Hi,
I've spend a good week now trying to get the ATWINC1500 to connect to a WPA2 Enterprise network using PEAP and MSCHAPV2.
I've learned a lot but unfortunately I still haven't been able to connect. I will share my steps bellow in the hope someone can sopt a mistake or point me in a new direction.
-
I've updated the firmware on the feather to 19.6.1 using the firmware update tool in the Arduino IDE and a binary from Atmel.
According to the release notes from Atmel this firmware version should now support WPA2 enterprise PEAP. -
The changes from the 19.6.1 drivers are ported to the WiFi101 library.
The above was done with the help of Joe Cicchiello whom I had hired to help me with this issue.
It is documented in more detail on his GitHub here.
The WPA2 Enterprise network is an ISP hotspot network. The ISP provides a root certificate to download and instructs to install it for Android and Windows systems although I can connect fine on Android without it.
To get this certificate loaded manually I downloaded the firmware updater from GitHub here.
I then removed some certificates from the "certs" folder to make space for the new certificate (as storage is apparently maxed out by default.)
Using the command line version of the uploader I issued: .\winc1500-uploader.exe -certs certs -port COM7 (on Windows VM as the updater would not work under Mac OS)
This seemed to work fine so I ran the WPA2 enterprise example sketch made by Joe again but no luck. (find the sketch code bellow) I keep getting error code "6"
I'm hoping someone can shed some new light on this.
Thanks in advance.
/*
This example connects to a WPA Enterprise Wifi network.
Then it prints the MAC address of the Wifi shield,
the IP address obtained, and other network details.
