The only way I have managed to get the wireless items to work is by enabling "USB Devices" then in the drop down menu selecting "USB Keyboard 'Legacy' Support" in CMOS. I hope this helps anyone else for a work around as well. If your CMOS (Motherboard Bios) doesn't have legacy support than this is still a serious issue. |

CMOS isn't BIOS. CMOS is just 128 or 256-byte storage device used by BIOS to hold the configuration. Now GRUB has own USB drivers activated by adding following to grub.cfg:
insmod uhci
or
insmod ohci
depending on your mobo. It's not enabled by default since it can make some harm too if BIOS drivers worked fine. If GRUB USB drivers don't work correctly for you please reopen this bug, or better file a new one since context changed.
