By
We have explained few general points regarding the usage of WiFi WLAN corporate networks and the compatibility of various mobile devices by Nokia, Blackberry, Android, Apple in this article WiFi WLAN corporate network usage on Nokia, Blackberry, Android, Apple iOS devices.

In this article, let us learn how the corporate WiFi WLAN connection can be configured for a Blackberry device and in particular when WPA2 security is chosen with EAP authentication which requires you to configure EAP-PEAP-MSHAPv2-Enterprise-settings. Here we assume that the person works in an organization which provides a WLAN network called ‘ABC-4U’ and the user has an account ‘u010101234’ in DOMABC domain. The group’s certificate is ‘ABCGroup-RootCA’.


A sample settings table for configuring the Wi-Fi WLAN corporate / enterprise network on Blackberry Curve 9300:

Name
ABC-4U
SSID
ABC-4U
Security Type
WPA/WPA2 Enterprise (Enable)
None (Disable)
WEP (Disable)

(as prescribed by your organization)
Inner link security
EAP-MS-CHAP v2 (Enable)
EAP-GTC (Disable)
Auto (Disable)

<Nothing>
Disable Server certificate validation
<Tick the checkbox>
This could be different based on your organization settings for WLAN.
Band Type
802.11 b/g/n
SSID broadcasted
<Tick the checkbox>
Automatically obtain IP address and DNS
<Tick the checkbox>
Allow inter-access point handover
<Tick the checkbox>

Select either ‘Save’ for connecting later or ‘Save & Connect’ to immediately connect with your WLAN of the organization.

We hope this information helps you to sort out any issues with your Blackberry for connecting with your organization’s WLAN networks using WPA/WPA2 Enterprise options. For other models of the Blackberry smartphones some settings could change but the basic security parameters are generally those mentioned above, which are also common for other smartphone platforms or devices like Nokia-Windows, Nokia-Symbian, Apple-iOS, Samsung-Android, Samsung-Windows, HTC-Android, LG-Android, etc.

Control of Mind through Spirituality.

By
      By B.E.Sampath Kumar.                          The concept of  Mind is a complex and multifaceted one that has been debated and explored by Philosophers, Neuroscientists, psychologists, and many other thinkers across various disciplines.  According to the Philosophical perspective, it is a non-physical entity that enables consciousness, thought, and intentionality.  It  is the seat of subjective  experience, perception and awareness.

Italian Coffee Pot Caffettiera is Simple yet Amazing

By
What is Caffettiera? Somehow, if anyone have found this word Caffettiera, it is difficult to understand what it exactly means? Caffettiera is an Italian word which means the ‘coffee pot’. Caffettiera, the Italian coffee pot is not only an amazing gift but also the cheapest and the best gift that the visitors can carry to their countries if they have not yet found in their places.

Writers, Authors and Bloggers must strive for 'Sahityam' and not for just limelight

By
There is a word in Sanskrit 'Sahityam' . All the literature i.e., writings in prose, poetry or in any other manner comes under this main heading Sahityam, which really means ' with good, with welfare ' and for good only. By this we can understand that the responsible writers or poets, the modern bloggers, web publishers should write only good and which helps the readers to live in welfare. But nowadays, many writers or bloggers or poets have broken all the bars (standards) and are writing whatever they like, causing mental turmoil to the readers. Sex, violence, terrorism and superstitions are being inflicted on the common man especially on the youth in the form of books (mediocre and misguiding), cinemas, TV series and through the websites.

An Indian dimension to Spirituality and methods of Self Control

By
This   Indian   (Hindu) dimension of Spirituality is our small effort to make our readers know something about ancient India’s wisdom which was precisely preserved in the form of   Vedas, Epics, Puranas, Upanishads , etc, all of which at more than one occasion have never refrained from the discussion on the   human behavior   and the methods of   Self-control . A little consideration will explain the fact that with the gained material knowledge on any subject, people try to do different things and in the process of doing things people make mistakes and those mistakes teach important lessons to improve our lives if those underlying lessons are understood properly Our experiences both good and bad will give way to critical thinking and the process of critical thinking more often is linked to our intellect and to our minds which in turn connect us with our own true selves to let us understand our true nature and the natural principles of this world. So i...

The Real person is hidden by the Pancha Koshas, the 5 psychic sheaths

By
The Human body what we normally see and feel is not an entity that is real. Instead, there are 5 sheaths enveloping the real entity 'Jiva' or causing an influence on the Jiva (Atman, the Soul). Panchakoshas, the five psychic sheaths enveloping/covering the 'Atman' or 'Aatma' (the Self, also called the Soul), are discussed in the Taittiriya Upanishad which is a part of the Taittiriya Samhita of the Krishna Yajur Veda. It gives a detailed description of the dimensions of human personality or the dimensions of the Self. The first of these sheaths or coverings (Koshas) is the Annamaya Kosha, the covering of the gross element, which is represented by the human body. It came into existence from the parents. It is nurtured with affection and care. It is the grossest covering. It has given its color to the soul and has dominated the soul so much, that it does not consider itself separate from it. Day and night the people are engaged in its care, and all the time...

Back with the recovery option on Windows 10 with AOMEI

By Ajay Kumar

Whenever we bought a new laptop we get the two partitions on which one is recovery partition done by the selling company for easy and quick recovery with a small piece of software installed in the operating system. Today we have the facility to optimize the laptop by choosing the requirements, whether to include or exclude the operating system. In such cases normally people approach the vendors to install the operating system by removing the default partition and to create custom partitions as required.  This is one situation where we might accidently lost the OEM partition. In the second situation the Hard Disk come today is of nearly 1 TB by default, in that only one partition of the OS is built by the manufactures and the other one is Recovery Partition. If anyone wants to re partition the existing one, the recovery partition won't work in some cases as the MBR is changed with the new format and installation of the operating system.
