Can't connect to school's WPA2 Enterprise Network

First off, I want to apologize as I'm using a burner account. I'm just uncomfortable about posting personal info like this online. I am trying to connect my laptop to my university's wpa2 enterprise network but am having some trouble. So far this year, I've just been using the guest network, but it is significantly slower and would finally like to get onto the main network. In the past, I have used nmtui to connect but from what I gather it can't connect to WPA2E. Ive taken a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Iwd#WPA_Enterprisee  but there isn't much there and I had some difficulty deciphering it for my situation. Therefore, I've tried using iwd with the following config file at /var/lib/iwd/RESNET-PROTECTED.8021x :

 
[Security]
EAP-Method=PEAP
EAP-PEAP-ServerDomainMask=ucsd.edu
EAP-PEAP-Phase2-Method=MSCHAPV2
EAP-PEAP-Phase2-Identity=MY_EMAIL@ucsd.edu
EAP-PEAP-Phase2-Password=MY_PASSWORD

[Settings]
AutoConnect=true

Next, I used iwctl to attempt to connect with:

$ iwctl
NetworkConfigurationEnabled: disabled
StateDirectory: /var/lib/iwd
Version: 1.27
[iwd]# station wlan0 connect RESNET-PROTECTED

Which returns:

 
Not configured

I noticed that when running iwctl, it says NetworkConfigurationEnabled: disabled. Is this my problem? If so is it a unit file i need to enable that I cant find? I borrowed a friends macbook to check my username and password, are correct which they are. I also took a screenshot with all the available info on the network from their computer:

I'm at a loss after this, thanks for any help!

That's gonna become a problem…

nmtui … iwctl

1st off, you'll have to settle on one method to connect to the network. Mulitple parralel approaches will fail for sure.
Are you trying to use iwd to being with or are you using networkmanager - and iff the latter: on the iwd or wpa_supplciant backend?

Ideally post a complete system journal (sudo journalctl -b) …

Re: Can't connect to school's WPA2 Enterprise Network

Thanks for the response! I have not configured my networkmanager to use IWD as a backend. Would you recommend I switch to IWD altogether or use IWD as the backend? If its the former, would removing NetworkManager.service and running sudo pacman -R network manager be enough? I'll try setting up the IWD in the meantime as that seems less destructive. By the way, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Networ … n_with_iwd says that networkmanager with the wpa-supplicant backend can't handle WPA2 Enterprise. Heres my journalctl -b output: https://pastebin.com/JB742uZS By the way, if there's any info you need that you think I'll have trouble sharing, I'll figure out a way to make it work, thanks!

Re: Can't connect to school's WPA2 Enterprise Network

The log shows that iwd and wpa_supplicant are running at the same time. You should choose one and uninstall the other.

Re: Can't connect to school's WPA2 Enterprise Network

In addition, what's "wifi_service"?
The only (networkmanager) connetion attempts in that journal are w/ RESNET-GUEST-DEVICE on 2.4 and 5 GHz while afaiu the troublesome is RESNET-PROTECTED

By the way, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Networ … n_with_iwd says that networkmanager with the wpa-supplicant backend can't handle WPA2 Enterprise.

That's not at all what that section says.
As a matter of fact: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Networ … ss#eduroam

Whether you end up iwd or wpa_supplicant either w/ or w/o NM is a personal choice, but you'll have to settle for one and configure it correctly.
Only if there're very specific problems w/ even a proper configuration you need to consider to switch manager or backends.

Re: Can't connect to school's WPA2 Enterprise Network

Thanks for the response. Firstly, the wifi_service executable is the script started by a unit file called "wifi_fix.service". I made this as a fix to an issue I was having with systemd failing to rename my interface names so I just made this script to run at shutdown, which I don't think would impact this situation:

#!/usr/bin/bash
sudo rm /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules
sudo ln -s /dev/null /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules

Sorry for the misunderstanding, I was confused by another article which I thought stated wpa_supplicant was not able to handle enterprise networks. Just to clarify, RESNET-GUEST-DEVICE is the network I've been using which is far slower than the enterprise network, RESNET-PROTECTED. I've switched to an iwd backend and used https://iwd.wiki.kernel.org/networkmana … k_profiles to convert my network profiles to iwd. However, I tried uninstalling wpa_supplicant but got the following output:

$ sudo pacman -R wpa_supplicant 
checking dependencies...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: removing wpa_supplicant breaks dependency 'wpa_supplicant' required by networkmanager

How can I uninstall wpa_supplicant while keeping networkmanager?

Re: Can't connect to school's WPA2 Enterprise Network

Quick update, I ended up running

systemctl disable wpa_supplicant

and rebooted. As I am still using networkmanager, just with an iwd backend, I am still using nmcli to try and connect but when I try to get on to RESNET-PROTECTED, I get:

$ nmcli device wifi connect RESNET-PROTECTED 
Error: Failed to add/activate new connection: Failed to determine AP security information

Through iwctl, I still get the same error:

$ iwctl
NetworkConfigurationEnabled: disabled
StateDirectory: /var/lib/iwd
Version: 1.27
[iwd]# station wlan0 connect RESNET-PROTECTED 
Not configured

Re: Can't connect to school's WPA2 Enterprise Network

I'm still trying to figure out a solution, but I have another update.  After some tinkering, when trying to connect, I get

$ nmcli device wifi connect RESNET-PROTECTED

Examining my journalctl output, I got

However I couldn't find info about the error online, any ideas?

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Iwd#WPA_Enterprise
Your school issued you a certificate? You'll have to point iwd to it if it's out of path somewhere on your drive.
However, afaiu https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 9#p1999149 NM *should* allow you to configure this properly, but you'll probably have to move the handwritten config out of the way

Re: Can't connect to school's WPA2 Enterprise Network

Unfortunately, my school doesn't provide certificates. However, according to the iwd website its optional, but encouraged. I actually already ran across that post and tried deleting my previous config and going through nm-connection-editor. Which resulted in the outcome in my previous update. I there any way I can get more info for why its failing?

If you have no certificate you have to remove the ServerDomainMask as well.

By the way, your school should really provide a certificate or a certificate authority to use. Some android phones require it. https://www.securew2.com/blog/android-1 … -solution/
If you use networkmanager with iwd, you have to manually create the profile. As described in the wiki, nm-connection-editor does not work for iwd with wpa2 enterprise.

Re: Can't connect to school's WPA2 Enterprise Network

My apologies for the confusion, I went to my network administrators and a couple things changed. First off, they had more experience with wpa_supplicant so I completely removed iwd and will stick to wpa_supplicant. Now, I'm actually able to authenticate the network and the administrator showed that I was in fact connected to the network. However, the main problem now is that I cant actually access the internet. when I try and ping any site, I get the standard "ping: google.com: Temporary failure in name resolution" error.  Additionally, I was able to get a certificate which is stored at ~/.certificates/auth.ucsd.edu.cer. Below is my wpa_supplicant config file:

network={
  ssid="RESNET-PROTECTED"
  scan_ssid=1
  key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
  identity=MY USERNAME
  password=MY PASSWORD
  eap=TTLS
  auth_alg=OPEN
  phase2="autheap=MSCHAPV2"
}

Then I run the following command which gives me this output.

$ sudo wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c ~/.config/network_backup/wpa_supplicant/wpa_suplicant.conf

Because this worked, I went ahead and copied the  file  RESNET-PROTECTED.nmconnection to /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ and tried to connect with nmcli:

$ nmcli device wifi connect RESNET-PROTECTED 
Error: Failed to add/activate new connection: Failed to determine AP security information

I have no idea why it works on the same laptop with ubuntu but not on Arch. If anyone has any ideas I'd really appreciate it. Here's the copied RESNET-PROTECTED.nmconnection file:

Re: Can't connect to school's WPA2 Enterprise Network

The problem has completely changed now, I assume you can "ping 8.8.8.8" or "ping _gateway"?
If so, your DNS config is broken, if you do not receive a resolver via DHCP, configure a static one.

If this doesn't help you, please open a new thread on this. Feel free to link it here.

Wpa_supplicant only gets you half way there, you'll need to run dhcpcd or some other dhcp client.
