-> Does anyone still use radius?

If you have a Site Survey feature on your WL gear or use INSIDDER 
http://www.metageek.net/products/inssider/ on a PC/Laptop you will likely
note that most neighboring businesses and home users use WPA/WPA2.

-> Has anyone gotten this combination to work?

I have wcRadius functioning on my Cisco gear and current TP-Link WL Routers
and APÿs.

The most common issues with RADIUS setups are:

- Mismatch between Secrets
- No IP route from client to Radius Server
- Firewall blocking ports
- Client requires Server to offer VEA support

With Cisco gear you may need to consider

- The authentication fallback order
- LEAP related configuration if applicable

Finally one of the reasons why platforms such DD-WRT are so popular is
because Vendor provided firmware images sometimes have issues and/or
limitations with older technologies.

It maybe necessary to fire up Wireshark or a similar PA to sniff out the issue.
