Passwords or Encryption keys are required to access the Wifi-Network after manual ip change
Howdy,
I am attempting to connect to my Uni's Wifi network which I have previously had no issues doing. My university provided this image. It is worth to note that I am running parrot linux (a debian based distro) but connectivity using this method has worked fine in the past. My issue is, when I attempt to connect to the network, using my given credentials, even after password resets, I am greeted by the message "Passwords or Encryption keys are required to access the Wifi-Network" which I assume is the equalivalent of "Incorrect credentials". However, when I attempt to log in on my phone, again using the same credentials, it works fine and I am unrestricted. (Galaxy S8) My thoughts on this concern so far:
After getting done with the PS4 communication server, which was locally hosted, I tried resetting my IP back to it's original value and even flushing the networking service to no avail. Also worth nothing any other network that requires just a plain password has no issue connecting. Final notes: If this does not belong in this thread I will gladly delete / move it. I quickly skimmed this article and they seemed to have a similar problem, posting in the same section. I realize this is most likely going to be network specific as my phone works, but I wanted to explore every possible avenue prior to making a fool of myself in front of the IT department. Thank you all for your time! |
My 2 cents? This is a question for the university support desk.
Don't worry about looking a fool. To a support desk, everyone is a fool :) |

simplest troubleshooting:
have you tried booting your laptop (i presume) with another more vanilla linux distro? and, obvious question: what happened between now and then? |
