Default Unable to enter an SSID

Hi all,
I'm trying to setup a network & connect my laptop to the home PC. The
home PC is set up using WPA.

When I try to create a network on the laptop it will not let me enter a
SSID. It will not let me proceed to the next stage, telling me that I have
used one or more characters that are invalid. I have tried upper case,
lower case, with numbers, without numbers and different string lengths but
it will not allow it. There are no spaces ether!
What am I missing!

Look forward to hearing from you.

Roy.

I'm trying to cut down on junk mail.

Thank you.
