I've faced this problem before, schools often lack proper networking knowledge. In my school experience, I had to enable Protected EAP or PEAP authentication, set it as automatic, and manually configure proxy settings for internet use.

This ensures the proxy works correctly, letting tools like Octopi, W3M, and curl function properly.
