Public bug reported: I have a IBM T42p laptop with Atheros wireless card. My office uses wireless with LEAP/IEEE8021X authentication. I configured knetworkmanager to connect to the SSID but, it just says trying to connect. The SSID is not hidden. But if I try to connect to the same wireless setting via wpa_supplicant, it connects. But when I try to connect at home with a WPA personal authentication with TPIK, it is able to connect without any problme.
To connect to wireless within my office, I use the following command. # sudo wpa_cli terminate # sudo wpa_supplicant -Bw -i ath0 -D madwifi -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf #sudo killall dhclient3 # sudo dhclient3 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=0 ap_scan=1 update_config=1 network={ ssid="xxx" scan_ssid=1 key_mgmt=WPA-EAP eap=LEAP identity="my_user_name" password="password" } network={ ssid="xxx" scan_ssid=1 key_mgmt=IEEE8021X eap=LEAP identity="my_user_name" password="password" } [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ifconfig ath0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:05:4e:4f:65:12 inet addr:9.45.189.45 Bcast:9.45.189.255 Mask:255.255.254.0 inet6 addr: fe80::205:4eff:fe4f:6512/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:27183 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:21098 errors:16 dropped:16 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:20240691 (19.3 MB) TX bytes:3751351 (3.5 MB) eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0d:60:d0:af:f4 UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:44120 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:36456 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:34258845 (32.6 MB) TX bytes:5749710 (5.4 MB) Base address:0x8000 Memory:c0240000-c0260000 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:1573 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1573 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:88920 (86.8 KB) TX bytes:88920 (86.8 KB) wifi0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-05-4E-4F-65-12-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:337112 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:45518 TX packets:25898 errors:17 dropped:16 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:199 RX bytes:89597137 (85.4 MB) TX bytes:4851481 (4.6 MB) Interrupt:11 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available.
