Question [Q] WPA-Enterprise+AES+PEAP (custom WM 6.1 ROM)

Hello everyone

Last school year, when I still had the original WM5 ROM on my Uni, I could connect to my school's wifi network that requires:
- WPA-Enterprise (Not WPA2!)
- AES encryption (AES on WPA - not 2 - looks a bit strange, but it«s the way it is setup on Windows 7 that can connect)
- PEAP for the EAP
- The routers are Cisco gear so I suppose they use Cisco LEAP
- No certificate (do not validate server cert)

On WM5, I could connect: I could select WPA on the first dropdown of the network settings, then on the box below that one I selected AES. Next step, I selected PEAP for the EAP type, and Finished. then I added a registry key somewhere so it wouldn't try to validate the server certificate. It asked for my credentials when I tried to connect to the network, and it connected fine and worked well.

Now I use a WM6 ROM, Tomal 8.9. I can select WPA but there is no AES option, only TKIP. I already added the registry key for it not to validate the server certificate, but it isn't even trying to validate the cert - doesn't get to that step, the furthest I could go was having it asking my network credentials in an infinite loop.

Should I try another ROM? (oh, and BTW, I'm sure that the network doesn't use WPA2, but WPA with AES encryption)

Any help is greatly appreciated. Even because I don't have a 3G data plan and the wifi at school was very useful.
Regards

Nevermind. After inputing my network credentials enough times, I could connect using TKIP. But somehow Windows computers are still configured for WPA AES instead of TKIP, which is strange. Anyways, it works now, and that's what matters.
