I can't connect to WiFi access points with a space in the SSID.

Postby AndreiC » Fri Jun 15, 2018 9:04 pm

I can get a solid connection to an AP and send packets to a TCP server, but only if the SSID has no space characters in it.

So if the target SSID is "test", my code works wonderfully, but "test 5GHz" will fail.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Andrei

I suspect it's not because of the space, but because of "5GHz"...

Slightly after I posted this query, I figured out that the module cannot communicate on 5GHz. Since the query was in moderation for a while, I could not answer my own question.

So, yes, you're almost right. The issue wasn't the " 5GHz", which is a text string, the problem was an incompatibility with 5GHz networks.
