Hello, There has been a change in the security at the University I work at, and where as before I could connect to the wireless network by simply typing in password and username (which I can still do with my Macbook Pro) connecting with Ubuntu 10.10 is defeating me. The netbook is finding and identifying the wireless network OK.
Selecting the network gives a pop up dialog and filling in the connection settings (as best I can) simply allows the connection details box to disappear and then re-appear a few seconds later. There are instructions available for Nokia S60 phones and Windows (but none for Linux). Taking the settings from the windows instructions, I have the following set up as a network connection Wireless tab: SSID: the network name Mode: infrastructure BSSID: blank MAC address: left blank MTU: automatic Wireless security: Security: WPA & WPA2 Enterprise Authentication: Protected EAP (PEAP) Anonymous identity: left blank CA Certificate: None (but windows instructions tell you to search for certficate and authenticate it, The Mac does this automatically) PEAP version: automatic inner authentication: MSCHAPv2 username; my username password: my password IPv4 settings: Automatic DHCP IPv6 settings: ignore The instruction for windows says to select WPA2, PEAP, uncheck authenticate as computer when computer information is available, uncheck fast reconnect, configure secure password (EAP-MSCHAPv2) to either domain account or local account, and to validate server certificate. I have been telling Ubuntu to ignore the certificate request, which from what I have read should still work. I would be very grateful if anyone can suggest what I should be trying to get connected. Many thanks, Graham
