4400N - WPA2 - bug

We are using 2 of these with WPA2 authentication/encryption - intended for use on our corporate network. AP is not configured to route/PORT FORWARD or anything fancy. DHCP is disabled as we have a DHCP server on the same subnet the LAN and Wireless interfaces are configured for on the AP. I simply want these to authenticate my hosts via WPA2 and allow us to roam between 2 or 3 of the APs.
Anyway, this setup works great for a couple days (users can connect wirelessly, authenticate via RADIUS and WPA2) AND roam between Access Points. Then, after 2 days or so the layer 3 connectivity between laptops and the AP suddenly stops. Rebooting laptops and APs has no effect. When roaming between APs I see my Mac-address showing up on the appropriate ports on the Catalyst switch these are connected to -- I also see the authentication retry show up and process appropriately on the RADIUS/DHCP servers. I never lose connection to the different APs -- except for the problem that I am no longer connected at layer 3. Can no longer ping gateways, APs DHCP/RADIUS servers etc.
Problem seems to be that the ARP/MAC tables on the APs flake out after 48-72 hours. VERY IRRITATING. If I reset to factory defaults and then reconfigure the EXACT same settings - it works great again for 2-3 days...
Packet captures on the DHCP/RADIUS servers etc. all show up fine -- which clearly puts the problem with these APs...

Hi Helm
I've tried all the combinations:
PSK-Personal : TKIP
PSK-Personal : AES
PSK2-Personal : AES
PSK2-Personal : TKIP or AES
Have also tried to tweak the Advanced Wireless Settings for the different comboes with no luck. The wireless connection will only stay on for a while and then suddenly drops
The funny thing is that the pc looks like it's still connected but there's no "hole" through to the Internet/network. I'm also not able to ping the router. To get online again I have to run a ipconfig release/renew of the IP-address.
FYI: I have 5 different laptops (with newest updates/drivers) that has the same problem. So it's not a driver/network card issue.
The only way I can get the router stable is to set it to WEP/128 bit encryption.That's why I'm suspecting that there might be a bug in the WPA/WPA2 mode.

Apple asks for a WPA2 password, but my router only has a WPA-PSK, is it a bug?

My router has a WPA-PSK password. I set up the connection using this password and all works fine. But when PC goes to sleep it kicks me out and asks for a WAP2 password which my router does not even have. When I restart the PC, I am connected again (as my WPA-PSK password was set), is it an Apple bug?

I found an answer for us.
My security setting is WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK on my modem/wirless router with Time Warner Cable. IPad does not have an option to select this security setting when attempting to connect to a WiFi network. I could connect my iPad by WiFi on some ocassions (selecting WPA or WEP on the iPad). However, I would lose connection after about 5-10 minutes. I have been having this problem for about 3 months. I spent a couple of hours on the phone yesterday with Time Warner and we think we "stumbled across" the fix (instead of actually knowing we found it). The tech noticed that the setup on the Time Warner modem/wireless router had the box for Active WPS checked. After the Time Warner tech unchecked Active WPS within the router's setup, the iPad starting picking up the WiFi signal. The iPad has now functioned for a full 24 hours without a problem or shutdown!
When I talked with Apple techs in the past, they had no known solution to this situation and said that Apple simply did not support WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK. The Time Warner tech also said that "he thinks" (but isn't sure) Apple's designation of WPA Enterprise equates to what others call the "old WPA" (or simply WPA) and what Apple calls WPA, others actually refer to as WPA-PSK (the newer WPA).

AEBS - WPA2 Personal - Security bug?

If I hide my wireless network i.e create a closed network such that I have to join that network, select the encryption type (WPA2 personal) and then type in the password - there seems to be a bug. In that if the password is typed in wrongly and I get press the try again option it just lets me into the network anyway.

WPA2 is only secure if you use a strong password. a pre shared key that is weak is vulnerable to brute force dictionary attack.
BT routers are not made by BT they are just a speedtouch thompson router in sheeps clothing. They show up in the sidebar.
Other routes i have setup
linksys
netgear
zyxel
apple base stations
dlink
Billion
any Sar chipsets
Belkin
and may more DONT show up in the sidebar.
many isp's use the dreaded speedtouch router rebranded with their own logo.
These routers work fine as modems but don't work well as routers. They crash, they over heat they are buggy. The problem is that most dslams in the UK are alcatel so ISP's use thompson/alcatel adsl router as they prove to be the most compatible for good sync speeds. But the problem is the speedtouch routers are inefficient.
Alcatel have been consistently making bad products for years. Anyone remember the dreaded USB speedtouch?

Cannot Join a WPA2-Encrypted Network

Hello all,
I have the iPad Wi-Fi+3G. At work we have 2 wireless networks served by Cisco WAP4410N access points. One is encrypted with 128-bit WEP and the other is WPA2-Personal Mixed. Both are set to 802.11b/g/n, and they have different SSID's.
The iPad cannot connect to the WPA2 network, saying the password is incorrect, even though I have verified that I'm using the correct password. However, the iPad can connect to the WEP network.
I don't know what else about the WPA2 network that could cause this issue. It also happens when iPhones try to connect to it.
In contrast at home, I can connect to my WPA2-Personal network served by an Airport Extreme Dual-Band router.
Thanks.

I am have the same issue with a different brand router. I can connect via WPA2 Personal via my MacBook Pro (that I'm typing this on), but cannot connect via my new iPad. I get an error saying that the password failed.
Any solutions, Apple?
First, Apple is not monitoring these forums for bug reports. This is primarily a user-to-user problem solving forum. Report your problem to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html with details. Since probably the majority of iPad users are using WPA2 without problem whatever problem you are having is likely specific to the model of router you have and the level of firmware it is running.
By the way, it's rather optimistic to be replying to a thread which is over 4 months old and has had no responses, even from the original poster who may have long since solved their problem.
If you want any useful advice here you should provide a lot more detail on what equipment you have and how it is configured, what iPad OS level you are running, etc.

HELP Adobe flash drive update BUG?? Big Problem

I bought a 13 inch MacBook Air in August 2014.
OS X Maverick, Version 10.9.4. 4 GB memory, 256GB storage.
I have been using Safari to see lecture videos from Echo360, and they have been working well despite the slow internet of the country.
Just until two days ago, everything had been working fine, until a Adobe Flash Driver Update popped up on my screen.
At first I ignored it (b/c I usually dont care about using the latest versions; the lecture videos had been working perfectly)
but it kept popping up so I clicked update.
The next day, my mac kept losing connection to internet every 1-3 minutes, such as "resolving host" messages.
The videos kept crashing and I had to re open the page, refreshing wouldnt work. about 15 times for a 50 minute video.
I erased the Flash Driver.plugin from my internet plug-ins in the library, and the internet came back alive.
I was guessing the "updated" plugins were eating up my internet/browser...
So then I downloaded chrome so I wouldnt have to manually use adobe anymore,
and now, the videos keep freezing at random moments at about 5-10 minute intervals. Now that the internet is back alive, i just have to refresh the page, which still takes forever to load...fortunately the browsers dont crash anymore...
Right then, I completely disposed anything related to adobe flash drive. I still have Adobe pdf which works great.
But even after, it kept freezing...
Maybe I was thinking this is normal when watching videos on chrome b/c the plug ins are not manually stored in my mac?
If not, what is causing the freezing of the videos on google chrome? (i dont think my mac is losing internet connection anymore every second like yesterday)
Is there any way to fix it? Is it from yesterday's history of downloading the "update"?
I just want to be able to watch my lecture videos like I normally did the past two weeks, before I downloaded the "update"
and now I am afraid that downloading adobe might crash my internet/browsers again.
It took me several hours to come to erasing the "updated" plug ins as I am fairly a noob in computers.
I spent a lot of time and researched a lot up till 5AM in the morning just last night.
and I have exams coming up next week... I would really want this to be resolved.
Should I try downloading adobe from its actual website and see what happens?
If yes, which versions would you recommend?
Yesterday when I checked after the update, it stated the most current Adobe 15.
If this contains bugs for mavericks, I would rather do older versions.
I do not know which version I was using before the "update" when everything worked perfectly.
Thanks for reading all this
I know I am all over the place; Im just very frustrated and desperate as not knowing what to do....
I just want my mac to work like before I clicked on the "update"
Any help will be greatly appreciated
Thank you

You probably installed some kind of malware pretending to be a Flash update. That's very common.
1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

WPA2 PSK Issues

Anyone else having WPA2-PSK issues? My MacBook Pro works flawlessly with WEP but when I recently changes my network over to WPA2-PSK it stopped connecting. I have 5 PC's that connect just fine so I know there's nothing wrong with the settings on my WAP. I did some digging and noticed that after I configure the settings for my network in System Preferences and save it; it lists my network as WPA not WPA2. I thought this just might be a gui bug so I pretty much ignored it. Well I'm guessing it's more than that. I found that if I edit my com.apple.airport.preferences.plist and change the WPA reference to WPA2 it will connect to my network. The problem I have is OS X will change it back to WPA and I will lose connection. I've searched and searched forum after forum and I can't find a solution to my problem. I've reinstalled OS X and that didn't fix the issue. I've had to resort to setting up my 802.11a channel with WEP and my 802.11g with WPA2-PSK. I really want to dump the old WEP key since I now have neighbors within my wireless range.
My router is a Netgear WGR614v2 (no laughing please). Anyone have any suggestion (besides buy a new router)?

I'm new to the Mac world (have linux experience) so I could be wrong on this but isn't the Airport Utility only for configuring Apple's Airport WAP's? I don't think that would do me any good since I'm connected to a third party WAP. Am I wrong?

Apple Configurator Wi-Fi password bug? or just need to RTFM?

I've been playing around with the new Apple Configurator for a few days now and have run into a problem when creating profiles that I want to install on a few iPad 2s. I'm either doing something fundamentally wrong and need to RTFM more closely, or there's a bug in the software that I'm hoping someone could (a) confirm and (b) provide a workaround.
The problem is when I define a Wi-Fi payload for a network that uses WPA2 Enterprise (PEAP with user/pass RADIUS authentication) in that Apple Configurator steadfastly refuses to save the password. I've tried installing Configurator on a couple of different Macs and have been able to replicate this problem on each of them. I have also tried recreating the profile in Configurator and also importing a profile into the it from IPCU. In this scenario, Configurator *does* remember the Wi-Fi password, but does *not* remember/honor the passcode timeouts. Furthermore, *any* changes I make to the imported profile wipes the saved Wi-Fi password.
I realize that this is 1.0 software, but somehow I expected something a little bit more polished from Apple (afterall, it's not "0.9b"). So the question for the community is this: Am I doing something wrong or is this simply a bug? Is there a workaround that anyone has discovered?
TIA,
Mike

Thanks for the reply. I was in touch with a Apple engineer who also recommended that I file a bug report. The Bug ID for this is: 11054681.
In the meantime, I was able to figure out a workaround.
Create configuration profiles in IPCU for (a) Wi-Fi (b) Passcode settings and (c) Everything else
Export each of those config profiles
Using Apple Configurator, import those profiles into it using the "+" button
Prepare and Supervise the devices as usual.
So long as I don't touch the Wi-Fi or Passcode profile, Configurator honors the password and passcode settings and applies them to the iOS devices as expected. Another reason to use IPCU for the passcode settings is that IPCU allows for Autolock to be set up to 15 minutes whereas Configurator only allows for up to 5 minutes.
Another bug (feature?) that I noticed is that if you have a configuration profile that contains Web Clips, Configurator duplicates those Web Clips on the iPad when you make and apply changes to a supervised device. If the Web Clip is defined as "Not Removable", you're left with multiple copies of the same Web Clip on the iPad. The only way I was able to get around that was to either (a) not use Web Clips or (b) Erase all Settings from the iPad and allow Configurator to reapply the config everytime I made any changes to the iPad. I also filed a bug report for this behavior (Bug ID# 11054780)
Anyhow, Configurator has a lot of promise, just a lot of bugs for a 1.0 release.

Mike

IOS 5 not saving Network configuration - bug

Can't find a place to report this bug so I'm doing it here...
1. Upgraded both iphone 3GS and Ipad 2 to IOS 5 - all working correctly.
2. Changed Enteprise password (due to corporate policy).
3. Now both devices require manual configuration of WPA2 Enterprise authentication whenever they are woken up. The network configuration is clearly being reset to WEP when they go to sleep.
I therefore conclude that the Authentication type is not being stored correctly by IOS 5, hence it is reverting to WEP.
Apple - please fix asap as this is severely impacting corporate use of both devices.
Thanks.

We also have deployed ain our company a number of iOS devices (iPhones, iPads, etc.). We are using WPA2 Enterprise as a security protocol and all our devices had no problem at all connecting to the WiFi network when at iOS 4. When we started upgrading devices to iOS 5, we started having exactly the problems you mention in your posts. I agree that this should be a major bug to iOS networking facilities, because it seems that it cannot store the WiFi account preferences with the correct authentication type and credentials, resulting in our devices not being able to enter the network AT ALL after being upgraded to iOS 5.
The nice thing regarding the issue is WHEN this issue occurs and when it is not. (it doesn't occur in all devices upgraded so far). If you have upgraded your device to iOS 5 from scratch (restore from iTunesand "Set as New Device" settings (no Restore from backup), then the issue emerges automatically for us.
If your user just upgrades when the iTunes message pop up appears, or manually ("Check for Updates") then all devices behave normally after the upgrade.
Something should be done ASAP, because we are facing a major problem over here...

NetworkManager Won't Connect to WPA2 Enterprise Encrypted Network

I decided to switch back to using NetworkManager instead of wicd as my wireless protocol because I like how NetworkManager has a Gnome 3 applet and GUI that I can easily use to connect to wireless networks. Here at university, the "main" wireless network is WPA2 with PEAP Enterprise-level encryption. However, I've been unable to connect to that network through the NetworkManager GTK GUI. When I open up the network settings window, I can see a list of all available networks (with the "main" network being listed), however when I go to click on it to connect, it won't let me. The program won't try to connect or anything.
I'm using an Intel wireless card that I KNOW can connect to network (as it worked in wicd), however it won't now. And just in case I'm forgetting something, my current daemon's array is:
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng hwclock dbus networkmanager !netfs @gdm @crond @httpd @cupsd dropboxd)
Am I missing something here? Thank you for any and all help, and if I'm leaving out information, please let me know and I'll try to provide as much information as possible.
SOLVED:
I simply entered in all of the information by hand, and NetworkManager connected easily. I'll just submit this as a bug report somewhere.

I've been connecting through wifi-menu without problems since I installed Arch. As for nmcli, it gives me the following error:
[ralph@AnarchBox ~]$ nmcli dev wifi con AnarchNet password **********
nmcli: error while loading shared libraries: libnm.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I then checked libnm-glib, and it was not installed, even though it's a dependency for networkmanager. I still couldn't connect through nmcli, so I checked the other dependencies, and dhclient, iproute2 and libmm-glib were also missing. I installed them, and I still have the same problem I started with, both with nm-applet and nmcli (nmcli will just try to connect and then the nm-applet window asking for a password pops up, then tries to connect again and repeats).

WCS/WLC Disabled WLAN still broadcasts! BUG?

Versions 6.0.182.0 on controllers (4 WISMs) and 6.0.132.0 on WCS.
Created a test WLAN which was used for a week or so, WPA2/PSK, broadcast ssid, standard stuff. I no longer wish to use it and set the enabled state in the template to disable and then saved and applied the template to the controllers. On various devices, I can still see it broadcasting! I have even checked on the individual controllers and the WLAN is set disabled, so no WCS sync issue. I also tried switching the broadcast ssid to off and reapplying it and this makes no difference.
If I try to connect to the WLAN, this fails, which is obviously a good thing! I have not tried to delete it yet as there are situations where we need the ability to enable/disable wlans.
Anybody else seen this issue before I report it to TAC?

If the WCS and WLC has been synchronized, you should not see this issue. Since you have already verified and ruled out a sync issue, this looks like a bug.

WPA2 shows as WPA

I have set up my airport extreme (firmware 7.2.1) for WPA2 Personel. I did the same in network preferences on my macbook. But the strange thing is that network preferences will always show it as WPA Personel. I have no trouble connecting and suspect this is just an interface bug. But I can't be really sure what kind of connection I am making. Did anyone notice this problem?

I just got a brand new router and am running Lion and these are the settings:
I would guess it has to do with the router and/or the older vs. newer OS and wouldn't worry about it as long as WPA2 is active. I checked on my router settings and this is what it comes up with.

Administrative credentials when adding a WEP/WPA/WPA2 Enterprise wifi profile?

Hello,
Why do users need to provide administrative credentials when they install a configuration profile containing installation of a WEP Enterprise or WPA/WPA2 Enterprise Wifi-profile? This is not the case when installing a Wifi-profile usning standad WEP, WPA or WPA2.
Is this a bug? It confuses users with user profiles when they need to confirm the installation with administrative credentials.

I don't know the answer to your question. Maybe you can find something here:

Spontaneous disconnects from a WPA2 Enterprise network with iwlwifi

The wireless network at my work uses WPA2-Enterprise with PEAP authentication and MSCHAPv2 inner authentication. Given this, cacert.org.crt, and the username and password, I am sometimes able to connect. However, I am often spontaneously disconnected. Sometimes this happens seconds after I connect, sometimes, I stay connected for hours. I use network manager to connect within gnome-shell.
The following describes my wireless card.
$ lspci | grep Net
07:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6235 (rev 24)
The NetworkManager log is not much help...
May 09 10:10:24 ocelot NetworkManager[299]: <info> (wlan0): supplicant interface state: scanning -> disconnected
May 09 10:10:24 ocelot NetworkManager[299]: <info> (wlan0): supplicant interface state: disconnected -> scanning
Last edited by astex (2013-05-09 14:27:44)

I had the same problems with my Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6000 and the WPA2 Enterprise network at university. And now since my last update where the driver seemed to be updated when also netctl replaced netcfg I am completly unable to connect to the network. But with my WPA2-PSK network I don't have any problems and my Notebook connects instantly.
I'm using wicd but also tried NetworkManager, netctl and also manually using wpa_supplicant but it was the same problem.
Also shutting down hardware encrpyption and 11n like mentioned in this topic:
option iwlwifi swcrypto=1
option iwlwifi 11n_disable=1
I guess it must be a driver bug.

WVC54GCA Missing WPA/WPA2 security options in web interface

I just got a WVC54GCA and found out that there are some missing configuration options in the wireless settings:
On the cameras web interface:
web interface > Basic : Wireless Settings > [ Edit Security Settings ] > Security Mode:
the dropdown gives me only two options: Disable and WEP, but no WPA, WPA2!
I upgraded to the latest firmware (1.1.00 build 02), but the problem remains.
Tried different browsers (Firefox 3.5, IE8) with the same result.
Is this a firmware bug? A faulty device? Anyone else having the same issue?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try to clear the Browser settings of your IE and then try to login to the setup page of your Camera, and check if you are able to find that options.... If still unable to find WPA/WPA2 Option on your camera, Press and hold the reset button for 60 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your camera, wait for 60 seconds and re-connect the power cable....
Now check if you are able to find that options... If still not then i think it might be the problem with the Camera... I think you need to replace your Camera.

Software, wifi, browser keyboard bugs crazy making

Whenever I'm browsing the web the PlayBook recognizes a click when in fact I'm trying to scroll. So, I'm constantly clicking back because of all the erroneous recognitions of me selecting a hyperlink during an attempted scroll maneuver. Also, I'm almost six foot man this horizontal keyboard layout is too far of a reach to thumb type effectively. So that means it is surely to large for the average person. Split the keyboard in half, delete the T and Y rows and compress all keys into the remaining space. I would like to try a half moon design split into two half moons, left and right side of the horizontal layout. The halfmoon would match the anatomical sweep of the thumbs when placed at the lower corners of the horizontal layout.
Also, experiment with a dynamic text entry box. This would prevent me from squinting at the current method of focus PlayBook uses when I enter text.
Bug report keyboard disappears when in text entry mode then turn to horizontal vice versa. Also, if I open a tab I don't want to have the focus shift automatically put a check box in the options menu.
Also, playbook unable to connect to apple router newer with wpa2. My bold 9700 can what the heck.
Also the screen calibration is lacking contrast and the algorithm used to change the brightness automatically needs to be focused only on the front camera and it needs to be tweeked more levels of brightness change added. What I mean is as it gets slightly darker the the playbook doesn't brighten or darken in enough steps automatically, it has maybe two or 3 big steps needs to be more gradual. Someone call the pew pew developer app crashing. For God sakes fix the horizontal keyboard.

Hi
Please try these steps might help you to fix your issue.
1) Go to device manager then uninstall the driver for keyboard restart the unit and have it checked.
2) Please update the Bios on the unit from HP Website.
