Is this wireless? What is your encryption scheme and authentication?
We've just completed testing a new WPA2/Enterprise setup, using either
PEAP (MSCHAPv2) or EAP-TTLS. There were no significant issues with
either MacOS or iOS devices other than having to accept the initial
certificate (or have XpressConnect install it). There is a problem with
MacOS Lion, if you have saved credentials -- if the password is changed,
Lion continues to retry the old credentials and fail -- it never
re-prompts for new credentials. The only workaround is to delete the
credentials from the keyring.
