Trying to connect to campus wifi
 
I've just started uni and have been trying to connect my N800 to the uni network. The N800 gives me the options to input all the data types with the exception of choosing a certificate. How do I set a certificate so that it can be used in the wlan config. I went into the certificate manager and checked the box for wlan but that didn't make any difference. Is there a command line way of doing it?

Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

What does the University IT guys say? What kind of wifi system are they using?

They use novell netware for their server. The IT guys says they don't officially support linux. I can set up everything but can't select the appropriate certifcate in the n800 connection manager.

My university had detailed instructions on how to connect to our university wifi and i used them to configure the certifacte manger also. It was pretty cool.... just follow the instrucitons (generally given for windows)

This issue is I have installed certificate in manager and enabled wifi checkbox in manager but it doesn't come up in configuration settings.

Right, but what do they use for wifi?

WPA-PEAP with MSCHAP2 authentication and some weird proxy.

Weird, probably doesn't help, but there's another post here about the same thing. They couldn't get it to work either.
