wpa2-enterprise wireless problems

[ Edited ]

The Playbook is not working with my work place's wireless network. It has a wpa2 enterprise infracture with  authentication against a radius server / Active Directory. I was able to install our root certificate (also need for authentication), but connecting is still a no go. Were using Meru Wireless APs throughout the building.

 

80% of the time the work network ssid doesn't even show up in Available Networks.

 

It works fine at home home (which is wpa2-personal) and on open networks.

Re: wpa2-enterprise wireless problems

 

We are having the same issues. We are currently evaluating the playbook but we are at a standstill because we are unable to get the Playbook to connect to the internal Meru wireless network. Our security type is AES WPA2 TKIP. We are using Certificate based authentication via an internal CA. When we try to connect it tells us we need a client Certificate but when we try to download the cert with the playbook tethered to my desktop, the Playbook will not recognize it. Any suggestions would be great.
