Robert, First I would not trust the Radius server logs, grab a packet dump to verify they are not trying to auth as the computer acct (I have seen MS IAS not log attempts so even though I have no experience with 2k8 NPS I would not trust the logs)
Also you mentioned diff buildings, diff subnets? AD sites? Lastly you mentioned certifcates are you using a self signed on the Radius server, MS CA? If MS CA what are your GO settings for the Radius and Certs (have seen issues with MS CA and "verification" on XP so just a hunch on my part.
