I have been out of networking for some time and a lot of what I thought I knew is either lost to time, or has been changed, so I'm stumped as to how to approach this issue that may or may not be workable.
I'm teaching at a community college that is very much all about Windows. In past years, I never had any trouble connecting my Linux powered computers to the wireless network, but about a year ago, there were some changes and I cannot connect to the wireless except as a "guest" as the IT guy told me that doesn't require 802.1x authentication, but our LMS won't connect through a guest login.
Windows, IOS and Android will all connect with little to no difficulty to the wireless, so my brain says I should be able to find connection requirements and transfer them from one to the other. Do I have a shot? If so, where would I look? My networking days are over a decade past. I still know some stuff, but a lot has changed.
Thanx for the assist.
