Wi-fi password field length and more...
On both my email accounts and wi-fi, passwords use extended ASCII and are up to 63 characters long.
All devices, from Linus to Windows, as well as, Smart phones to home entertainment accept the passwords and are able to connect and transfer data in an encrypted form, except one... the iPad!
I've search and found nothing pertaining to whether the iPad is limited to standard ASCII. Further, I've searched to no avail attempting to determine if the iPad has a limit to its password fields for email and wi-fi. If truncation is occuring due to a field limit, that would answer why passwords are not matching resulting in an inablility to connect.
1) Does anyone know what the field lenghts are for email:password and wifi:password?
2) Does anyone know if these fields are limited to standard ASCII characters or if they can handle extended ASCII?
3) If you have an answer, where can I obtain such information for the future?
Thank you.
