WiFi networks can sometimes be a bit challenging, especially if you&#8217;re using an Android device. A hidden SSID network is one where the network name (SSID) is not broadcasted, making it invisible to other devices. This can provide an extra layer of security for your network, but it can also make it difficult to connect new devices.<\/p>\n<p>In this blog post, we will discuss the challenges of connecting to hidden SSID WiFi networks on Android devices and provide you with several methods to successfully connect. We understand the frustrations that come with this issue, and our goal is to help you overcome it and connect to hidden WiFi networks with ease.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Video_Tutorial\"><\/span>Video Tutorial:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<lite-youtube videoid=\"QaClzPmdLNQ\" playlabel=\"Play: Keynote (Google I\/O '18)\"><\/lite-youtube>\n <\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Challenge_of_Connecting_to_Hidden_SSID_WiFi_on_Android\"><\/span>The Challenge of Connecting to Hidden SSID WiFi on Android<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Connecting to a hidden SSID WiFi network on an Android device can be a challenge due to the network&#8217;s invisibility. When you try to connect to a WiFi network, your Android device typically scans for available networks and lists them for you to choose from. However, since hidden SSID networks do not broadcast their information, they do not appear on the list of available networks.<\/p>\n<p>This creates a hurdle for Android users who want to connect to a hidden WiFi network because they need to manually enter the network details. Without the network name (SSID), it becomes almost impossible to establish a connection. Fortunately, there are methods and solutions available that can help you overcome this challenge.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Things_You_Should_Prepare_for\"><\/span>Things You Should Prepare for<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Before attempting to connect to a hidden SSID WiFi network on your Android device, there are a few things you should prepare for. These preparations will ensure a smooth and successful connection process. Here are the key things you should have ready:<\/p>\n<p>1. Network Details: Make sure you have the correct network details, including the SSID (network name), security type, and password. You may need to contact your network administrator or check your router settings to obtain this information.<\/p>\n<p>2. Android Device: Ensure that your Android device is up to date with the latest software version. This will ensure that you have the most recent features and settings available for connecting to WiFi networks.<\/p>\n<p>3. Patience: Connecting to a hidden SSID WiFi network can sometimes take longer than connecting to a regular network. Be patient throughout the process and follow the steps carefully. Sometimes, it may require a few attempts before successfully establishing a connection.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Method_1_Connecting_to_Hidden_SSID_WiFi_via_Network_Settings\"><\/span>Method 1: Connecting to Hidden SSID WiFi via Network Settings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This method involves manually entering the network details in your Android device&#8217;s network settings.
