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.
