Hi,

To connect to wireless networks that have their network SSID broadcast
turned off, you'll have to add a wireless network entry into your wireless
network settings.

To do this, go to your Network Connections, and then right click your
Wireless Network Connection and then choose Properties.

Now click on the checkmark box that says Use Windows to configure my
wireless network settings.

Then at the bottom section there's a part that says Preferred networks.
Click on the Add button and then fill in your wireless network details.

If your wireless adapter has it's own wireless configuration utility, you
can use that rather than using Windows to configure your wireless network
settings. Just fill in the wireless network information with your adapter's
utility and you'll be connected.
