The problem that stopped me using Beta 2, is still there with RC1 for me.

Trying to connect to WPA Enterprise, TKIP PEAP with certificate validation
off, and just using a username/password combination, no domain name. This
worked fine in XP.

I get asked for my username and password, provide the ones which have worked
for a long time in XP, and after 10-20 seconds I just get a baloon I saying I
need to provide additional credentials. I put them in again, and after a
similar length of time I am told I can not connect.

Anyone have this problem or any ideas on a solution?

You're not alone.

Same setup, same problem. No idea how to solve this tough. Somehow my radius
server (ZyXEL Vantage Radius 50) doesn't seem to like what is passed to it.

I thought it would be something like that. I just don't really want to annoy
our sys admins about it too much as it is my personal laptop I have decided
to run Vista on, trying to connect to work wireless network.

Are you on a domain or workgroup? Are you using certificate based
authentication?

Assuming that you are connecting to a network that requires a certificate,
you are probably hitting the following:

In vista the default authentication was changed from certificate based auth
to PEAP/MSCHAPv2. This means when using discovery to connect to a network
for which requires an EAP type, this is the new default. To connect to a
network which uses another eap type you need to create a wireless profile
for that network in advance. This can be done through group policy or by
creating a profile from the "Get connected Wizard."

To do this, just click "set up a connection or network" on the "connect to a
network" page (then chose "Manually connect to a wireless network"). After
typing the SSID (case sensitive) and setting the initial security settings,
click next. The next page will have a button which says "Change connection
settings." Click it. Here you can change the auth type back to "Smart card
or other certificate" on the "security" tab. Set any other relavent settings
while here. After pressing OK, you should be connected to your network
(assuming that automatic connections were allowed earlier in the process).

The design of the wireless "discovery" (using the UI) phase is not
necessarily designed to connect to networks which require management and
there are a range of options to create/distribute wireless profiles in
advance from netsh scripting to group policy.

Creating a wireless profile (steps above) is the more powerful method of
connecting to any type of network manually.

I the same problem, manualy configuration is correctly but after try connect
to wireless network - Vista not asked userneme and password.

In XP this working correctly and after 10-20 seconds I just get a baloon I

Also note that in vista to get a balloon for entering credentials, you must
uncheck the box which says "Use my windows credentials" in the MSCHAPv2
advanced settings. OR just use discovery to connect to a 1x/WPA network
while logged on as a non-domain user. Either of these methods will cause a
balloon to appear to enter alternate credentials.

If you are still seeing a failure, the following steps will log what is
going wrong:

1. Launch an elevated command prompt
2. netsh wlan set tra yes
3. Reproduce the problem
4. netsh wlan set tra no (make sure this is still in an elevated command
prompt, and wait for the command to complete)
5. Tracing results will be in %windir%\tracing\wireless (try report.html or
just attach a zip file of the dir)

No, that seems to be the opposite of my problem.

I am not on a domain.
I am not using certificate based, and I turned off 'validate certificate'
I also turned off 'use my windows login and password by default'
I am set to use PEAP/MSCHAPv2 and provide the correct credentials when
asked, with no success.

I will attempt to log as per your next response.
