Validating identity problems windows xp

posted by | Leave a comment

It can find the network fine, but when I try to connect, I don't get the password prompt -- it moves straight to "validating identity," scans, and then says "Windows was not able to find a certificate to log you on to the wireless network Foo." The maddening thing is that the card was working fine a week ago, in the same box, using the same OS.I pulled everything out, swapped out the motherboard, and reinstalled Windows on a freshly wiped hard drive, and now I can't get it up and running again. I've taken several runs at it, including attempting to manually change the settings for the network to include WPA-PSK and AES and the password, and I'm a bit worried that I've totally boned everything.This article describes the steps necessary to connect to your Cradlepoint through your computer.Your computer only allows one network connection at a time.If you are trying to connect to the 5GHz wifi, there will be a 5g after the last 3 of the routers MAC address.Note: If your router has multiple ethernet ports, DO NOT use the WAN port to connect a computer.To select preconfigured combinations of identity authentication methods and data encryption requirements, click Typical (recommended settings), and in Validate my identity as follows, click a method to use for validation.Depending on your Validate my identity as follows selection, you can select (enable) or clear (disable) the Automatically use my Windows logon name and password (and domain if any) or Require data encryption (disconnect if none) check boxes.

Your home site will be able to tell you whether PEAP MSCHAPv2 is the appropriate authenticiation method that you should use.

There's no WPA2 on the card, just WPA and WPA-PSK: WPA-PSK was the only setting that would let me enter a network key.

I had TKIP and AES as options there, but cipher type is AES on the router, so I chose that.

cheere Hadn't read all solutions so I apologize if I'm repeating someone but all I did was go back to Belkin router setup utility, or (192.168.2.1) and clicked "wi fi protected setup".

Then, I selected disable at the "wi fi protected setup (wps)" option.
