    Parameter

    Force connection to hidden network

    Registry

    network.interfaces.wirelesslan.device0.mssid_force_hidden

    Value

    never / once / continuously

    The default value never preserves the old behaviour.

    Changing can be useful in situations where the system cannot detect any configured WiFi in the environment. If once is selected, the system will blindly try to connect to all configured hidden networks once (until the network as a whole gets started again). In the case of continuously, it will continue trying to connect to hidden networks.

    Remarks: An access point found in this way will be remembered next time and its reconnecting will be faster.  Search for hidden networks in the Wireless Manager is not affected.
