Yes, there are a few limitations to U2F keys.

  1. You must be using a device with a USB port, and the USB port must not be disabled (some kiosks and computer labs disable USB ports for security reasons).
  2. You may need to Update Your Security Key before it will work with all browsers.  If you have already completed this update no further action is necessary.
