    Usually caused by setting the encryption on the laptop to WPA-RADIUS
    instead of WPA-PSK, can you see if that's the case here ?

    You could check it by logging into your routers settings page eg 192.122.1.3

    My dad has the same setup. The encryption is WPA-PSK and I always get the message that there is no certificate available.

    My laptop connects OK though despite the message.
