Re: selecting certificate for WPA
 
The certificate implementation for the N900 is completely useless it seems.

Under Configuration it just lists certificates, but there's no way of interacting with them, and after joining a WPA network using a Certificate, you can't choose the right certificate, or enter the required information, such as the address for a validation server.


So much for an Internet Device...

Re: selecting certificate for WPA
 
Is this really true? No way to use certiicates for WLAN?

I tried it today at my university for an eduroam connection. I was aware before buying the N900 that it can't do EAP-PAP. But hey, my university also supports PEAP + MSCHAPv2, so i thought no problem here. I installed the adequate cert and checked that it is listed in the certificate manager (beside many preinstalled certs). But when i configure the WLAN connection, it ist not possible to select any cert at all.

Please tell me that I have done something wrong. I'm a maemo and linux newbie and i always thought that even when something does not work out of the box, it is possible via console or something like that...

Thank you!

I'm not completely sure if it is the same problem you're having, but this helped me out:

Also, there seem to be a lof of related bug reports, e.g.:

Re: selecting certificate for WPA
 
did you guys ever figure this out? i'm still having this problem.

Edit: nevermind got it working. for future reference, i had to go into advanced settings and check 'enter manual user name' but not check 'require client authentication'
Other than that it was straightforward.
