I know I could change the WiFi pass phrase but then I’d have to edit the set up on all the other old devices using this network. I have a physical Newton keyboard if that helps.

On the software keyboard, tap shift-\ ... I know it looks like a broken bar, not a solid bar or pipe, but that’s the character I’ve always used. Shift-\ on the physical Newton keyboard should work as well.
