By RJ Computers

Quick answer

Use the hidden-network connection option with the exact network name and security details supplied by its owner.

Understand the issue

Confirm that the network is intentionally hidden rather than unavailable. Guessing the name or security type can lead to repeated failures. Keep credentials private and do not change router settings without authorization.

Step-by-step checks

  1. Obtain the exact network name and approved security details.
  2. Choose Connect to Hidden Network in Wi-Fi controls.
  3. Enter the supplied details and test the connection.
