there is no hotfix for EAP/TLS compatability.  there ARE 2 important
windows hotfixes for wireless supplicant bahaviour etc.

you cant. if you're trying to use PEAP than you must follow all
the specifications and return the correct stuff when and as needed.
you cant just throw back an accept. if you want a noddy poor wireless
infrastructure then just go for WPa-PSK or even a MAC-based captive 
portal
