8021x support in the wifi TUI

Open 0ncoming-Storm opened this issue 4 months ago • 7 comments

What do you need?

The wifi TUI dose not support connecting to 8021x wifi networks, it would be nice to have it do so in order to connect to enterprise networks easily.

+1 for this, I was attempting to connect to my university Wifi and it wasn't a good experience. I am not too sure however if this belongs on the impala page (where this TUI originally comes from) https://github.com/pythops/impala

Impala author here. There is an open issue already for this one. Hopefully it will be implemented next week

@MattyGam3r @0ncoming-Storm There is a PR that should fix it https://github.com/pythops/impala/pulls If you can give it a try that would be helpful 🙏

@0ncoming-Storm can you verify and close the issue?

impala works to connect to the network, but it only allows connecting to enterprise networks if run as root. omarch-launch-wifi dose not run impala as root, and waybar uses omarch-launch-wifi

To be clear, this is not a choice made by impala, iwd stores the network configuration in the directory /var/lib/iwd and it is only accessible and writable with root
