Current behavior
I try to connect to a hidden network, the hidden network appear in Nerves.Network.scan("wlan0") as:
%{ age: 0, beacon_int: 100, bssid: "the mac address", capabilities: 1041, est_throughput: 54000, flags: "[WPA2-PSK-CCMP][ESS]", freq: 2412, id: 11, ie: "x", level: -39, noise: -89, qual: 0, snr: 50, ssid: nil, tsf: 0 }
it appears that the network is associated, as shown in Logger.
19:27:55.020 [info] WiFiManager(wlan0): ignoring event: {:"CTRL-EVENT-BSS-ADDED", 1, "the mac address"}
but is not connecting, however making visible the network the device(rpi3) connects to the network.
Expected behavior
connect to the associated networks.
I am able to connect to hidden networks. I suspect this has been fixed in recent updates to nerves_network. Feel free to reopen if the latest version doesn't work and i will further investigate
Hello, thanks for checking this issue, however, I'm still having the issue :(, how do you spawn your hidden network??, I use create_ap and a tp-link USB Wifi Adapter, I started thinking that the bug maybe in that project, however, my phone can connect to the hidden network and the rpi only connects when I make visible the network, the project that I use for the test is here.
Thanks in advance.
This comment shows the fix; the fix was to add scan_ssid: 1 to the network configuration :).
Hey thanks for checking this out! I will be sure to add that to the docs and maybe we can default that to set.
