10/18/2023 Map Stopped Working?
Visit this post for the fix
What version of Linux is the Livesectional built on? I'm doing some networking changes at home and would like to get my live maps connected with WPA-Enterprise instead of WPA-Personal.
Livesectional uses wpa_supplicant, which supports both enterprise and personal, and I have another Raspberry Pi that is successfully using WPA-Enterprise. However, the Linux distro hides the config elements so I can't actually just drop in my working config file in place.
If you have access to the web admin page there is a 'System Information' link under 'Map Utilities' and it lists all sorts of info. To answer your question it displays;
OS Info PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)" NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux" VERSION_ID="10" VERSION="10 (buster)" VERSION_CODENAME=buster ID=raspbian ID_LIKE=debian HOME_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/" SUPPORT_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianForums" BUG_REPORT_URL="http://www.raspbian.org/RaspbianBugs"
I hope this provides the info you are looking for. I'm not familiar with the difference between WPA-Enterprise and WPA-Personal so I'm not sure I can help much with that. If you do figure it out, please let us know what you did so that its documented. - Mark
An update, but not a solution yet.
Rasbian uses NetworkManager, so you can't just configure wpa_supplicant.conf. I found this guide on how to do it: https://github.com/wylermr/NetworkManager-WPA2-Enterprise-Setup, so I've created a Network Manager file to use with my enterprise SSID. I created a file with my network config like this:
[connection]
id=(my SSID name)
uuid=(generated with uuidgen)
type=wifi
permissions=[wifi]
mac-address-blacklist=
mode=infrastructure
powersave=2
ssid=(my ssid)
security=802-11-wireless-security[wifi-security]
key-mgmt=wpa-eap[802-1x]
eap=peap
identity=(my username)
phase2-auth=mschapv2
password=(my password)[ipv4]
dns-search=
method=auto[ipv6]
addr-gen-mode=stable-privacy
dns-search=
method=auto
I can see the new defined connection (nmcli connection show), but if I try to change the connection, it seems to disconnect from the PSK network but it won't connect to the new definition.
Next step: I think I might need to change to the NL80211 driver instead of the driver that's being used by default, but no guarantee that will work.
I'm sorry, I wish I could be of help with this. But you have ventured far from my knowledge base. I appreciate you continuing updating your progress here though. It will undoubtedly help others. - Mark
