Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.6.8. I just added a wifi network with a hidden SSID to my saved, preferred networks list. Unlike networks with visible SSIDs, my Mac won't automatically reconnect to it. Does anyone have a solution to this? I hate having to re-enter the password each time.
Thanks,
Scott

But in the end that only thing that happens when you hide the SSID is it makes it harder for YOU to connect to YOUR WiFi.
Nonsense.
Perhaps some routers have firmware issues preventing reassociation to closed networks from working properly, but all of my Apple devices have connected to my closed network just fine since at least 2005 or so.
Thank you Chris.
This solved my issue as well 🙂
Cheers!
