Preface: I am a noob when it comes to linux OS' so feel free to correct me if I used any incorrect terminology. I have recently dual booted Ubuntu 12.10, with my windows 8 OS, into an external hard drive. The only problem is I can not connect to a wpa2 enterprise wireless network from Ubuntu, works fine in windows. Ubuntu can however connect to other network types, so far just a unprotected one I had my room mate whip up from his mac. Every time I try to access the wpa2 network it never connects and continuously asks for my login information. I have scoured the Internet and can not seem to find any solutions for my particular case, I have seen plenty with the same problem but I have yet to find one of their solutions to work for me. Here is the relevant data that I have if there is anything else you need please let me know.

Network adapter: Intel Centrino Wireless-N 1030
