const char* error

Why do I get this error when compiling this code.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\libraries\WiFi\src/WiFi.h:79:21: note: initializing argument 1 of 'int WiFiClass::begin(char*, const char*)'
79 | int begin(char* ssid, const char passphrase);
| ~~~~^~
Using these variables
const char
ssid = "";
const char
password = "
";
It will not find the network or compile. If the variable is changed to
char
ssid = "
";
char
password = "******";
It will compile and upload but it looks as if the values are not being passed and it will not connect to networ

try:

const char password[] = "******";

Post the whole code. Read the forum guidelines to see how to properly post code and information on how to get the most from this forum.
