Connect to hidden network/access point.

Hello,

I got a phone, sony xperia xa 2 that I am very pleased with.

How ever this phone can not connect to hidden wifi access points. I do not know if it depends on the hardware or the softare.The OS is Android 9. (My Iphone 11 can connect)

Does anybody know if any of the new models of phones from Sony can connect a hidden network?

I would really appricate any advice since I would like to replace my xperia with a new one.

Best regards

/Fredrik

Hi @Fredand44

When you're trying to connect to or save the hidden network, try expanding the Advanced options and select “Yes” for the “Hidden Network” option.

Hope this helps.

I finally got some time to try this out!

You were perfectly right!

I can not understand why I did not manage to do it like that when I first tried it out.

Best regards,

Fredrik
