both seem to be a school network

The problem is that this is not "normal" authentication WPA works perfectly in Linux
This means I can't get any experience with it - have to rely entirely on google
Does this help?

Hi !

Hello, I have the same problem. Its an eduroam network, protected with 802.1x authentication, and I can't connect, it returns to the login screen.
Meanwhile, all Ubuntu laptops around me can connect, while I only get frustrated
Thanks in advance.

This is interesting as Mint is based on Ubuntu ?

How are the Ubuntu users connecting ?
What tools are they using ?
Do you not have the same funtionality in Mint ?

Let us know, we may be able to help you round this one.

Mike.

Felicia XFCE
I can't experiment with wifi there as I don't have it installed on a computer with wifi
On Felicia main there is an option for tkip - it's just not called tkip
I use WPA Preshared key and TKIP on my wireless (one XP and one Mint laptop) and I have Elyssa main, Felicia KDE and Felicia main with mint4win all working fine
I might install XFCE on it to check but time is in short supply
I think the option you should use is called something with Personal in it
I'll ask merlwiz79 about this

I could not follow you in the post above
Can you connect without the certificate?

[Husse]

I'll ask miket to look at this again - I have no experience with certificates in this respect

Hi !

This is an old problem that seems to have risen again ??
The explanation and fix is detailed here :

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... bug/107321

It may also be worth trying wicd instead of nm-applet (The default Gnome network manager) as it seems
to be far more reliable

I had the same issue here with my Lenovo T420s and Mint 16 Petra.
Found a solution based on a nice hint in this bug history:

Remove the line that I marked (line 20) , to fix it
This is an example of my NetworkManager profile.
This file is saved under /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/

Code: Select all

lnx ~ $ sudo cat /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/wlan-bla

eap=peap;

anonymous-identity=bla
#ca-cert=/home/gans/Documents/bla.cer

#system-ca-certs=true

Uncommenting the two lines made it work.
Looks like the "system-ca-certs=true" is always configured by network-manager regardles if you want or not....

Hope that help you too?
