SSID is hidden but still shows.

RouterOS Wireless Networking

The SSID on one of my towers is hidden but it still shows when i scan. I have double that the “hide SSID” is ticked but it does not work. It is only on one internet. I have a r52 in that slot. Can it be that the mini card is doing it?

Silly question but did you click “Apply” after ticking the check mark?

PS I works fine on my R52 based APs with R411 boards. What ROS version are you using?

I have double checked and it is applied. And the box “Hide SSID is clicked”. Im using ROS 3.30 on all my routers and only the one is doing it.

I have just done some test. I used a rb433 and when i do a scan i see that it shows only the AP mac address but after 2 seconds it also shows the ssid. My laptop does not show the ssid but my senao router does

Check if WDS is enabled.

WDS is disabled. I have reset interface to default settings. It is working correct now.
