I finally got the right certificate!

Now it´s working!!!

The funny thing is that I found it by own. The IT team doesn´t know where this certificate is.

[ynohtna]

it would be good to know what you did in your instance to get the right certificate for future reference if other people are searching for similar issues.

[igorlt78]

I got the certificate in Windows 7 network settings, then I selected peap network.

After that, I choose security, then settings, then I double clicked on "uolcorp" that is my realm.

I don´t know why, but in Windows 7 the option for this certificate is not turned on.

I just copy this certificate to my N8 and it worked!

I need help to connect my N8 to my university WiFi; so could you please provide us with the steps step-by-step procedure of how you got the certificate from your Windows 7 and then moved it to the N8, and get the N8 use this certificate.

   I do have access to the university WiFi through my Windows 7 laptop, but I want to have it for my N8.

1 - Go to control Panel

2 - Network and Sharing Center

3 - Click on your peap network

4 - Click on "wireless properties" and then select "security"

5 - Choose "settings"

6 - Look for your certificate on that list, and double click on it.

7 - Choose "details" and then "copy to file"

8 - Click on "next" and select "DER Encoded binary X.509"

9 - Save the .cer file and send to your phone over bluetooth or USB

10 - Just open the File Manager on your phone click on the .cer file to install

I hope this is gonna work for you as worked for me!

Hey thanks for posting that.  I didn't need to do that but it's good to know the steps are there to do it properly for Nokia! (ie: getting certificate files)

again, nokia, still angry it's not automatic

[douvadouk]

Thanks igorlt78 it worked perfectly  

[chaau]

Thanks igorlt78 for the info. How do you know which certificate is yours? All I can see is the list of certificates. None of them is checked, even Validate Server certificates isn't checked.

Does it mean our compant does not use any certificates for wireless network?

[tgnana]

Still not connected! (keeps telling "connecting')

what is the right format of user name? is it Username\domain or username or username@domain.

[ynohtna]

Just username for me.

[Shesh_M]

I got the CA installed in N8 and have selected the same in EAP-PEAP setting settings...I am using domain\username in username....but still getting authenication failure....kindly help

[Shesh_M]

Hello again...

Can anyone tell me how to check which certificate is used by my company....as per IT Team they say there is no certificate as such...My laptop is working fine ...but unable to connect N8....pls help...

[ramany]

A plead to anyone...

Has a solution been found for EAP-PEAP authentication without Server Certificate?

I see no one talked about it on these forums after March. So is it solved of people have given up. This is something very basic every other smartphone is able to do. This is really shameful.

[NoSolutionFrEAP]

It is so sad,

if there is no certificate ,,, why I need to ask my IT tech to give me one ?

Why Nokia N8 can not connected like other smart phones ? 

I like nokia hardware but really programming software should be more simple or user friendly 

other phones can connect to any Wi-Fi (correct user / pass ) in one time, 

with nokia n8, you need to put user name/pass and wait , and re-click again on the Wi-Fi name to connect ... 

[ynohtna]

I think you always need a certificate, if they say you need one, you just need to use one of the default ones already installed on the phone. I used a windows machine that was previously connected to know which one.

You're setting up your wifi connection not the best way. You can scan for wifi, but best is to go to Settings, Connectivity, Destinations and add it to the Internet destination and will auto connect after that.

Just adding my 2 cents.....After getting the certs in der format from the IT department (with .cer) extension on my laptop I used bluetooth on the laptop to push the cert to the cellphone. then open the text and it asked what the cert will be used for, I selected all the options.

Then selected the wifi and selected Wi-Fi security settings

Select EAP plug-ins settings--> then EAP-PEAP

1.  Selected Authority certificate which will give a list of certs go through it and select the one you just got from laptop 

2. Select username in use user defined without the domain  user.name

3. Select realm in use as user defined and then give domain DOMAIN

4. then select EAP-MSCHAPv2 by clicking arroe in upper right corner

5. Select user.name and then prompt password no and then give the password

that should do it
