Until this bug is fixed, here is what you have to do in order to connect
to your ttls/pap wifi network :
- disable network management
- create wpa_supplicant.conf containing :
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
#ctrl_interface_group=wheel.
ctrl_interface_group=0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
network={
ssid="eduroam"
proto=WPA2 WPA
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
pairwise=CCMP TKIP
group=CCMP TKIP
eap=TTLS
#ca_cert="supply it and uncomment this line if you have it"
anonymous_identity="your anonymous identity (CHANGE THIS)"
phase2="auth=PAP"
identity="your login (CHANGE THIS)"
password="your password (CHANGE THIS)"
}
- don't forget to change anonymous_identity, identify and password
- sudo rfkill unblock all ("sudo rfkill unblock wifi" might work as well)
- sudo wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -D wext -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -d
- sudo dhclient wlan0

Title:
WiFi does not connect to WPA2-Enterprise network with TTLS and PAP
auth
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Bug report:
Attempting to connect to the campus WiFi network under a clean install of
Ubuntu 13.10 fails.
The network environment is set up using WPA2-Enterprise with TTLS and PAP
authentication.
There is no CA certificate for clients to install, students and faculty are
instructed to set their hardware to ignore the nonexistence of a CA cert.
My hardware is a Lenovo G780, the internal network card is a Broadcom BCM4313
I get the same behavior using a USB WiFi dongle by Belkin that I've had
working on Ubuntu previous, so it's not just the Broadcom card giving the issue.
Probably important:
++ On this same hardware running Ubuntu 12.04, I could connect to the campus
WiFi network.
++ Checking the system logs, I can verify that the WiFi card is associating
with the access point for the network. It fails somewhere during authentication.
++ I have the same behavior with a USB WiFi dongle known to work with Ubuntu
- that's a belkin that I've got to work on plenty of other setups. I'm pretty
sure it's NetworkManager with the error since the same behavior happens on the
Broadcom internal chip on my laptop, and the Belkin WiFi USB dongle.
