Hidden (non-broadcast) wifi networks

[zuspiel]

The Duet wifi is fantastic, once I could get it to connect (Ultibots D300VS+)

Couldn’t find anything anywhere in the wiki about the Duet not connecting to non-broadcast SSIDs. Tried many things (got really good at reinstalling the firmware, using ‘screen’ to blindly type commands, etc Only thought of the fact that my networks are hidden after about 8h of “getting to know your shiny new bit of electronics”. Once I switched the router to broadcast the SSID, it worked immediately.

Is there a way to make it work with the SSID hidden?

BTW, you may want to add something to the docu

Keep up the great work! The controller is absolutely mindblowing.
