configurations, they did so, then I installed that but I still can't connect! I have searched around the other topics, and the solution was basically on getting the right certificate and changing some configs. Any suggestions?
    Here are my configs:
    Wi-Fi Security Mode: 802.1x
    WPA/WPA2: EAP
    EAP Plugin settings: Just EAP-PEAP enabled, others are disabled.
    Personal Certificate: Not Defined
    Authority Certificate: Unoesc (http://www.unoesc.edu.br/funoesc.crt)
    Username in use: 164334
    Real in Use: User Defined
    Realm: unoesc
    TLS privacy: off
    Allow PEAPv0: Yes
    Allow PEAPv1: No
    Allow PEAPv2: No

    I forgot to mention that only EAP-MSCHAPv2 is enabled, with my username that is "164334" and my password.

    You seem to be missing the "Authority Certificate".   Using EAP-PEAP and EAP-TTLS on N8 (and other Nokia Symbian phones) requires that you MUST define have a valid Authority Certificate installed on the phone and it also has to be defined in to the EAP-PEAP settings.
    If you don't define any Authority Certificate or if you have selected wrong certificate then PEAP authentication will not work no matter what you do with rest of the settings.
    There is no option to "save" the EAP-GTC password to phone settings, instead phone will prompt the GTC password during the authentication.   If your network supports PEAP with EAP-MSCHAPv2 auhentication then you could save the EAP-MSCHAPv2 username and password to settings so that password won't be prompted during the authentication.

  • HP Wireless Printers cannot connect to WPA2-secured WiFi networks with Cisco/Meraki WAPs

    In the last two months, I've had the displeasure of working with two very different HP printers and attempting to make them work on a WPA2-secured wireless network.  All attempts to authenticate fail with "invalid phassphrase". 
    I'm not the first person to encounter this, it's a problem with many different HP wireless printers (I just happen to have physical access to the OfficeJet Pro 8610 & Deskjet 3511). 
    My equipment is a Cisco ASA 5505 Firewall running ASA 9.1x & Cisco Aironet 1142 running IOS 15.3.x. 
    What does work on the WPA2/AES SSID:  Apple MacBook Air running OSX 10.10.2, Three Windows-Based laptops running Windows 8.1 Update 1, an iPhone 5s, Three Windows Phone 8.1 devices, Roku 2, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Sharp Aquos TV, Amazon Streaming Stick, and an Android Tablet (Jellybean).  Basically, everything. 
    What does not work on the WPA2 network:  OfficeJet Pro 8610 & Deskjet 3511.
    To test the theory there is a problem with HP's implementation of WPA2 with regard to Cisco Aironet IOS, I built out a second SSID that only works in WPA/TKIP mode.  This solution works.  Both HP printers will join the WPA/TKIP network.
    So, I'm able to demonstrate there is a certain connectivity issue.  When i look at AAA Debug on the WAP's console, I can observe the HPs attempt to authenticate "Bind I/F" on the WPA2 SSID, however they do not achieve authentication and do not pass the AAA phase.  However, on the WPA SSID, they bind and authenticate successfully. 
    To help illustrate this, here is my WAP running config.  It's about as simple as it can get.  There is no relevant MAC filtering or ACLs bound to any interface.  Noting that I have an ACL on remote access to the WAP (i.e. Locked down to SSH, disabling telnet).  The main point being that the ASA firewall is not a factor in this problem as the issue is at the WAP before WPA2 authentication can complete, therefore the printers never reach the network / when the printers connect to the WPA network, the operate fully & correctly. 
    If anyone at HP can indicate why this particular config is somehow improper or broken, that would be fantastic.  There should be no reason why Cisco / Meraki WAP owners have to lower wireless encryption standards just for a printer, be forced into wired, create separate SSIDs with lower encryption specifically for a device.

    I get the same behavior with a laserjet m451nw. I need to enable tkip to get the printer working, it doesn't support pure aes-ccm (every other device here supports pure aes-ccm, even cheap ones), although it's advertised as working.

  • NetworkManager Won't Connect to WPA2 Enterprise Encrypted Network

    I decided to switch back to using NetworkManager instead of wicd as my wireless protocol because I like how NetworkManager has a Gnome 3 applet and GUI that I can easily use to connect to wireless networks. Here at university, the "main" wireless network is WPA2 with PEAP Enterprise-level encryption. However, I've been unable to connect to that network through the NetworkManager GTK GUI. When I open up the network settings window, I can see a list of all available networks (with the "main" network being listed), however when I go to click on it to connect, it won't let me. The program won't try to connect or anything.
    I'm using an Intel wireless card that I KNOW can connect to network (as it worked in wicd), however it won't now. And just in case I'm forgetting something, my current daemon's array is:
    DAEMONS=(syslog-ng hwclock dbus networkmanager !netfs @gdm @crond @httpd @cupsd dropboxd)
    Am I missing something here? Thank you for any and all help, and if I'm leaving out information, please let me know and I'll try to provide as much information as possible.
    SOLVED:
    I simply entered in all of the information by hand, and NetworkManager connected easily. I'll just submit this as a bug report somewhere.

    I've been connecting through wifi-menu without problems since I installed Arch. As for nmcli, it gives me the following error:
    [ralph@AnarchBox ~]$ nmcli dev wifi con AnarchNet password **********
    nmcli: error while loading shared libraries: libnm.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    I then checked libnm-glib, and it was not installed, even though it's a dependency for networkmanager. I still couldn't connect through nmcli, so I checked the other dependencies, and dhclient, iproute2 and libmm-glib were also missing. I installed them, and I still have the same problem I started with, both with nm-applet and nmcli (nmcli will just try to connect and then the nm-applet window asking for a password pops up, then tries to connect again and repeats).

  • Problems connecting to WPA2 with D-Link DIR655 router

    I've searched around online and on these forums and I am finding that other people are having similar problems with connecting their iPhone or iPod to the wireless network. However, none of the answers seem to be dead-on solutions and the problem appears to be intermittent.
    DIR-655 hardware A4 firmware 1.32NA
    iPhone 3Gs firmware 3.1.2
    I have set up the DIR-655 broadcasting my SSID, using 802.11g and 802.11n with WPA2 Personal and auto encryption type. (I have tinkered with changing all the WPA2 encryption type combos with no improvement.) All of my other devices are able to connect except for the two iPhones that we own.
    The phones see the SSID and ask for the password. I provided the proper 10-letter passphrase (not hex characters) and it accepted it an placed a check mark next to the network SSID as if all was good. But it never connected.
    I was investigating the settings in the router when I discovered that ALL 100 of the DHCP address were being used. I saw the first 5 devices that I had connected earlier in the day and their MAC addresses and lease times were all proper. The other 95 entries were listed as:
    Hardware Address - 00:00:00:00:00:00
    Assigned IP - 192.168.0.xxx
    Expires - Never
    And this was despite the fact that the lease expiration time was set to 1440 minutes in the configuration. (These settings and DHCP listings are found on the Setup -> Network Settings page.) So I began clicking "Revoke" on these crazy entries and I saw more taking the place as quickly as I revoked them.
    What was happening was that the iPhone was attempting to connect and would initially be given a proper lease with the MAC address, IP and lease time of 24 hours. However somewhere in the authentication it would flip over to 00:00:00:00:00:00 and NEVER expiring. It then would try again in a few seconds and use up another IP address. It got to the point where all the DCHP IPs were used up and unavailable to any other devices.
    I think this might also explain the behavior that others are seeing when they state they have to power-cycle their router every 24 hours because their laptops are not able to get an IP address assigned.
    For the life of me, I can not think of why the router would freak out and put all zeros into the MAC address and change the expiration date of the lease to Never.

    OK, open System Preferences/Network
    Location: [New Location] and give it a name
    Show: [Network Port Configurations] drag Airport to the top and uncheck all others
    Show: [Airport]
    Airport tab - set [By default join] to Preferred networks
    In the pop-down select the D-Link network (and remove any others if there)
    TCP/IP tab - set [Configure ipV4] to Using DHCP
    Click [Apply Now] bottom right
    You should get an IP number allocated by the router ...
