I'm a very new Linux user, I switched from Win7 and quickly fell in love with Linux Mint 17
It works perfectly at home but when I took it to school this past week, I've been unable to get a working connection, I've been through numerous websites searching for an answer but to no avail.
The issue is, that my internet perfectly connects to my school network, but I get no internet access. I tried deleting the system ca-certs)=true, but I couldn't find it in the editor, everything else was in its correct place but no ca-certs=true.
Talking to our IT consultant yielded no results, as she only said ''If linux is incompatible with wpa2 enterprise then there is nothing to be done'' But I am sure that some brilliant people in here can help me out.
I am pretty sure that the problem has something to do with certificates, but since Linux is relatively taboo in Denmark I am sure my school hasn't taken any precaution in providing Certificates to linux in a practical way, as it works perfectly for Windows and Mac systems.
The network settings are as follows:
Security:WPA&WPA2 Enterprise
Authentication:PEAP
Anonymus: Identity: *My Username here* (I found forums suggesting writing my username here, and some to leave it empty but both didn't work)
Ca Crtificate: None (I tried the Ca-certificates file in the default linux system but it didnt work.)
PEAP version: automatic.
Inner Authentication: MSCHAPc2
Username: *My username*
Password: *My Password*
I would greatly appreciate if there is a functional solution to this, as I would love being able to use Linux Mint to its full potential at school.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Issue with WPA2 Enterprise in my school.
Is there a certificate issued by the school to use?

You might be able to connect using Linux Mint 13 as I think this is a recent problem
