You are not seeing this problem because you ARE using CA certificate.
When you don't have one Network Manager should ignore it and connect
anyway, if you tell him so, which doesn't happen without manually editig
a config file to force it to do so.

Now, it IS true that using a cert is safer, but my faculty doesn't even
provide one. The network we use there is not Eduroam (though we have
that too, for guests), but a local one. A year or so ago, I wrote them
about this, they told me that it wasn't necessary, and that they don't
have plans to provide it in the future. So I was thinking "Oh, well,
whatever. As long as I can connect." And from the comments above, I see
that my faculty is not the only one. So this is still of high
importance, if not critical.
