Security Issue: Unable to use Passphrase on MR2100

Hello there,

 

I have recently purchased the MR2100, and want to configure the Wireless profile to use passphrase as Wi-Fi WPA2 password.

 

It is however, the Web GUI does not allow any whitespace and thus it failed to configure a valid passphrase password. This is very troublesome and horrific, that a recently developed and published product, cannot support a simple whitespace, needless to say general types of home routers are also accepting whitespaces.

 

I am hoping that Netgear can face this issue and fix it properly, as we all know complex passwords are just a metaphor of "things easily forgotten".

 

Regards,

Ivan
