Well... If they tell you they don't want to make this work for you, then
I'm not sure how we can be of much help?

I see that their server cert does not contain a Extension CA:FALSE
(which some OSes seem to like). That would certainly be easy to fix, but
only they can do that. IF that is the actual issue.

At least this one has a certificate which is very well-behaved and does
not raise any warnings. If Windows Phone doesn't like that certificate,
then all shame is on Windows 10 IMHO.

Your earlier comment on the us.es IT staff seems to indicate that they
actually know what exactly Windows Phone dislikes about the certificate.
That's great - I don't :-) If you can get the admins to tell us what the
issue is, we may be able to add checks for that condition in our tools...

> CSIC.ES does not have a clear description of their authentication method.

I have browsed through some documentation on their website and they have
TTLS-PAP as one supported method; they are using the TCS service for
their server certificates (just like ucm.es)

I don't understand. That article lists TTLS-PAP just fine? But then
again, why are you now talking about WP 8.1 now? Earlier you say that
you have WP 10?

More and clearer information would be nice.
