    this is working as well:

    O.

    thx, this worked!

    To summerize the workaround:

    create a "/storage/.config/system.d/hiddenSSID.service" with following content:

    enable the service in ssh with "systemctl enable hiddenSSID.service".

    That was it, the next reboot Raspi should connect to your hidden network.

    O

    thx. But station wlan0 seems not be ready at this point of time:

    Any further hint?

    okay. Made a little progress.

    From ssh I can connect by iwd to a hidden network by the following single command:

    /usr/bin/iwctl --passphrase <PWD> station wlan0 connect-hidden <HIDDEN_SSID>

    Put above command into /storage/.config/autostart.sh to connect after reboot.

    That worked for me.

    Does anybody have a better idea to start the script.

    Maybe as service under systemctl after start of daemon iwd?

    How would this look like?

    Thx in advance

    I compared the settings between LE10 and LE11 for the hidden network

    "wifi_000f004c115b_436173612d537472616c6175_managed_psk"

    In LE10 settings I found one additonal setting "Hidden=true".

    But adding this in LE11 gave no improvement - still no connect to hidden network.

    In LE10 the connman is behaving differently.

    "scan" is showing the service "wifi_000f004c115b_hidden_managed_psk" and "wifi_000f004c115b_436173612d537472616c6175_managed_psk".

    In LE11 "scan" shows no hidden network "wifi_000f004c115b_hidden_managed_psk".

    Can I change this bahaviour of connman for scanning somehow?

    O.

    sorry, still not working

    I had found there the folder "wifi_000f004c115b_436173612d537472616c6175_managed_psk"

    Within the respective setting file "autoconnect" and "favorite" were already enabled.

    Other values (SSID name, last connect, dhcp .. ) of this file are looking reasonable.

    Any hint? O.

    thanks.

    With iwctl -> station wlan0 connect-hidden SSID -> passphrase I was able to join the hidden network interactively by console.

    But how can I persist the setting and autoconnect to hidden network after reboot in LE11?

    Any hint? Thx in advance! O.

    Dear all,

    is it possible that LE11 is not supporting "Hidden SSID" by Connection-Manager anymore?

    I tried to put my RPi2 with LE11 into operation and failed due to this missing feature.

    Is there any workaround available? Why has this feature be removed?
