C1000/3x00 General discussions / Newbie Problem With Wifi Wpa
« on: September 19, 2005, 10:48:20 am »
Hey all!
being a newbie on this forum and on zaurus usage, I was wondering anybody could help me out with a problem.
So, together with my zaurus C1000 I bought a planex WiFi card (in japan). With some new prism drivers it works at my mum's home (a wlan without any kind of encryption) but at my university I can't get it to work.
My university's network is of the WPA kind (so they told me) and requires my username and password to use it.
I checked it, and the planex itself is WPA compatible, but how do I get my zaurus to be able to handle WPA? Just using the PPoE field for my username and password doesn't work, so I guess I need additional drivers. I read some stuff on the internet about WPA supplicants, but, newbie as I am, the majority of the information is just too technical for me.
Can anybody help me out? Maybe there's an ipk available to get WPA to work?
Thanks a lot! Daniel
PS for the rest: the zaurus is awesome! Thanks to everybody in this forum for all the info and the useful software!
