Hidden SSID on bridge/repeater

[Gary.M]

I wonder if it is possible to set a hidden ssid on a bridge/repeater configured Gargoyle installation. There is no gui switch for this. Can it be done via the terminal in a config file perhaps?

Thanks, but it didn't seem to work. The relevant section of /etc/config/wireless now reads...

config 'wifi-iface' 'cfg3'
option 'device' 'radio0'
option 'network' 'lan'
option 'mode' 'ap'
option 'ssid' 'gravity'
option 'hidden' '1'
option 'encryption' 'none'

Adding in the line: option 'hidden' '1' made no difference.

Of note perhaps this file didn't have any inclusion of the 'hidden' option as it was. I had to add the entire line.
