Hi @PaulFurtado how's life? Feel free to ignore this.

Just thought I'd swing by here and leave a trace for how I've managed to get connected using a lightweight configuration with netctl. This isn't really an "issue" as much as a note.

Assuming a correctly setup netctl installation, creating a new file named /etc/netctl/wlp4s0-NUwave with the contents (fill in identity and password obviously):

Description='Northeastern University Wireless Network'
Interface=wlp4s0
Connection=wireless
Security=wpa-configsection
ESSID=NUwave
IP=dhcp

WPAConfigSection=(
    'ssid="NUwave"'
    'proto=RSN'
    'key_mgmt=WPA-EAP'
    'eap=PEAP'
    'identity="..."'
    'password="..."'
    'phase2="autheap=MSCHAPV2"'
)

This should allow sudo netctl start wlp4s0-NUwave to work as intended.
