Well no, that just points to an incompatibility with the Mac broadcom
drivers and/ or Mac OSX supplicant and the Cisco APs you're using. It
doesn't mean that the Macs are at fault.
I'm sitting here quite happily connected to an AP broadcasting 4
BSIDs, with two radios (a) & (b/g), running WPA/2-Enterprise with
TKIP/AES, authenticated with FreeRADIUS 2.0.6 using EAP-TTLS-PAP with
an anonymous outer identity.
I went over to the cafe earlier to get a muffin; once I had acquired
said Muffin, I sat down by a nice sunny window, opened up my MBP and
had a network connection within 10 seconds. After reading XKCD and
consuming muffiny goodness I came back to engg1, opened my MBP and woo
network connection.
