      Have a new issue with 4.0.1 that I did not experience in previous versions. This is happening on a rpi3 with 4.0 installed that was online upgraded to 4.01. When I try to setup wifi from the retropie menu I get a very quick error saying something like "operation not supoprted" and the setup script exits. I have traced this problem down to another persons SSID in my neighborhood. The problem seems to be with one of my neighbors wireless router that is named --Virus-- I am assuming that the problem is stemming from the double dashes that is causing the network name enumeration to fail and throw some type of illegal operation error. This should be fairly easy to recreate the problem if I am correct, or I may be way off base here. Anyone have any thoughts?

        I should have mentioned that the error is coming from wifi.sh
