      Hello,

      My WIFI network is not broadcasting it's SSID (hidden SSID) and I'm not able to connect to my WIFI network (2.4 Ghz) under Recalbox. When I broadcast the SSID, Recalbox connects OK to the WIFI network.

      I know hidden SSID does not add more security, but I have my reasons to hide my SSID. How would I use my hidden SSID with Recalbox?

      Thanks for your help!

      (Vous pouvez aussi me réponde en français si vous préférez)

        @oak-leaves Hello!
        As far as I know, it is necessary to leave the Wi-Fi visible, even in the Wiki contains the information "Check that your WiFi is in discovery mode":
