I don't know if it helps, but I will share my experiences with eduroam on PR 1.2. My institution uses WPA with EAP(TTLS) with inner PAP authentication and needs a GTE certificate.
You need to enable TTLS/PAP by downloading WLAN Tool from http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...1&postcount=13 and then enable the setting through the tools interface and reboot.
If a certificate is need download it and install it on the device.
Next comes setting up the connection. This has to be done manually, my setting are dumped below. There are a few things that confused me, firstly you can not select the appropriate certificate from the dropdown box, but this does not matter as the correct one is automatically selected. Secondly in the advanced settings section I had to supply the EAP username which is not yours but a anonymous identity.

Connection name: Eduroam
Connection type: WLAN
Network name (SSID): eduroam
Network is hidden: [ ]
Network mode: Infrastructure
Security method: WPA with EAP
EAP type: TTLS
Select certificate: None
EAP method: EAP PAP
Username: (user@domain)
Password: (password)
Prompt password at every login: [ ]
Advanced/EAP
Use manual user name: [×]
Manual user name: (anonymous@domain)

PradaBrada and others, I hope this helps. I would find out exactly what authentication protocols your institution uses and the anonymous username if needed. Oh and yes the non-connectivity bug is very annoying.

Hy substance33,

I've used the exact same settings, I am sure that the University of Groningen is using TTLS-PAP security, I've activated it using the WLAN tool, I've installed the certificate they provide for linux platforms, available here http://www.rug.nl/rechten/faculteit/...nux_man_wpasup , but when I select to connect to eduroam over here, it still asks for the WEP key. I don't know exactly the anonymous username required. I've tried "anonymous", "anonymous@rug.nl" and "anonymous@student.rug.nl".

Here is the wpa_supplicant.conf file they are using for linux:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0

update_config=1
eapol_version=1
fast_reauth=1

network={
ssid="RuG-FN2"
scan_ssid=0
mode=0
eapol_flags=3
id_str="rug"
key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
auth_alg=OPEN
eap=TTLS
identity="p<number>@staff.rug.nl" (or s<number>@student.rug.nl)
anonymous_identity="anonymous"
password="<password>"
ca_cert="/etc/certs/ca.pem"
phase2="auth=PAP"
}

RuG_FN2 and eduroam are the same thing.
Could you help me with this? Thank you!

Also, i have tried to connect directly to the saved connection through the dbus-send --print-reply --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.icd /com/nokia/icd com.nokia.icd.connect string:"86ca9d79-120d-496f-9d42-e239e5c7f430" uint32:0 code, of course after I found the IAP with gconftool --all-dirs /system/osso/connectivity/IAP and it says
Error com.nokia.icd.error.iap_not_available: Failed to establish requested IAP

Hope to solve it soon...

And of course, if anyone else can help me, I am happy to try anything...
Btw, I am sure that I copied the IAP correctly.

Hmm,
It sounds like a problem with wpa_supplicant.conf or it may be this bug. Are there any messages in the log?
Also have you created a profile with the wizard? If so can you dump the variables in a post.

About the anonymous username .etc, this is only for Eduroam not RUG NET (I think), it looks like they employ different settings.

These are the settings from the profile I created with the wizzard?
Connection name: eduroam
Connection type: WLAN
SSID: eduroam
Network is hidden [ ]
Network mode: Infrastructure
Security method: WPA with EAP
EAP type: TTLS
Select certificate: None
EAP method: EAP PAP
Username: s205****@student.rug.nl
Password: ************
Prompt password at every login: [ ]
Advanced:> EAP> Use manual user name: [x]
Manual user name: anonymous

Also tried Use manual user name: [x]
Manual user name: anonymous@student.rug.nl ; anonymous@rug.nl; s205*****@student.rug.nl ;

Also tried Use manual user name: [ ]
Manual user name: _______________

I couldn't connect dirrectly through the terminal, see previous post.
When I tap the status bar> Internetion connection> eduroam, it just asks for a WEP key.
It's not the bug you mentioned.

I've just asked the guy from IT Service and he said that the WEP layer is an extra-protection layer. Windows computers need extra-software to be able to access the network, Apple computers can be configured without any software and Linux needs the wpa_supplicant.conf which I listed in a post above.

I had previously installed Auto-Disconnect and WiFi Switcher, but I uninstalled both of them... Still not able to connect.
I would try the following: reset the WLAN adapter (I am noob, so don't know what code to use in the X-Terminal, couldn't find it on the web).
Also I am now trying to find a way to bypass the first WEP layer so the phone goes directly to the second WPA layer.

Another thing I tried, but with no success:
Actually created wpa_supplicant folder in /etc and copied the wpa_supplicant.conf to the folder. Did this by running gpe-filemanager in x-terminal with rootsh: rootsh gpe-filemanager.
I even installed the linux certificate ca.pem they provide on the website. No difference.

Any opinions?
Thank you!
I still cannot connect

Only found some ways to crack a WEP network, a bit difficult, haven't tried... There is no WEP key for accesing the network, so it would be no use...

Furthermore, I used gconftool -R /system/osso/connectivity/IAP
to find the IAP and try again to connect directly. It displays the configuration details of the saved connection. And instead of "EAP_PAP_username" it displays "EAP_MSCHAPV2_username". This is truly strange. Again, in the settings wizard it is configured as WPA with EAP, TTLS, EAP PAP.
Any ideas?

Furthermore, when I try to connect to any saved connections, through dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.icd /com/nokia/icd com.nokia.icd.connect string:"[ANY]" uint32:0
, it says that "No saved connections available".

I'm completely out of ideas...

I just did this for eduroam at my University, and it worked! Does anyone know what "manual user name" means? How is this different from the username manually entered in the other place?

I have eduroam working, but it won't autoconnect.
While searching this problem, I found this.

Can anyone with more compiling-skills please compile this? I don't know if it will help, but worth a try I reckon...

Thanks
