Howdy all. I am looking into getting one of these wonderful little N800s you all seem to like.

But first I need to find out if it can work on the wifi network at my school. Here is a link to the page that describes what is needed to connect to the wifi. I have pasted some of it here. I am looking for a turn it on autoconnect setup, ideally running an alternative window manager (ROX or kde or whatever works, mostly to impress Linux geek friends). But really the most important thing is that the wifi works.

Encryption: WPA Radius with TKIP key exchange
Authentication: 802.1x with PEAP and MSCHAPv2
SSID: osuwireless

for WPA supplicant:

Code:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1

network={
ssid="osuwireless"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
eap=PEAP
identity="your-username"
password="your-password"
phase1="peaplabel=0"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
priority=1 }

So, is there hope for me? I know that lesser devices can connect with a good bit of trouble (the palm TX is a b*tch to get working, but it does eventually) and the iPhone that everyone is going to come back to school with doesn't work at all!

Also, a quickie, does Google Docs work? (mozilla based browser?)
