Title:
  Unable to connect to the access point with a certain essid

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have access point with essid '93'. When I try to configure it in
  Network manager, it create new record in connections list. But it is
  impossible to connect to it. If I try to connect, network manager
  every time initiates creation of a new entry in the connections list.

  I try to connect to AP with different ESSID, and with most of it all
  works properly. The problem occurs only with access points that have
  essids consist only of numbers (without letters).

  The generated file /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/93 contains one wrong string:
   ssid=]
  I think it must be
   ssid=93
  If essid contains letters, Network Manager write this string correctly.

  Ubuntu 11.10 (same problem in Debian testing), Network Manager 0.9.1.90-0ubuntu3
  With NetworkManager 0.8 everything worked correctly.
