---+!! Setting up the wireless-LANs under Windows Vista %TOC{title="Content"}% %ICON{info}% Since 29.11.2010 at Muenster University the additional SSID *wwu* has been available. The configuration of the SSID *wwu* is (except for the name) identical with the configuration of the already existing SSID *uni-ms*. The functionality of both SSIDs is virtually identical. Once available, it is now necessary to use the SSID *wwu* instead of uni-ms, in order to avoid roaming problems. ---++ Preconditions Essential preconditions for the use of WLAN at Muenster University: * ZIV user ID * Valid password for network access * Windows Vista (or Windows 7) with current updates * WPA2 compatible WLAN card * Installation of the certificates Upon installation of the certificates, activate all options and confirm with OK.pen the properties. (see image 6) A user ID is usually sent to you by post upon enrolment or employment commencement at university. University visitors get their ID for the duration of the event from one of the event assistants. The password for network access can be set up under [[https://www.uni-muenster.de/ZIV/en/MeinZIV/index.html][Mein ZIV]] Please note that there are two different passwords. The „central standard password“, which you received with the user ID and is also used to log into university computer workstations, cannot be used for the WLAN connection. You can check under [[https://www.uni-muenster.de/ZIV/en/MeinZIV/index.html][Mein ZIV]] whether you have the right password. The current updates for Vista can be accessed on the program "Windows Update". The fastest way is to enter "update" in the search form of the start menu. ---++ Step 1: Configuration of the WLAN Our users have two possibilities of configuring the WLAN: An [[#AutoConf][automatic configuration]] where the WLAN set-up is done by means of software, or the [[#ManConf][manual configuration]]. We advise you to first try the automatic configuration and if this should fail, continue with the manual configuration. #AutoConf ---+++ Automatic configuration Download the "ctWLANKloner" and the profile "uni-ms" for the wireless network of the university. Here are the download links: |Name|Link| |ctWLANKloner |[[%ATTACHURL%/ctWLANKloner.exe][Download]]| |University profile "uni-ms" |[[http://www.uni-muenster.de/ZIV.LinusStehr/data/vista_wlan/uni-ms.wlan][Download (click right mouse button -> save target as)]]| Execute the WLANKloner and import the WLAN profile of the university. If there is no error message, the WLAN has been successfully set up. You can now end the Cloner and continue with [[#RegHack][step 2]] (optional). As soon as you are within WLAN range, you will be asked for user name, password and registration domain. The user name is identical with the one you use for logging into university computer workstations. In this case the password is identical with the one for network access. The registration domain form remains empty. __Note__:<br /> <div style="background-color:#FFFF4B; padding:10px; border: solid 1px #B3B3B3;"> If the error message appears "error when initializing WLAN management: unknown error“, your WLAN card is probably not managed by Windows, but by a producer tool. In this case deactivate the tool or continue with manual configuration. </div> #ManConf ---+++ Manual configuration <p> __<u>Step 1</u> :__ Open the Windows start menu and choose __Connect To__ (see image 1) <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image01.jpg" alt="Image01.jpg" /> *image 1* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 2</u> :__ All received wireless networks will be shown. If no wireless networks are displayed there is something wrong with your wireless card or you are not in range of a network. We would like to set up a connection to uni-ms. For that, please choose __Set up connection or network__ (see image 2) <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image02.jpg" alt="Image02.jpg" /> *image 2* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 3</u> :__ Choose menu item __Manually connect to a wireless network__ and click __Next__ (see image 3) <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image03.jpg" alt="Image03.jpg" /> *image 3* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 4</u> :__ In the following dialog, enter all data as shown in the *image 4* below. <br><br> As network name (SSID) enter __uni-ms__.<br> As security type choose __WPA2-Enterprise (or WPA)__.<br> Adjust the encryption type to __AES (or TKIP with WPA)__.<br> Then click __Next__. __Note__:<br /> <div style="background-color:#FFFF4B; padding:10px; border: solid 1px #B3B3B3;"> If WPA is not available, your wireless LAN card or your driver unit do not provide it. Try to update your driver unit or get new hardware. An access to the wireless LAN is not possible, until your driver unit or your wireless LAN card do not provide WPA at least. AES is the more secure encoding and is recommended. Our hotspots provide TKIP and AES. </div> <br> <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image04.jpg" alt="Image04.jpg" /> *image 4* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 5</u> :__ If you have already tried connect to the network __uni-ms__ then a message appears. You should click __use the already existing network__, otherwise click __Connect to...__ (see image 5) <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image05.jpg" alt="Image05.jpg" /> *image 5* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 6</u> :__ Now the network overview reappears. If not, open the start menu and choose __Connect To__. With the right mouse button choose the net __uni-ms__ and open the __properties__. (see image 6) <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image06.jpg" alt="Image06.jpg" /> *image 6* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 7</u> :__ In the following window choose the tab __security__. Perform all set-ups according to the *image 7*. <br><br> As network authentication method choose __Protected EAP (PEAP)__. Then click __settings__. <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image07.jpg" alt="Image07.jpg" /> *image 7* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 8</u> :__ Activate the option __Validate server certificate__ and under *Trusted Root Certification Authorities* choose __Deutsche Telekom Root CA 2__. Under *Authentication method* choose __Secured Password (EAP-MSCHAP v2)_. Click __configure__. (see image 8) <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image08.jpg" alt="Image08.jpg" /> *image 8* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 9</u> :__ Deactivate the option __Automatically use my Windows logon name and password (and domain if any)__. (see image 9)<br><br> Configuration is now complete. You can close all windows with __OK__. <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image09.jpg" alt="Image09.jpg" /> *image 9* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 10</u> :__ If you are within range of the university WLAN network *uni-ms* you can set up the first connection. For that, open once more the WLAN overview with the start menu __Connect to__ (you should see image 10). With the right mouse button choose the network *uni-ms* and click __Connect__. <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image10.jpg" alt="Image10.jpg" /> *image 10* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 11</u> :__ At this point is maybe a bug. If you click __Connect__ in *step 10* the connection maybe broke up and failed to connect. If everything went well you should see *image 11*. If the connection failed to connect there is maybe a popup window in the bottom right corner *(see image 12)* which shows the information __Additional information is required to connect to uni-ms__. Click on it. <br><br> At the end you should see *image 13* from step 12. <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image11.jpg" alt="Image11.jpg" /> *image 11* </p> %BR% <p> <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image12.jpg" alt="Image12.jpg" /> *image 12* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 12</u> :__ You will now be asked to enter your user ID. As user name and password enter your central user ID and your password for network access (not the central standard password). Do not enter a registration domain. <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image13.jpg" alt="Image13.jpg" /> *image 13* </p> %BR% <p> __<u>Step 13</u> :__ Now click *OK*. User name and password will now be checked. If the connection has been set up successfully, another information window will appear. <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/Image14.jpg" alt="Image14.jpg" /> *image 14* </p> %BR% #RegHack ---++ Step 2: Settings in the registry (optional) for Windows Vista only When Windows Vista was released, it turned out that at several access points of the university there have been problems setting up a WLAN connection. Among the affected access points are the ones in the ULB, the UKM and the Mathematics Department. If you have problems connecting with the W-LAN, it is necessary to execute the following steps: <!-- Entfernt von Linus Stehr stehr@uni-muenster.de, da auf der MS-Seite von DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle die Rede ist, es jedoch DhcpConnDisableBcastFlagToggle sein muss. Die zweite Änderung (DHCPConnForceBroadcastFlag) wurde in den Artikel übernommen. Zunächst ist nach einer Anleitung von Microsoft eine Änderung in der Registry des Betriebssystems durchzuführen.%BR% Bitte führen Sie die Anweisungen aus folgendem Artikel durch (DHCP-Registry-Hack): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233/de --> __<u>Step 1</u> :__ Download the current version of the tool to adjust the registry [[https://www.uni-muenster.de/ZIVwiki/pub/Anleitungen/WirelessLANSetupWinVista/Vista_unims_WLAN_Patch.exe][here.]] (Tool is only available in german) <!-- alte Adresse [[https://zivwiki.uni-muenster.de/cgi-bin/viewfile/Anleitungen/WirelessLANSetupWinVista?rev=1;filename=Vista_unims_WLAN_Patch.exe][hier herunter.]] --> __<u>Step 2</u> :__ Click __Run as administrator__ with the right mouse button. (see image 15) <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/VistaPatch01.jpg" alt="VistaPatch01.jpg" /> *Image 15* __<u>Step 3</u> :__ In the window user account control click __Allow__. (see image 16) <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/VistaPatch02.jpg" alt="VistaPatch02.jpg" /> *Image 16* __<u>Step 4</u> :__ At *Wählen Sie ihren WLAN-Adapter aus" choose your W-LAN adapter and click __Durchführen__. You will receive feedback whether the program was able to carry out the changes. (see image 17) <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/VistaPatch03.jpg" alt="VistaPatch03.jpg" /> *Image 17* __<u>Step 5</u> :__ Restart your computer and try to connect again. (Alternatively, you can also [[WirelessLANSetupWinVistaRegHand][adjust the settings yourself]].) </p> %BR% <p> -- Main.LauraOeste - 2011-05-04 <br> -- Update Main.ChrisF - 2011-08-17
