I precise i have <lenght 0> and <lenght 6> for example

For the <lenght 6> essid, i could unserstand that is a hidden essid with 6 strings of character. But why 0 ?

Turn off hide essid in your router configuration page.

Let whatever program you're using run for a while and it should eventually pick it up.
