Connecting to 802.1x encrypted Wifi

My school has campus-wide wifi that is encrypted using 802.1x enterprise encryption and I can't get my N1 to connect to it. Under the wifi settings the network shows up in range, but it shows up as a WEP wifi connection which isn't the case. I can manually add a connection and choose 802.1x and configure it as it should in order to connect, however when I do that it shows up at the bottom of the list as "Not in range, remembered" despite the fact that the SSID of the same name still shows up as that incorrect WEP encrypted connection.
Has anyone successfully connected to a 802.1x encrypted connection using their N1?

Do you need to install a security cert?
My N1 doesn't arrive until tomorrow, and I haven't tried connecting to my current school's wireless network. My last school had enterprise security, and I had to install a certificate on my laptop, and special software on my Windows mobile.
If no one else gets back to you, I'll see if I can screw around tomorrow evening.
Some googlin' brought up some maybe relevant info:

I am using a stock Nexus One on Android 2.2. I got it running by entering the following (be sure to 'FORGET' the SSID that automatically comes up in favour of manually creating it) at 'Settings' >> WiFI:
EAP method: (I can choose b.w. PEAP, TLS or TTLS) and I choose PEAP
CA certificate: no choice … merely shows in brackets (unspecified)
User certificate: (unspecified)
Identity: (I enter) [MY-USERNAME, e.g., [email protected]]
Anonymous identity: (leave blank)
Password: [MY_PASSWORD]
Our university relies on WPA2/EAP/MS-CHAP .... but in our case putting the entire username did the trick.
I believe the Android 2.1 UI is deficient and will not let you enter the above, and from what I have read those who have 'rooted' their phone (and voided their warranty) have placed something like the following wpa_supplicant.conf file in /etc/wifi :
##### wpa_supplicant configuration file template #####
update_config=1
ctrl_interface=eth0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
Network={
ssid="MY_SSID"
key_mgmt=IEEE8021X
eap=PEAP
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
identity="MY_USERNAME"
password="MY_PASSWORD"
}
Some have mentioned that any certificate (e.g., Thawte) should be .p12 configuration and placed in the root directory of the SD Card. The best info for those who want to 'root' their Nexus one is Joe Levi's commentary at: http://pocketnow.com/tweaks-hacks/video-flashing-froyo-on-your-nexus-one
But as I stated, I have mine running the Net locally, and just need the proxy turned off by the uni. to get out.
Hope this helps.

I'm having the same issue at work. It appears as a WEP network and adding it as 802.1x says the network is not in range.
I'll give that wpa_supplicant.conf hack a go later.

I solved this issue, with the WiFi Advanced Config Editor (available in the marketplace)
my WIFI is 802.1x, with PEAP,MSCHAP v2
connect to the listed wifi with wep enabled, use any password
then modify the configuration with the WiFi Advanced Config Editor set as 802.1x, PEAP, MSCHAP v2, set user identity and password remove and remove any WAP settings
a enjoy

In my case, i have ICS 4.0, i try all suggestions above, but not work.
Someone can help me? Please

Bluetooth Tethering

I am wondering if this method also goes through the same authentication process via the SIMcard like wifi tethering does?
So is it as readily trackable as wifi tethering?

It is looks like Bluetooth PAN not detectible yet but I can't guaranty that. It use absolutely different way and embedded tethering application ignore Bluetooth PAN as not tetherable interface.
Code:
Tethering: bnep0 is not a tetherable iface, ignoring
In addition, Bluetooth PAN can work on original ROM (if verizon network in your area are provided IPv4 DNS addresses only) without any modifications (it would use 100% CPU but it work) and It does not requesting any additional service options from Verizon. And only bugs in DNSMASQ prevent Bluetooth PAN usage in stock ROM with IPv6 DNS address

[Q] Wifi Hotspot not working (DNS Problem)

Hello All,
Internet is not working on my laptop when I use my Incredible S's WIFI Hotspot. Connection is ok with following IPs:
Laptop IP: 192.168.1.80
DHCP Server IP: 192.168.1.1
DNS Server IP: 192.168.1.1
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
When I use USB tethering everything goes fine but when I use WIFI Hotspot, internet doesnot work. I configured that my Laptop is unable to get the DNS resolution from my mobile as I can still connect Skype on my laptop.
I cannot ping www.google.com but if I can put the direct IP of google server (like 173.194.34.164) I get the ping response. This means my DNS server is having problems in resolving web addresses for my laptop.
I am using stock ICS 4.0.4.
Please help

[Q] EAP Authentication FTL CM11

While I was running the FTL CM11 build from 11/19, I attempted to connect to my schools WiFi which uses EAP authentication. I encountered a problem where I would not be able to connect to a network behind EAP, but could successfully connect to an open WiFi network. I have confirmed that EAP does work in TripNDroid however.

Can't connect to both Cell data and Local Adhoc Wifi website

Have a Nexus 6 Rooted; Android 7.0 Stock and attempting to:
1) Stay Connected to cellular data
2) Connect via WiFi to Local Ad-Hock Network ( DHCP); "SharedData"
3)Access both WWWeb sites via browser, and the local webserver on the local WiFi ad-hock network ( @ DHCP 192.168.4.1 on SSID "SharedData")
*Constraint: Can not change webserver from current IP scheme which is
SSID: "SharedData"
BSSID: f4:55:95:11:3a:3f
Lease duration: 86400
Server address: 192.168.4.1
Broadcast address: 192.168.4.255
DNS(1) address: 192.168.4.1
DNS(2) address: 0.0.0.0
Mask: 0.0.0.0
Gateway: 192.168.4.1
IF the Cell side data connection is disabled, can connect to local WiFi network, and access the local webserver, but once the Cell side data is re-enabled, the WiFi stays connected but browser request for HTTP: //192.168.4.1 fail and can no longer reach the local webserver.
Seems to be a routing / DNS tied issue, but not sure how Android handles request when cell data and wifi are both active and handling request.
Any ideas of a configuration that preferable will not require root would be appreciated, any and all idea are appreciated.
Thanks!

Your issue is that it cant be used at the same time as they use the same hardware. As an example. When mms comes in and you are connected to wifi the radio disables the wifi connection for a sec to download it on the cell network. They both use the same antenna so only one connection is active at a time.
