Hi all, I hope I am not thread-jacking (if so, please tell me and I will repost my problem) I am new to the list - just bought an N810 - having fun with it, but am experiencing some frustration with my work network (WPA 1/2 - Cisco WLAN with MS IAS RADIUS backend (PEAP MSCHAPv2)) - I can't connect to the network. I can connect to a guest SSID that is open (same access points broadcast multiple SSIDs), but I really need access to the secured WLAN. I have successfully connected to this same network using wpa_supplicant, so I know it is possible, but wpa_supplicant doesn't seem to (yet?) be available for OS2008 On Thu, 29 Nov 2007 00:13:41 +0200, Kalle Valo <Kalle.Valo at nokia.com> wrote: > "ext Frantisek Dufka" <dufkaf at seznam.cz> writes: > >> Bob Lees wrote: >>> OK looking into this slightly more, the wifi chip firmware appears to > be the >>> same for both os2007 and os2008.
