Re: Vista - WPA2 Enterprise - wont retain username/password
You can set up a wireless profile manually.
1. Right click the wireless icon in the tray, and select "Connect to a network"
2. Select "Set up a connection or network" near the bottom of the dialog box
3. Select "Manually connect to a wireless network" option in the dialog box
4. Enter the information for the wireless network you want to add
5. Click Next
6. Select "Change connection setting"
7. Enter the remaining connection and security information |

| I have a wireless profile (and creating a new one manually didn't help).
When I select 802.1x for the security (since it's PEAP), there is no other provision to enter security-related information, save for going into the properties of the profile afterwards and selecting additional required options, like what server to auth to and what certificate to use.

4 edits | Although your comments about setting up PEAP does not match my memory and notes, I assume that you are correct. Perhaps someone running Vista will show up and help. |

I just reread your post. You should not select 802.1x. 802.1x is used for dynamic WEP. The correct selection is WPA-Enterprise, or WPA2-Enterprise. |

| The school doesn't use WPA. They use WEP 802.1x and PEAP for auth.
My point is that while the OP was using WPA2 Enterprise, it's the same issue I'm having.

2 edits | Seems Guspaz there is no way to avoid entering your credentials every time. I finally got fed up and I stopped using PEAP on my Vista client and swiched to TTLS using SecureW2 and its working great now. PEAP and Vista just doesnt work properly and I'm still waiting for Juniper to kick out a Vista compatible Odyssey Access Client so I can make use of PEAP again, or if Microsoft should kick out a patch but I wont hold my breath. |
