Regarding your built kernel with the reverted patches: my bad for not installing the linux-image-extra-* package. I did not realize the wireless drivers resided there.
I can now report that the upstream fix mentioned in the previous comment #13 resolved the issue for me, and I am able to connect to WPA-EAP enterprise network using latest 3.8.0-24 kernel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1186932 Title: Regression: kernel 3.8.0-24 breaks WPA enterprise auth [iwlwifi] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1186932/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
