Re: Wireless LAN SSID Causes an Exception or Causes the Device to



As far as I know, there's no support, via patch or anything else, for SSID
values longer than 32 characters. The fix is to not do that.

I am also facing the same issue with WinCE5.0. Do you know whether any
specific patch which can fix it?

Thanks & Regards

You should *always* install all of the patches to any OS that you're
using,
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.
