Hello currently switched to Windows 8 but I am having trouble with encrypted wifi.
So my school uses WPA2 Enterprise for our secure wifi. Usually this was easy to set up after doing some manual configurations. With Windows 8 it just doesn't work at all. I went to my schools IT department and since this Operating system is so new they had no idea why it was happening. The IT person kept trying to use the Windows 7 configuration steps but it just didn't work. Any ideas what is wrong and how I can fix it as I can't use this operating system if I can't use my laptop in the place I am 90% of my time.
Normal wifi and Ethernet plug in work fine.
Here is the basics on what is usually done on windows 7:
University of Manitoba - Information Services and Technology - uofm-wpa secure wireless setup for Windows 7
