    Solved: 

    The original, default password was several years old and no longer met the character requirements for a new password, so attempting to change the wifi name resulted in a greyed out Apply Changes button until a new password was typed in that met the updated requirements-- just in case anyone else has the same issue

Hi Alex M.

Please make sure that the password must be between 8 and 63 characters and may consist of letters, numbers, or special characters including:! @ % ^ * ( / ) . - _ + , ; $ ~ [ ].
Any characters that are not in that list please do not include them.

Thanks for the response Ben, but I'm unable to apply changes even if I revert the password back to the original one. As soon as I make any change to the wifi settings, the apply changes button becomes unusable
