Could anyone with a WP8 device and a wireless router check something for me?

Whenever I try to connect my phone to a public Wi-Fi network (with and without password) and the name of the network is 3 words or longer (with spaces, such as "Super Home Network"), my phone (Ativ S) won't connect and I receive a error message saying that there wasn't a response from the network.

Now, I surely wonder if this is a problem with only my phone or with the Windows Phone OS itself? My Samsung Galaxy Note connects to those kind of networks without any problems. Can anyone replicate this?

The local sports bar I go to has a WiFi with 4 words with spaces and I can connect with my 920 with no problems. Sad part is that it's so throttled, my data connection is faster.
