hidden Wifi SSID

[soyde]

I CANNOT CONNECT TO MY WIFI NETWORK WHEN SSID IS HIDDEN.
I HAVE TESTED THIS BEHAVIOUR AT RECALBOX 3.3 AND THE LATEST 4 BETA, BUT BOTH OF THEM CANMOT CONNECT TO WIFI NETWORK WHEN WIFI SSID IS HIDDEN.

ONCE YOU SHOW THE WIFI SSID, THE RPI CONNECT WITHOUT PROBLEM, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO HIDE MY SSID WIFI.

HOW CAN WE FIX THIS BUG?

Hey @soyde

Hidden ssids are not handled unless you make some modifications yourself to some files ... I had the solution a long time ago which involved tweaning the wpa-supplicant.conf file as far as i remember

Ps : mind pressing caps lock to use lower case ?

Thanks @subs, very interesting to know that is there any solution.
Could you give me more information about modifications needed at wpa-supplicant.conf ?

Thanks for your help.

Look at https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=25104 when the poster mentions scan_ssid=1

BUT : i'm almost sure the conf file is generated at each boot, so you may have to edit /recalbox/scripts/reclbox-config.sh
I can't check as I have no pi at hand until August. But i'm almost sure

hello, do you have found the config for connect to hidden ssid with recalbox?
