Are you sure it's not your driver that is the problem? It also gets the
SSID and has to do something with it. A patch from MS won't fix that
problem...

so you should get all of the CE5 QFEs and install them, yes. I suspect
that
CE5 doesn't suffer from the hang problem, at least in the same way as
CE4.1
did, but that does *not* mean that you can suddenly use SSID values > 32
characters long. That's still a limit.

connecting to and disconnecting from an access point) when SSID name is
