Well, I'm OK with doing private, but here's my dilemma.  We're trying to do
a BYOD model, but we'd still like to use 802.1X for our wireless.  Right
now, iOS, OSX, and Android will connect, but Windows refuses.  I think it's
because of the SSL certificates.  The other 3 OSs complain mildly, but they
allow me to trust the cert, and then don't have any problems.  Windows just
won't connect.  Since we're wanting to do BYOD, I can't readily install a
client cert on every Windows device that walks through our door.  Any
suggestions?  I'm not really getting any definitive errors, only the
generic "Can't connect" from Windows, but I've read online in various spots
that this seems to be a cert issue.

Thanks,
