wds-slave with hide-ssid=yes

[urosh]

Hello,

I’ve noticed that if network is hidden (hide-ssid=yes), AP in wds-slave mode can’t find AP in ap-bridge mode to associate with. Logs show: wlan1: failed to select channel.
In station-wds mode that works normally. I think that in earlier versions ROSv4.x you could normally use wds-slave mode, even if the ssid was hidden.
I’ve tried this on ROS versions from 5.4 to 5.7.

Is there any workaround for this issue or am i missing something?

Regards

some add on, in the wds mode, after RouterOSV5, the hide ssid mode is longer function.
