WG102 fails with iPad / iPhone with iOS 6 and WPA2 / AES - urgent fix necessary!

I can confirm that the exact same issue is happening on the WAG102. iPhone 5, 4, 4S with iOS 6 fail to connect to the Access Point. iPhone 4/4S had no problems under iOS 5. iPad 2 on iOS 6 does work, however. I have tried rolling back the firmware with each version all the way back to 2.0.5 with no luck. I was able to get a connection under 2.0.5 but it would last only a minute before being dropped while all the non-iPhone devices lost connections as well. I've tried changing every setting and security protocol to no effect.

After Googling this issue, it is obvious that a lot of people are having big problems with the iOS 6 release and Netgear products. When can we expect a new firmware release to address this issue?

Hello *, * after upgrading my iPad 3 to iOS 6 it constantly fails to connect to WiFi with WPA2 and AES - hidden or broadcasted SSID - at home and at work because the device does not accept the WPA2 password. This is also the case for my iPhone 4S but both devices did work with WiFi (WPA2 / AES) perfectly with previously installed iOS 5.1.1. * I tried to downgrade to iOS 5.1.1 but it seems to be no longer possible to downgrade for both iPad 3 and iPhone 4S as the certification and signage window for iOS 5.1.1 maybe has been closed by Apple. The odd behaviour seems to deal with a firmware issue of the installed Netgear WG 102 APs that all do not allow the connect of iOS 6 devices with WPA2 / AES enabled :-( Does anyone know about a possible solution to connect to WiFi with WPA2 and AES with iPad 3 / iPhone 4S and iOS 6 upgrade to Netgear WG 102 APs? * Thank you very much for any help and advise. * Best regards from Germany * Matthias
