How to fix Apple Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard (Windows 10)

The driver situation with Apple Bluetooth wireless keyboards and Windows 10 is horrible, even with the latest BootCamp drivers. Fortunately, a workaround is available, if you're patient.

Pair keyboard once

  1. Turn on the keyboard.
  2. Press and hold Command + w until the keyboard light begins blinking, indicating the keyboard is ready to pair.
  3. Use Windows Bluetooth settings to pair the keyboard, entering the same code (e.g. 123456 Enter) on both internal and external keyboards.

Pairing the keyboard is very trial and error. 9/10 times, Windows will complain that the keyboard is not available for pairing. Just keep trying.

pfSense Easy Configuration Guide for HP t620 Plus

pfSense Simple Home Configuration - 2.4.3 / 2.4.4

Starting from Scratch

This is my personal guide for installing pfSense. Hope you find it useful. I made these notes to capture the details of my "install from scratch" to ensure I didn't miss important details. Also, I'm trying build my network with discrete "disposable" components that make the system mutable and less rigid. It does not cover installing any packages like Squid or Suricata as that's way beyond the scope of a basic, functional install.

I migrated from an environment that was at various times running Tomato Toastman 1.28 or Asuswrt-Merlin on Netgear and ASUS routers across four "access points" (one always acting as the firewall/gateway, the rest as APs). It was OK pre-gigabit, but had roaming problems, and I was using large Wifi routers with most of the features disabled. Also, I found that I could easily swamp the network and tank VOIP and Wifi Calling without even trying. The only fix was to throttle everything by using Bandwidth Limit
