I didn't see any words such as LEAP or EAP-MD5 on the configuration
pages. Frankly, I don't know much, well anything, about wireless AP
configuration. I may not be looking at the right place or it may be
under some other name. Is there anything else I could check for? I
described the security page and thats about the configuration options
I have.

My problem is I haven't seen the words EAP, TLS on the configuration
page. I kinda guessed that it might be the user access control list
[identity/password], but that isnt the case. About the manual
creation, I'll give it a try!
