Hi. I have a Nokia N8, and I'm having trouble with connecting to my university's Wifi. The problem being that to connect to the network you require to input your credentials, and my web browser on my N8 doesn't prompt me to input anything |

Try searching for networks first.

I'm able to pick up the network, but unable to browse. Because it requires my credentials to browse.

lol. Let me thoroughly explain. I search for WLAN on my N8 and find my university's wlan. I hit connect, and it connects. Then i hit start browsing, and it opens my web browser and loads the uni's homepage. I can freely browse that domain, but if I choose to go to, lets say, google.com, nothing happens.

However, if I bring my laptop and connect it to university's wifi. It connects and it browses the university's homepage domain. If i choose to go to google.com, i get a pop up window appearing that asks for my username and password (which is my student number and password) and then i'm allowed to browse whatever I want...

What I want is a similar thing to happen on my N8 as it does on my laptop! :-)

you need to add the wifi connections proxy. I had the same problem
|

@crzedude | 28 September 11 |

lol whats the chance you're in ukzn? 8o only they use that proxy setup in sa
|
||
|
|
@skippie7 | 29 September 11 |
|
what kind of proxy
|
||
|
|

|
it would be a bit tricky for someone like you to figure out how to make it work, but the univerity proxy adress is bcproxy.ukzn.ac.za the N8 cant auto detect it like a pc or a laptop, so it has to be entered manually along with the proxy port number 8080
