Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
In manual configuration, if you put the wireless network's ESSID (which
contains blank spaces) without commas, the WPA-Key is not obtained correctly.
For example, if the ESSID is "My Wireless Network" and the pass phrase is
"mypassword" (without the commas), and you put it directly on the ESSID and
pass phrase fields, the resulting wpa key is not obtained correctly. In order
to get the correct wpa key and thus connect to the network, you must write the
ESSID with the commas so it recognizes the full character string.
I include an attachment with a screenshot showing an ESSID with blank spaces
written with commas so the computer can connect to the network.
I think this has an "easy" solution...
