Jolla support or will support the EAP-SIM Wifi authentification?

Well the questions were: "Does Jolla support EAP-SIM?" answer is NO. "Will Jolla support EAP-SIM?" Answer is YES, if you vote for it on this thread (I received the answer through JollaHQ Twitter account when I asked)
So, both questions were answered.
I'm waiting as eagerly as you for this feature, since all the IOS and Adroïd fanboys around me keep bugging me about the lack of that feature in SailfishOS.

supporting this approach, as so far only iPhone and selected Android devices support EAP-SIM e.g. in Hotspots of Swisscom

Nirkus ( 2013-12-26 22:30:04 +0300 )editSymbian also support EAP-SIM (at least S60r5, tested successfully on 5800 XpressMusic).
For now, support should be added to mer before it goes through Jolla devices:
- add pcsc-lite package (needed to access SIM card)
- compile wpa_supplicant package with EAP-SIM support (needs pcsc-lite according to doc)
- [update connman to handle EAP connections]
