In some environments, you may need to connect to a hidden wireless network. These hidden networks do not broadcast their names, and, therefore, their names will not appear in the list of available wireless networks even if they are in range. In order to connect to a hidden wireless network, you will need to get its name and security details from your network administrator or \acronym{ISP}.

In the \textfield{Network name} field, enter the name of the network. This is also known as the \emph{\acronym{SSID}} \emph{(Service Set Identifier)}. You must enter the name exactly how it was given to you. For example, if the name is ``Ubuntu-Wireless,'' entering ``ubuntu-wireless'' will not work as the ``U'' and ``W'' are both uppercase in the correct name.

In the \dropdown{Wireless security} field, select one of the options. If the network is an open network, leave the field set to ``None.'' If you do not know the correct setting for the field, you will not be able to connect to the hidden network.

Click the \button{Connect} button. If the network is secure, you will be prompted for the password. Provided you have entered all of the details correctly, the network should then connect, and you will receive an on-screen notification informing you that the connection was a success.

As is the case with visible wireless networks, hidden wireless network settings will be saved once a connection is made, and the wireless network will then appear in the list of saved connections.
