username?
That sounds like enterprise wifi with a RADIUS server as the ACL store rather than pre-shared key consumer wifi. The difference being that a RADIUS system is going to have username + password and may have optional certificates, and the home wifi is only going to have a passphrase.
I'm not sure that LIFX bulbs will support that... as in, the encryption, the interface, anything.
You may see the network on your phone... but I'm not sure that the bulbs could connect even if you have the RADIUS username + password that you login with.
Unless you specifically know that you can attach these to a corp network... I'm going to suggest that you actually cannot as they were never designed for it.

Sorry if this is way too specific...
I'm trying to connect some LIFX bulbs at work. The IT dept. are a little snowed under and their IOT wifi doesn't seem to actually have any internet connection, so I'm having trouble setting them up.
Is there any way that I can get them to work on the staff wifi, which requires a username and password? it's the username portion that I can't seem to give within the LIFX app.
