Key length WPA2-PSK password

I can connect to WIFI networks with "short" passwords but when I try to insert a key length of 63 characters this is not possible.
The Garmin Edge 820 accepts no more characters then 62. :(

I know it is a little insane but I am using a password with a key length of 63 characters (= the maximum WPA2-PSK key length)

Should I contact Garmin for correcting this bug?

I have exactly the same problem with my new Edge 820 :(
The maximum length of the key in the Edge seems to be 62 instead of 63 chars according to the 802.11 specification.
Is it possible to have a fix in the next firmware update ?

In firmware 5.20 the key length WPA2-PSK password is fixed.:)
The maximum length of the key in the Edge is now 63 chars according to the 802.11 specification.
