Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
Wireless WPA2 Enterprise (802.11x) works fine in an eduroam setting. But trying the same authentication for a wired connection it fails in some configuration step as stated in the log below. It's the exact same authentication information for either connection.
This is for the karmic version or the network-manager ppa. Both show the same error

Hi FrejSoya,
802.11x Authentification could only be used for non-wired connections.
