I’ve got a Neato vacuum that won’t keep a connection because my wifi key contains an asterisk. All other devices are fine, but the Neato will routinely disconnect after several hours.

This led me down a rabbit hole to first set up a virtual SSID (which worked but impacted apparent throughput), and then a separate AP for low-bandwidth IoT devices.

I don’t have the time in my life to raise enough clout to get this addressed.
