I've recently installed the latest version of Ubuntu (64 bit), alongside my Windows 8 dual booted machine. The problem I'm having is trying to connect to my school network, the school uses a username and password system, so upon entering them the top right corner icon attempts to connect to to the network, but after some amount of time either disconnects, or tells me to enter the details again.

On another note, my computer appears to work fine wireless wise when I'm at home (Which only requires password entry and not a username to get on the network). Also, I know this problem has nothing to do with my schools internet because I'm using it at this moment, on Windows 8.

I've tried suggestions from these links, all to no avail:

  Just username and pass, and I`ve noticed some new behaviour after trying the suggestions from your link. If I restart the laptop,and boot into ubuntu the top right Icon tells me I'm connected.however,when I try to use the Internet, it loads extremely slowly. Also, if I disconnect and attempt to reconnect(hibernate,suspend or airplane mode) the same problem with the laptop not connecting to the network persists.

Click Edit connections.
Find your school's network from the list and select.
Click edit.
Click Wi-Fi Security tab.
Set securitty to WPA & WPA2 personal (assuming thats the system your school uses).
Enter your password.

If it is the kind where you log onto some service, maybe try fogetting the network and re-connecting to it
Click the internet connectivity menu.
Click edit connections.
Find your school's network from the list and select.
Click delete.
Wait a minute.
Click internet connectivity menu.

Had a similar issue. In case it is helpful for anyone, for me it was just a matter of changing from TLS to PEAP under the network settings.
