Using EAP Authentication

If the PIN Is Stored on the Computer

Note
These instructions are applicable after profile selection, card ejection and re-insertion, reboot, or
logon.
If you chose to store the PIN in the computer's registry, the EAP authentication process begins
automatically and the client adapter should EAP authenticate and use the saved PIN to access the SIM
card.
Note
If the stored PIN is wrong and therefore rejected by the SIM, the EAP-SIM supplicant temporarily
changes the prompt mode to the default setting (Ask for my PIN once after I turn my computer on)
in order to prevent the SIM from locking up. Unless changed manually, this setting stays in effect
until your computer is powered off. Change your stored PIN on the SIM Authentication Properties
screen.
To verify authentication, double-click My Computer, Control Panel, and Network Connections. Click
View and Refresh to obtain the current status. The status appears to the right of your Wireless Network
Connection. If the client adapter is authenticated, the status reads, "Authentication succeeded."
ACU and the Windows Network Connection icon on the Windows XP taskbar may indicate a
Note
connection status when authentication is still in the pending state or the authentication server fails to
respond.
