Also something that I don't understand is why doesn't Kobo support PEAP when it supports EAP!
PEAP is generally used in corporate environments as part of a WPA2 Enterprise setup. Public/private keys are used to encrypt the EAP traffic (the Protected in PEAP). It also allows for devices to be moved securely to a new VLAN after authentication. All kinds of nice features that are not generally found or needed in a home network.

The first time I sucessfully worked on connecting a Linux laptop to a WPA2 Enterprise network was with Linux Mint back in 2017 and that was—for certain definitions of fun—fun.
