SSID Broadcast in WLC4402 and connecting problem.

[Lasse.Pekka]

When there are multiple wlans in the preferred networks list and I disable SSID broadcast, Windows XP client would not connect to network even if it`s first in the preferred network list. If I enable broadcast, connecting to network works just fine. Have anyone solved this problem?

Typically I see that issue with only some wireless cards. Turning off SSID broadcast doesn't really gain you much in the way of securing your network. There is freeware that can find the SSID of your network with the broadcast off.
