Hello,

I'm deploying NWA50BE in France in an installation using a router from Orange where it is possible to have accented characters in the SSID - e.g. <l'archiprêtré_invités>

It would be good to be able to use the same SSID on the AP.

Best.

    Hi @l_archipretre

    May I know if you get the error message that said length must be 1-32 characters long?

    If so, please try the punycode in SSID first. The punycode of "l'archiprêtré_invités" is "xn-- l'archiprtr_invits-mzbgm".

    There is no error message - the accented characters are replaced by other characters (I cannot connect to the AP now, I'm at a different site) I remember  and © etc.

    As soon as I'm back I'll re-test.

    Hi @l_archipretre

    Thanks for sharing. I checked that Nebula hasn't support utf-8 code, which device's firmware is already supported. We will monitor the comments and vote on this idea to evaluate it.

    Additionally, here is the result of the punnycode:
