How to Connect to a Hidden Wireless Network
NOTE: By default, a wireless network’s router
broadcasts the network SSID (name).

wireless network is a network whose router has
been configured not to broadcast the SSID.
Follow these steps to connect to a wireless network that is
not listed on the Connect to a Wireless Network screen.
1. Select My network is not in this list in the Connect to
a Wireless Network screen. Then click Next.

2. The next screen asks if you want to connect to a hidden
network. If your network is hidden, select Connect to
hidden network, and then click Next.
Confirm Connection to Hidden Network
NOTE: If your wireless network is NOT hidden,
select My Network is not hidden, and then
click Next. Follow the instructions on the next
screen—verify that your network router is turned
on and is within range of the Adapter, and then
click Retry to search for wireless networks again
Then proceed to How to Connect to a Wireless
Network, page 4 to continue.
