On my Palm Pre I am unable to connect to the wireless network (wi-fi) at school or work because both require a WPA2 connection with a Username/Password & Domain name.
I couldn't get it to work yesterday and did some research at night and figured maybe I could connect via "enterprise setting" however this is not the case... very disappointing. Palm has about 27 days to find a fix or this phone will be returned and I will reactive my treo.
Does anyone know a way around this? It really upsets me that the phone is stated as WPA2 capable yet no domain name field exists!
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

Have you tried putting your domain name before the username, i.e. <DOMAIN>\<USERNAME>? e.g.
Username: School\John Doe
Password: **********
If you network is not hidden, you don't even need to specify the security setting. I think it does it automatically when I select a network from the list, at least for me. Good luck!
