Laptops unable to connect to wireless

Laptops unable to connect to wireless

Our school district's Windows 7 laptops are unable to connect to the wireless with the "validate server certificate" setting enabled under the wireless properties. If I uncheck that box the laptop is able to connect. With about 1000 laptops unchecking that on all will be a pain. Would adding a certificate to the NAC solve this problem?

Just an update. We got a certificate from GoDaddy and added the wireless settings to a gpo. Our laptops are now connecting without issue. Thank you for all your advice.

Is there a was to export the current certificate in NAC so I can deploy it on a laptop?

Where is your root CA, if NAC is terminating 802.1X the certificate will be self signed and probably not what you want?
