how to connect eduroam on n900
Hi,
i want to connect eduroam. But i cant. my university's eduroam connection ssid name is eduroam. When i trying to connect eduroam, asks WEP key. So i go to the settings->internet connections, then connections. i selected new, and next,next. it asks scan for available wi-fi networks. i selected yes. then i selected eduroam. it asks wep key. i entered qwert. And finished. After that, i selected which i recently created and clicked edit. i clicked next and here is security method. i turned it WEP to WPA with EAP. and i made other settings. But still when i trying to connect eduroam it asks WEP password. Why it doesnt use settings? i wish i could tell my problem. thanks. |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
I have eduroam working in my N900. My settings are:
SSID: eduroam Network mode: Infrastructure Security method: WPA with EAP EAP type: PEAP Select Certificate: None EAP method: EAP MSCHAPv2 User name: ...@... Now, very important, go to Advanced -> EAP tab Use manual user name: checked Manual user name: ...@... (same as User name) |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
Ok, i setup this settings.
but when i trying to connect it asks WEP password. but i set up settings about this ssid. |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
I tried exactly the same settings as you but it does not work here.
Even though I configure it properly in "Settings > Connections", whenever I select the "eduroam" network in the connection manager its asks again for the settings... |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
same problem here
I asked the tech support guy at my uni and he said the phone needs EAP method: PAP, which isn't selectable lol I did find a method somewhere on the web which activates it via the terminal, but cba to find it again and try |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
For me the problem was in the advanced settings. But i think different universities use different eduroam configurations.
You must check what is the configuration for your University, for mine it's described here Also i didn't try PR1.2, only the previous one. |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
You might want to look into this bug report: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1635
Specifically for PR1.2 Janne Ylälehto from Nokia has written a small Qt app which enables the "hidden" PAP support: https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1635#c107 |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
aeon > My University is actually using the same settings as yours (WPA - PEAP - MSChap v2). Before reading your post, I did not think of activating manual username setting. However, enabling it and inputing the correct username does not help here.
One difference is that I'm using PR 1.2 already. |

Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
Sorry, I don't think I can help you with the specifics of your problem, but here's a dump of the settings I have for working eduroam in my "Internet connections":
Connection name: Eduroam Connection type: WLAN Network name (SSID): eduroam Network is hidden: [ ] Network mode: Infrastructure Security method: WPA with EAP EAP type: PEAP Select certificate: None EAP method: EAP MSCHAPv2 Username: (my username with domain) Password: (my password) Prompt password at every login: [ ] Advanced/EAP Use manual user name: [×] Manual user name: (my username with domain) Require client authentication: [ ] The one problem with this setup I have is that the "use manual user name" bit is really needed for it to work, but it means that the N900 never automatically connects to Eduroam, you have to manually connect. And if you drop out of WLAN range or something, you'll get switched back to phone network until you again manually connect. It'd be cool if someone who understood EAP could eliminate this problem, is it a "feature" of the N900 implementation? Edit: found out that the non-connectivity is Bug 3399 |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
I don't know if it helps, but I will share my experiences with eduroam on PR 1.2. My institution uses WPA with EAP(TTLS) with inner PAP authentication and needs a GTE certificate.
You need to enable TTLS/PAP by downloading WLAN Tool from http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...1&postcount=13 and then enable the setting through the tools interface and reboot. If a certificate is need download it and install it on the device. Next comes setting up the connection. This has to be done manually, my setting are dumped below. There are a few things that confused me, firstly you can not select the appropriate certificate from the dropdown box, but this does not matter as the correct one is automatically selected. Secondly in the advanced settings section I had to supply the EAP username which is not yours but a anonymous identity. Connection name: Eduroam Connection type: WLAN Network name (SSID): eduroam Network is hidden: [ ] Network mode: Infrastructure Security method: WPA with EAP EAP type: TTLS Select certificate: None EAP method: EAP PAP Username: (user@domain) Password: (password) Prompt password at every login: [ ] Advanced/EAP Use manual user name: [×] Manual user name: (anonymous@domain) PradaBrada and others, I hope this helps. I would find out exactly what authentication protocols your institution uses and the anonymous username if needed. Oh and yes the non-connectivity bug is very annoying. |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
Hy substance33,
I've used the exact same settings, I am sure that the University of Groningen is using TTLS-PAP security, I've activated it using the WLAN tool, I've installed the certificate they provide for linux platforms, available here http://www.rug.nl/rechten/faculteit/...nux_man_wpasup , but when I select to connect to eduroam over here, it still asks for the WEP key. I don't know exactly the anonymous username required. I've tried "anonymous", "anonymous@rug.nl" and "anonymous@student.rug.nl". Here is the wpa_supplicant.conf file they are using for linux: ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=0 update_config=1 eapol_version=1 fast_reauth=1 network={ ssid="RuG-FN2" scan_ssid=0 mode=0 eapol_flags=3 id_str="rug" key_mgmt=IEEE8021X auth_alg=OPEN eap=TTLS identity="p<number>@staff.rug.nl" (or s<number>@student.rug.nl) anonymous_identity="anonymous" password="<password>" ca_cert="/etc/certs/ca.pem" phase2="auth=PAP" } RuG_FN2 and eduroam are the same thing. Could you help me with this? Thank you! |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
Also, i have tried to connect directly to the saved connection through the dbus-send --print-reply --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.icd /com/nokia/icd com.nokia.icd.connect string:"86ca9d79-120d-496f-9d42-e239e5c7f430" uint32:0 code, of course after I found the IAP with gconftool --all-dirs /system/osso/connectivity/IAP and it says
Error com.nokia.icd.error.iap_not_available: Failed to establish requested IAP Hope to solve it soon...:( |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
And of course, if anyone else can help me, I am happy to try anything...
Btw, I am sure that I copied the IAP correctly. |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
Hmm,
It sounds like a problem with wpa_supplicant.conf or it may be this bug. Are there any messages in the log? Also have you created a profile with the wizard? If so can you dump the variables in a post. About the anonymous username .etc, this is only for Eduroam not RUG NET (I think), it looks like they employ different settings. |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
These are the settings from the profile I created with the wizzard?
Connection name: eduroam Connection type: WLAN SSID: eduroam Network is hidden [ ] Network mode: Infrastructure Security method: WPA with EAP EAP type: TTLS Select certificate: None EAP method: EAP PAP Username: s205****@student.rug.nl Password: ************ Prompt password at every login: [ ] Advanced:> EAP> Use manual user name: [x] Manual user name: anonymous Also tried Use manual user name: [x] Manual user name: anonymous@student.rug.nl ; anonymous@rug.nl; s205*****@student.rug.nl ; Also tried Use manual user name: [ ] Manual user name: _______________ I couldn't connect dirrectly through the terminal, see previous post. When I tap the status bar> Internetion connection> eduroam, it just asks for a WEP key. It's not the bug you mentioned. I've just asked the guy from IT Service and he said that the WEP layer is an extra-protection layer. Windows computers need extra-software to be able to access the network, Apple computers can be configured without any software and Linux needs the wpa_supplicant.conf which I listed in a post above. I had previously installed Auto-Disconnect and WiFi Switcher, but I uninstalled both of them... Still not able to connect. I would try the following: reset the WLAN adapter (I am noob, so don't know what code to use in the X-Terminal, couldn't find it on the web). Also I am now trying to find a way to bypass the first WEP layer so the phone goes directly to the second WPA layer. Another thing I tried, but with no success: Actually created wpa_supplicant folder in /etc and copied the wpa_supplicant.conf to the folder. Did this by running gpe-filemanager in x-terminal with rootsh: rootsh gpe-filemanager. I even installed the linux certificate ca.pem they provide on the website. No difference. Any opinions? Thank you! I still cannot connect |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
Only found some ways to crack a WEP network, a bit difficult, haven't tried... There is no WEP key for accesing the network, so it would be no use...
Furthermore, I used gconftool -R /system/osso/connectivity/IAP to find the IAP and try again to connect directly. It displays the configuration details of the saved connection. And instead of "EAP_PAP_username" it displays "EAP_MSCHAPV2_username". This is truly strange. Again, in the settings wizard it is configured as WPA with EAP, TTLS, EAP PAP. Any ideas? |
Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
Furthermore, when I try to connect to any saved connections, through dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.icd /com/nokia/icd com.nokia.icd.connect string:"[ANY]" uint32:0
, it says that "No saved connections available". I'm completely out of ideas... :( |

Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
I have eduroam working, but it won't autoconnect.
While searching this problem, I found this. Can anyone with more compiling-skills please compile this? I don't know if it will help, but worth a try I reckon... Thanks |

Re: how to connect eduroam on n900
works as described in post #1 here at TU Dresden using EAP method "EAP-MSCHAPv2".
EDIT: autoconnect bug still present :( |
