It took me about three days last time I tried it, several years ago. I'm in the process of trying it again, I believe (!) that I have FreeRADIUS and the certificates right, now I'm trying to get both the enthusiasm and the time to finish it. I had a try at installing certificates on a stretch netbook using Network Manager, but the 'save' button stayed greyed out, and no, it wouldn't tell me why. I'll probably try it on a Windows laptop, with more confidence of it working. And I know that my Cisco router has a bug around the RADIUS configuration. I can't recall what it is, but I found a workaround before so I'll probably manage it again. It manifests itself by (silently) not sending anything to the server. Great. But plug and play? No way. 'Fiendishly difficult'? Mmmmm, I'll tell you that after I've got it working. -- Joe
