I think you might have just replied to me and not the list.

My suggestion would be to try the La Trobe helpdesk.. Even though the settings are the same they may have some insight.

Dear All

Sorry I have been away for a bit, work got in the way. Back to the problem.

The computer network that is giving problems is Eduroam at La Trobe University.

The computer that is giving problems is a Samsung N150 netbook.

The operating system is a fully updated version of the latest LTS release of Ubuntu running Gnome

The computer will connect perfectly happily to a 3Com router in staff accommodation so ultimately connecting to the university network and to 3Com, Billion and Netgear routers at friends places. The only other system it refuses to connect to is Skymesh at mother in laws.

I have a Lenovo with the same version of Ubuntu on it also fully updated which connects just fine. So far as I can see the settings are the same on both boxes.

WPA2 Enterprise
Protected EAP
CA Certificate none
PEAP version automatic
Inner authentication MSCHAPv2

Either I am overlooking something simple in the settings or there is some voodoo I really don't understand.

Could be many things..

For example some business wifi gear will deauth your client if you are connected to 2.4ghz and it knows you support 5ghz, or if it wants you to load balance to another AP.. And if your OS just gives up instead of trying another nearby AP then that's too bad..

I would look at bios on your linux machine.

I had a similar problem and was carrying multiple laptops with me just because of this issue. Bios update eventually fixed the issue.

If would be great to know what distro you are running and what laptop you are using. Perhaps there is a separate issue at hand...

Does any have an idea why I can connect the the work Wifi with Windows and Ipad but Linux will not establish a connection. It seems to be perfectly normal with WPA2 encryption.

I don't know where to look to solve this one there is nothing wrong with the Wifi on the computer it connects just fine at home or at friends.
