This page hosts details on our internal network, wired as well as wireless.

Every hackerspace has a network to connect to the Internets, so does syn2cat

Bring your laptop or use one of the available PCs, plug it in and off you go. There's also wireless LAN available.

Here's the current layout in fancy ASCII art. 

DSL -- thomson -- m0nowall -- miniswitch == wall ports in ADHS rooms
                    |
                    |
                  3com == wall ports in syn2cat rooms
                    |         ||
                    |         ||
                    |       OpenDuino,switches
                    |
                 dd-wrt .... dd-wrt -- photoborg
                    ||      
                    ||        
             naas,HPprinter


Legend: 

  * -- single cable
  * == more than one cable
  * ... wlan cable

Wireless

We have two access points (APs).
One of them operates in WPA2-Enterprise mode, the other in WPA2-Personal. The WPA2-Personal AP uses the formerly published pre-shared-password (you can find it in the space).

The WPA2-Enterprise AP uses a radius server for authenticating users with their WIKI account.
Only paying sy2cat members are able to use their WIKI login to access this AP.

Use the following settings:
Security: WPA2 Enterprise
Authentication: Tunneled TLS (TTLS)
Inner authentication: PAP
Username: <wiki-user>
Password: <wiki-password>

Be sure to use exactly those settings, else it will not work.
Windows users will have to resort to some third-party software (wpa_supplicant, securew2, ...) as m$ decided to not implement any other standard protocol besides their own.

Mac users should be fine... please somebody confirm.

WICD template

Save this as "/etc/wicd/encryption/templates/eap-ttls" and add the filename to "/etc/wicd/encryption/templates/active". 

name = EAP-TTLS
author = sim0n
version = 1
require identity *Identity password *Password auth *Authentication
-----
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
network={
        ssid="$_ESSID"
        scan_ssid=$_SCAN
        eap=TTLS
        key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
        identity="$_IDENTITY"
        password="$_PASSWORD"
        phase2="auth=$_AUTH"
}
