This may apply to other special characters as well. When configuring something like an iPhone SSID, these devices default to naming the SSID for example Matt's iPhone. When an SSID such as this is input into the Pi-Star WiFi Configuration page the hexadecimal conversion that is done silently fails to convert the string and the resulting output is a blank ssid= line in wpa_supplicant.conf and an incorrect hexadecimal conversion.
This results in the end-user not being able to connect to the device, and no error messages indicating there is an issue.
I have corrected this issue and will submit a Pull Request for my fixes after submitting this Issue report.
