Hi,

I'm using these settings in wpa_supplicant.conf to connect to a similar 
network. I never tried it with a N... device.
However it works fine on my laptop. I suggest to enter it manually in 
the configfile.


network={
    ssid="\ssid\"
    scan_ssid=1
    key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
    pairwise=TKIP
    group=TKIP
    eap=PEAP
    identity="\my email adress on the exchange server\"
    password="\pass\"
    phase1="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}
