I'm not sure where to mention this; I used to use these 
preferentially, but the past two or so years have been unable to ever 
connect using either.  I can associate and authenticate, or so my 
machine tells me, but it never obtains an IP address or router 
information.  This is on an "early 2011" MacBook Pro running 10.6.8. 
I figured it was some quirk of my machine and switched to 'ietf'.
