Hi all, just thought I would share my long awaited success with connecting my ubuntu laptop up to my universities (University of Western Sydney) wireless network. The rumors appeared true and they have finally implemented 802.11x authentication instead of that horrible java app netdirect im sure you've been cursing at its erratic stability.
There is no linux documentation for airUWS-Lite nor anything more imformative than there windows/mac point and click steps found at http://www.uws.edu.au/campuses_struc...sk/fact_sheets
However with a few simple clicks you can have stable working connection.
When connecting make sure you have theses settings.
Security: WPA & WPA2 Enterprise
Authentication: Protected EAP (PEAP) #This is the settings that does not present itself correctly
Anonymous Identity: leave blank
PEAP Version: Automatic
Inner Authentication: MSCHAPv2
Username: <YOUR 8 DIGIT STUDENT NUMBER>
Password: your regular password
Enjoy
