I use F9 with WPA2-AES (no TKIP or WPA-v1 allowed here).
NetworkManager (and wpa_supplicant for that matter) has no trouble
with WPA2-AES.  Might your problem be that your network *card* is too
old and doesn't support AES?

The only problem I see is that NetworkManager refuses to bring up the
network until someone logs into the console.  That makes it darn hard
to ssh into the box etc (but that is a different gripe).
