I have Android pet-project DroidIn which utilizes HttpClient 4 (built into Android) to do some form based authentication. I started noticing that people who are using WiFi are reporting connection problems. It also doesn’t help that site I’m accessing has self-assigned certificate. Well – the question is (I’m quite vague on WiFi details) If WiFi at the hotspot doesn’t support HTTPS would that be a good enough reason for connection to fail and is there anything that I can do beside proxying into another appserver using HTTP which then would call HTTPS site?

    wifi is just a low level protocol, you are dealing with HTTP & TCP/IP which is unaware of wifi.
    So you can ignore the fact that you are using wifi, just try to see if the server is accessible from the client side. (try a telnet on the https port which is 443 by default)
