If an AirPort network name (SSID) contains non-ASCII characters (Japanese, for example), it may not appear correctly in the wireless connection window to Windows 2000 and Windows XP users who are trying to join the network.
Windows XP and Windows 2000 users can still connect to an affected AirPort wireless network, despite the incorrect name. To achieve a predictable name, use AirPort Admin Utility to rename the network using Roman characters.
