Comment 2 for bug 1418777

I can also confirm this bug. When I try to connect to the eduroam network by clicking on the corresponding wireless network, all I get is the dialog titled "Networking". There I can choose eduroam again by clicking on the "play" symbol (arrow to the right), then an activity indicator will appear and go on forever. No connection is made, I'm not even asked for credentials. I tested with a fresh install of 17.1 Cinnamon and the latest RC for LMDE Cinnamon.

Other wifi networks are fine.

I also tested with different hardware (builtin wifi adapter and 2 different USB adapters). Makes no difference.

The suggested workaround (selecting a hidden network, here of name "eduroam") works.
