Yes the browser is one of the "Beta features". They are not strictly supported. Kobo does fix problems with them, but, at a lot lower priority than the main parts of the device. And the browser will never have the features of a PC or tablet based browser.

For me, the search goes straight to the google search page. I don't know what the difference could be. It could be regional or that you have a proxy of some sort in place. Or a VPN could be making Google see you differently. You could try editing the config file and removing the "Browser" section in case one of the cookies is triggering this. Do you have any issues when using the Wikipedia search? Or the browser directly?

Also, you posted this in the wrong section. The "Kobo Tablets" is for the old Android based Kobo devices that are no longer supported. It would get more attention in the main Kobo area. I have asked the moderators to move it.
