Bug Description
(Sorry I'm a noob with Ubuntu)
Ok so I'm trying to connect to my university network which uses WPA2 PEAP and TKIP (this is done easily in Windows XP). Every time I try and connect to it on my broadcom card I get the prompt for username and password, hit OK, and then the entire system freezes requiring a hard reboot. I can connect to the unsecured wifi network fine.
-Ubuntu 8.10
-Pavilion dv6646us
-Broadcom bcm4328? wifi card (on the drivers that ubuntu defaults to)
Others at my school have gotten it to work outlined here: http://
I've tried the wpa_supplicant.conf suggestion in post number 12 but that didn't help (no .conf file even existed in /etc/ until i created it.
