I love the printer so far, except for the virtual keyboard. For the life of me, I can’t find the special characters, such as ~, that I need to enter my Wi-Fi password.
I might be overlooking something, but my H2D has these characters on its keyboard.
It’s such a nuisance to have to change my Wi-Fi password, especially since I’d then have to reconnect all my other devices using the new password.
My WiFi password doesn’t have any special characters, but it’s just a lot longer.
Just as safe and never any hassle with the special characters.
Of course it doesn’t include that, the STLS are just the model and cannot express colour. OBJ files can, though.
Sounds like I have to change my password because one company can’t supply a proper virtual keyboard like any other company can.
I don’t own the H3C, but I would assume that the keyboard supports special characters. But it seems that they hidden it far away.
At least you are the first to report this issue. That doesn’t mean it’s not an issue. Just an observation.
Indeed, I hope I have overlooked it.
The problem is having to change wifi password, and then re-programming all other devices. There is no international standard for passwords I am aware of, but many organisations insist on at least one upper case, lower case, digit, and special character.
Im assuming it has to do with AUX AMS integration, since they all connect to tool #1.
I understand that you need your passwords on all connected devices if you decide to change your WiFi password. And I know that is not a nice thing to do.
The reason they advise you to add special characters, seem to be based in multiple possible reasons:
For instance an Alphanumeric (upper- and lowercase + 10 numbers) gives you 7e+35 combinations with 20 digits.
If you would add for instance 20 special characters you could make your password 18 (2.8e+34) or 19 (2.3e+36) for a similar number of combinations.
The question is if that really matters a lot.
For a WiFi network you can try a brute force method to try to run through all the combinations, but for a login, most systems generate a (timed) lockout after for instance 10 attempts.
Systems are usually hacked because people use the same passwords on different systems or because key-loggers catch someone’s passwords.
In my opinion brute force password hacking would only work with very short passwords and then even on systems with very poor security features.
The reason I eventually went for the Alphanumeric choice was the fact that many devices give you very limited keyboard options, that require complex key combos to enter these special characters.
You change it once now, and never have to worry about it again.
