Hi there!
I have a Nokia E-63 phone and i am finding problems while trying to connect it to my home Wifi.
Just to make my problem clear, here is some info about my connection:
The wireless configuration is as shown here Wireless info.
The ISP is Airtel.
It uses WPA/WPA2 Enterprise, PEAP, and MSCHAPv2 for authentication.
So i chose the folowing:
Security Mode: WPA/WPA2
EAP Plugin settings:
EAP-PEAP
Certificate: thawte premium server CA
MSCHAPv2 authentication
Selected "Yes" in prompt-password field.
Now when i connect, i get the error:
WLAN:
EAP-PEAP authentication failed.
As I am not getting to even prompt password thing, i guess there is something wrong with the certificates thing.
I have configured everythig as it was there in numerous threaads out here but still no luck. I tried all certificates listed here, still problem persists.
I have seen logs at my modem, it says EAP-Request and then EAP failure whenever i try to connect.
Can someone help me out plzz.. this thing is making me crazy..
Solved! Go to Solution.

You better use WPA/WPA2 personal with a pre-shared key.

if you can notice, the Authentication type in the "Interface-setup" is disabled.
Probably they did so for extra security.
So for pre-shared key based setup, i may need a different firmaware, form god knows where.
But that doesnt seem like "using a bulldozer to kill an ant", it must be possible right?
I am currently connected from my laptop using that connection only.
Are there some logs where i could see what went wrong?

There has to be a way to change to WPA personal in the router settings. Check other options like Wireless, Advanced Setup and Access Management. If you use EAP-PEAP, raise priority and disable others.

I got my problem solved, all i needed to do was move the certificate for my ISP to the mobile phone, i did that via bluetooth, save the certificate, and it worked
