If you want to secure your network you should learn a bit about wireless
security. Crazy SSID or non-broadcast ID do absolutely nothing to secure
your network.  Nothing.  Any idiot with a a tool to break your
encryption will also be able to find your network whether or not it has
an SSID.

Also, the characters valid for your passphrase has nothing to do with
the characters allowed for an SSID.

A number of products don't properly support WPA nor WPA2. The most
popular product I can think of is called Windows.  XP doesn't
(generally) support WPA nor WPA2.  Well, if you call a pass phrase of
*exactly* 13 characters "support" - that's not to spec.

WPA2 with AES is the only thing you need to set up and then pick
yourself a decent pass phrase.  WEP can be broken faster than you can
type a new pass phrase and WPA with TKIP can be figured out pretty
quickly according to reports (never done that one myself).
