Cannot connect to WPA2/WPA Enterprise (PEAP and MSCHAP)
I cannot connect to my campus Wi-Fi connection through Ubuntu 13.04 but I can do the same through Windows.
[ 1293.944518] wlan0: authenticate with 00:1a:1e:d5:f0:30
[ 1293.953216] wlan0: send auth to 00:1a:1e:d5:f0:30 (try 1/3)
[ 1294.154557] wlan0: send auth to 00:1a:1e:d5:f0:30 (try 2/3)
[ 1294.358428] wlan0: send auth to 00:1a:1e:d5:f0:30 (try 3/3)
[ 1294.562357] wlan0: authentication with 00:1a:1e:d5:f0:30 timed out
The same thing keeps occurring.
Solution 1:
I had the same problem, but I found a solution in this bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1104476 (post 19)
Removing "system-ca-certs=true" from /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections may solve your problem.
Solution 2:
In Ubuntu 16.04 LTS:
- Click on the Wi-Fi icon on the rigth corner and click "Edit Connections..."
- Select your Wi-Fi network (eduroam) and click "Edit"
- Click "Wi-Fi Security" tab
- Set Authentication to "Protected EAP (PEAP)"
- Tick "No CA certificate is required"
- Set PEAP Version to "Automatic"
- Set Inner Authentication to "MSCHAPv2"
- Type your username and password
- Click "Save"
You should be able to connect now. Editing the file in system-connections folder did not work for me.
Solution 3:
I noticed that there aren't any lines like system-ca-certs=true
in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/<SSID>
, so I resolved in this way:
- Turn off WiFi
- Add on a new line
system-ca-certs=false
- Turn on WiFi (the line will be deleted automatically)
