For me it works fine - are you using cable and wireless-network simultaniously? There is a setting in the profile-file (EnableLocalLAN), which may disable other network-cards, if you are connecting to your university. If the connection is realized through cable (or the cisco- client tries to do so), wireless gets disabled. The EnableLocalLAN- setting defaults to 0, change it to 1 and retry.
Another possibility is that you are encountering Bug #42504. As for my university-account (Free University Berlin), the initial connection is unencrypted. There are issues with wpaclient and network-manager connecting to unencrypted networks. A possible workaround (patched packages) is available in the comments to the bug-report mentioned above. -- Network manager conflicts with Cisco VPN client or the other way round https://launchpad.net/bugs/49902 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
