The local help is not great. I'm told my browser should "automatically" point me to a page where I enter the username and the password. For starters I'm not familiar with username/password for wireless authentication. My /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf* files either point to a cert file, and use identity/password, or are just: network={ ssid="..." psk="..." } How can this work with a username/password pair? When I use ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP WPA" I cannot connect. If I use just ifconfig_wlan0="DHCP" I can connect to the AP, and get the ip address, but cannot connect anywhere else. I guess they are using some weird MS only setup? Anything else I can try to get connected? Thanks Anton
