I'm running MLED 64bit on my laptop and used to be able to connect to the universities wireless system, ie eduroam. However without changes to the config itself suddenly this has stopped working and I'm at a complete loss how to fix this as there is nothing obviously different and no hints visible in the logs.
Hopefully someone can point me in the correct direction as I've reached the point that I see no other solution then a complete reinstall.
Observations:
1) After I last connected successfully to eduroam I installed the following list of packages, from which nothing stands out to me as potential culprit.

2) Connecting to wireless at home on the same laptop works without issues.
3) Booting into a SystemrescueCD from USB on that same laptop allows me to connect to eduroam, proofing it is a problem at my end.
4) The only clear difference in the logs is in the wpa_supplicant logs:
- successful
Code:
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-REGDOM-CHANGE init=COUNTRY_IE type=COUNTRY alpha2=GB
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-STARTED EAP authentication started
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PROPOSED-METHOD vendor=0 method=25 -> NAK
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PROPOSED-METHOD vendor=0 method=21
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-METHOD EAP vendor 0 method 21 (TTLS) selected
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PEER-CERT ...snip...
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PEER-CERT ...snip...
EAP-TTLS: Phase 2 MSCHAPV2 authentication succeeded
- unsuccessful
Code:
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-STARTED EAP authentication started
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-REGDOM-CHANGE init=COUNTRY_IE type=COUNTRY alpha2=GB
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PROPOSED-METHOD vendor=0 method=25 -> NAK
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PROPOSED-METHOD vendor=0 method=21
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-METHOD EAP vendor 0 method 21 (TTLS) selected
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PEER-CERT ...snip...
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-PEER-CERT ...snip...
wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-EAP-FAILURE EAP authentication failed
The removed hash details from the above log-snippets are identical. The noticeable difference is that in the failed attempt no mention is made of connecting using MSCHAPV2 authentication which it is supposed to do.
Does this trigger any thoughts?
