SSID with leading space character

Hi,

I wanted to report that in my case under Windows 8.1. When I try to activate a profile where the WIFI´s SSID has a leading space character it will report an error in the WiFi connection (although Windows has already connected to the network).

Best regards,

Andrés Acero

Re: SSID with leading space character

Thanks. I came across that problem already a while ago, but had to put it aside as it's a combination of different problems which makes it difficult to solve. At the same time I'm not sure why anyone would use an SSID that starts or ends with a space character. Many routers don't even allow that. But I understand that Windows allows it, so NSM should probably allow it, too. I'll push it on the internal todo-list to see if something can be done here.
