on NPS - do the following:

Choose 802.1X connection from drop down in main menu (see picture)
Give the connection a name
create Radius Clients for all APs - with correct shared key
Select EAP type - for establishing connection to NPS server. Try with Protected EAP first
Choose configure - choose certificate and choose EAP type, try MS-Chap V2 - clients authenticating using usernames and passwords
Select User Groups that are granted access, depending on how you want to grant access, to computers, users or both ...

if it's not domain joined - then you should deploy a user group and either certificates (export and import to user computer) or user EAP-MsChap V2 - and remove Use Windows Login Credentials;
