Can't create a WPA2-Enterprise wireless connection; missing Microsoft: PEAP
OS: Windows 7 64-bit Enterprise
Hardware: Lenovo T410S w/Intel 5300 ABGN Wireless
If I try to build the wireless connection manually and choose WPA2-Enterprise, then click next, I get 'An unexpected error occurred.' and no options to configure; just close.
I then tried to create a Preshared Key WPA2 connection. This worked fine. When I go to edit the connection, I have the ability to select the WPA2-Enterprise options, however in the list of Network Authentication methods (under Security Tab), I don't have
the Microsoft: PEAP or SmartCard options. I only have Cisco: LEAP,PEAP,EAP-FAST and Intel: EAP-SIM,EAP-TTLS,EAP-AKA (6 entries).
It's my theory that because the Microsoft options are missing, the wizard gets the unexpected error. I'm wondering how I get the MS ones back.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in Microsoft TechNet forums.
Do you have Symantec installed? It is said the issue could be due to conflict with Symantec Endpoint Protection. Please uninstall\reinstall Symantec
if it is there.
Best Regards
