HHKB Wakeup Function broken?
« on: Wed, 05 November 2014, 12:53:32 »
I have Dipswitch 6 toggled on but the board won't wake my computer from sleep.

Anyone else have this issue?

rMBP running Yosemite
HHKB Pro 2 Type-S

Edit:
Nevermind, I've figured out the issue.
Thanks for all the suggestions!

In the end it turns out that the HHKB doesn't play nice with USB hubs. I gave the HHKB it's own USB slot on my laptop and it all works fine now.
Now I'm just questioning why I sold my uber-decked out Thinkpad for this dinky Apple product with only 2 USB slots (worst design choice ever).

I don't have this problem, running Windows 8.1 on a self-built PC.

Not a problem in Linux or windows for me either.

Try deactivating dip 6 and setting it back to on. A dip switch not fully engaged can cause issues

DIP was changed while the keyboard was unplugged?

I have this problem on an older Mac mini.

I tried toggling a few DIP switches, then I could wake up the Mac, but the firs time I tried to enter the password no keystrokes were recognised.

Now I just click the mouse to wake the Mac.

Did you unplug and replug the keyboard after changing DIP switch setting?

The changes do not take effect until you do.

Which key are you pressing to wake your Mac?

I usually used space or Shift (with the above results).

Tried everything you guys suggested but I think I figured out my problem!

The HHKB doesn't want to get along with my AmazonBasics USB 3.0 hub.

I gave my HHKB its own dedicated USB slot and wakeup works perfectly!

Thanks for all the help, guys!
