New here so I'm not sure if I am reporting this in the right place but this is the closest I could find to the issue I'm experiencing. This bug is also present in the final version of 11.10 both 32 and 64 bit. You can change the SSID manually back to what it should be. It will then connect. This has to be done every time the machine is restarted or woken up from sleep or hibernation. It seems like the change doesn't stick.

Connect to an SSID with ONLY three numbers in the nm-applet menu. 2. Input password, wait for it to fail. 3. Note the new ssid it asks for is now a unicode symbol. What should happen: The SSID should be the SSID, dangit! :p Workaround: rename the SSID in the Network Connections manually and set it to automatically connect. The symbol is consistent with the SSID put into unicode. Example, 323 as an ssid would be U+323 in unicode. This seems like an escape failure in naming the ssid. The SSID code is consistent with the settings in the menu.
