Browser hangs when wireless card enabled
0%
Description
As soon as the interface is enabled in assign interfaces, web page refreshes hang/are slow. Theory: problems loading wireless interface config.
System sitting at my desk 172.27.44.136 (WAN) remote access enabled, default password.

All pages or only the interface page for the wireless interface?
I can sort of reproduce this in Firefox but only if the Lastpass extension is loaded and set to Highlight input boxes. Numerous sites stall in the same way with Lastpass though. The Highlight input boxes setting seems to be ignored if you're logged out so it always highlights in that state. If you have that option unchecked while logged in and Lastpass is logged out, it still highlights the form fields and causes slowdowns on pages with lots of form fields. If you disable that setting or login and then disable the setting, it's snappy again.

Ok clearing the highlight input boxes didn't fix it for me, but disabling lastpass completely did. Not sure why this would be the case unless the ajax bits are causing form fills to go crazy on lastpass.
Its only the wireless interface page that hangs, I was unclear.

If you search around the web a bit, it's a common problem affecting lots of people with the current Lastpass add-on on pages with many form fields. Not sure there is anything we can do for it since it's really a Lastpass problem.
Typically unchecking "Highlight input boxes" is enough to correct the problem, though perhaps restarting the browser and logging back into Lastpass after doing so is necessary.
