Bug Description

I cannot connect to a WPA2 Enterprise PEAP encrypted network,

This seems to be related to the following bug, which is marked as fixed, however as I still have the issue (and have backport updated enabled) I'm submitting this bug report following the instructions in the bottom post.

See if "iwconfig wlan0 power off" fixes the problem (until reboot).

Hey Thomas, the wireless power management is already turned off, as can be seen in the IwConfig.txt attached to the bug report and running that command again does not aleviate the problem.

The laptop is connected to AC power, and I have tried all the solutions from bug #548992 to no avail.

The details differ but it's interesting to compare bug #610084.

Gah, I feel like a bit of a tool. Turns out the password was incorrect.
I was using the dmesg output to trace the error, which made no mention of failure to authenticate.
Looks like I should be checking syslog instead.

Thanks for your help Thomas! Looks like there is no bug after all!
