The connection will fail due to the fake certificate Disable WiFi cd /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections sudo nano SSID #this is the name of the SSID ie eduroam Remove the lines : ca-cert=/path/to/random/certificate/randomcert.pem system-ca-certs=true save the file enable WiFi connect successfully Hope this helps someone -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1130326 Title: No Certificate Authority Certificate Dialog doesn't receive focus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/1130326/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
