I aggree to the fellows. The University of Groningen is asking for the WEP password. It doesn't really matter if you prepared the N900 for eduroam or not.

It seems that this due to the configuration they come up with. That is WEP + PAP...

Do we have any chance for a fix, maybe in the stable CSSU?

Would love to see it. It is so much more convient to sit next to an Iphone user and have internet. :p

Any feedback would be highly appreciated.

Thanks!

Eduroam works.

- You need PR1.2 and root access
- get the PAP GUI (https://bugs.maemo.org/attachment.cg...34&action=view)
- install .deb file from link above via a root (!!) prompt with:
dpkg -i wlantool_0.0.4_armel.deb

- now you will have the wlantool in your application launcher
- start it
- check the checkbox "Allow TTLS/PAP" and close wlantool
- now setup manually a new wifi connection with
Application Launcher -> Settings -> Connections -> New

- Select "next"
- Connection name could be "Eduroam" but it freely choosable
- Select "next"
- SSID is the Network ID of your wifi network (should be "eduroam")
Network Mode is "infrastructure"
Authentication Method is "WPA with EAP"
- Select "next"
- EAP-Type is TTLS
- Select "next"
- Certificate is usually not needed, but you need to make sure your certificate chain is complete. So if your university uses for example Telekom Root certificate it is included in PR1.2. If not, you have to install it (Download, click on it via File Manager)
- EAP Method is "EAP PAP" (now available thanks to wlantool)
- Select "next"
- Username is ... actually your username given by your network admin, same goes for password
- Select "next"
- Select "advanced" (I'm on german maemo, it may be called "more" or something like that)
- Select tab "EAP"
- Check the upper checkbox there
- Enter your outer anonymous identity in the textfield below
(anonymous@your-university.edu for example)
- Select "save"
- try it

Sorry if any descriptors are not exactly right. As I said, I'm on german maemo and translating this on the fly :)

Hi ionitacornell, I work in a company also use EAP-TTLS+PAP. They have detailed instruction for iphone, blackberry and android phones on how to connect to WIFI but not our beloved N900. I followed the steps in your post, a few things are slightly different:

My company uses a hidden network, so after putting the connection name in, if I choose to scan for network, I could not find the "hidden wifi".
We have our own SSID: ducu234
I checked "network is hidden" right beneath Entered SSID
And put in the "manual user name", such as: tom@intel.com
(I have tried all kinds of combination of above settings.)

everything else is the same as your post. But my N900 always want me to enter a WEP key, which I know for sure my company doesn't provide such thing. I tried 'guest', it didn't work.

What should I do???

The wireless network got just a new update. You can now easily connect to eduroam within the Rijksuniverseit Groningen, Neth. N900 will guide you through the process. Therefore the config maxximuscool posted can be used.

What a glorious day!!
