[Bug 1107935] Re: Support for WPA Enterprise wireless networks

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

** Description changed:

  Ubiquity doesn't appear to support WPA-Enterprise wifi networks --
  there's just a single textbox shown to enter a passphrase, but most WPA-
  Enterprise will require at least a specific username and password, and
  possibly certificates.
  
  NM should already export this information on DBus, it should be a matter
  of using libnm-gtk to query the user for the connection information
  rather than prompting for it directly from the installer.
+ 
+ <http://goo.gl/2iqv6j>: "If the selected network does require
+ authentication, Network Manager’s standard dialog should open for you to
+ enter those authentication details as soon as you choose “Connect…”."
+ 
+ (Not to be confused with bug 1018160, about WEP networks.)
