Issue connecting ios 7 devices to WPA2 wifi networks

I am using Cisco Wireless in our corporate environment. We are using Enterprise WPA2 security which requires the user to accept the certificate. I am no longer able to connect to these networks after installing ios 7 except for a newtork that I already accepted the certificate for. I enter the correct credentials and immediately get a message that it cannot connect to the network. I should get a message to accept a certificate. I wanted to open this up as an ios 7 discussion because it currently happens on my new iphone 5s as well as on my iphone 4s and ipad 3.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

iPhone 5s, iOS 7

I'm not sure if we have a Cisco based system at work, but I'm having the same issue. WPA2 Personal, worked fine on my laptop and iPad2, but as soon as I upgraded to iOS7 on the iPad, it no longer connects to Wifi. The laptop still works fine...

I am also having the same problem! I'm not sure if we have a Cisco system either but it's at my school. Wasn't working on my 5 with iOS 7 and it's not working with my new 5s either. Someone help!!!!!

we are using cisco aironet with wpa security in our office, all devices with ios7 (including my new 5s) having troubles connecting to the AP, our solution is just entering the password several times till it starts working. we talked with cisco support, dont have any idea how to solve it... we tried to change ssid but nothing helps

Unfortunately, the 7.0.3 upgrade did not resolve my issue. In order to connect to another internal wireless network, I have to forget the one that I am connected too. That is my current work around. Ultimately, this only affects us in the IT department because we are the only ones that jump between networks.

Unfortunately it has not yet been fixed. Our work around is to forget the network and then join a different WPA2 wireless network.
