Better mechanism for dealing with networks requiring authentication Modified By flightlead404 on 6/19/2012 1:26:33 PM

I have tried to use my iFly 720 with both WiFi networks at my current client. One is a Bluecoat proxy, which is an open network but redirects to a web page with forms-based authentication the first time you attempt to connect outbound. The other is a WPA protected network with 802.1x authentication.

I cannot use the iFly with either network.

Re: Better mechanism for dealing with networks requiring authentication

The forms-based authentication problem is corrected in the version 7 software we're soon to release. You will also need to upgrade your OS, give our office a call for steps to do that.

It should work with your WPA network. Perhaps upgrading your OS will help there too.

Thanks!

Any chance for WPA Enterprise (id and password) authentication?
