Motorola Droid X2 :: Couldn't Connect To A Hidden SSID
Jan 9, 2012
Id been looking on the net all morning to try and figure out why i couldn't connect to a hidden SSID. I found that this is still an issue, there are a few workarounds. I tried the hidden SSID from the market and it dosent seem to work, just says that it cant find the SSID. Since I have access to the router, i enabled the SSID to broadcast, then turned it back off after I have connected it. It seemed to pick it up after it had connected to it once. However, im hoping that it wil be the same way in the morning.

If I unmask my WiFi network, I can connect to it with my Droid Razr.
If I turn off broadcasting, I know its still there - I have laptops and an iPhone that still find it an can connect to it. But my new RAZR doesn't seem to know how to locate/connect to it .
What settings do I need to change to get this to work.

I prefer to hide my wireless SSID but when I do this my android devices don't see the network. Even if I am already connected with my Xoom then switch to hidden SSID mode the Xoom disconnects. Same for my HTC Thunderbolt. My network is shown in the list of remembered networks as out of range. When in hidden mode. This does not affect my laptops.
They stay connected if I switch to hidden mode and they have a setting to connect to hidden networks that have previously been configured. I cannot find a setting for hidden network support on either android device. Hiding the SSID is not a new concept. Is this not supported in the android network stack? I have a strong random PW on my wifi so I am not terribly worried about it but I would be nice to have the option.

I have just bought an Atrix 4g european version. A great phone, but is there a bug in the operating system ? (2.3.4 was preinstalled) When I try to connect to my home network via wifi and the router is not broadcasting the SSID, the phone cannot connect. When I change the router so the SSID is being broadcast, the phone can connect and has an "excellent" connection. My other mobile phone (HTC diamond 2) and laptop can both connect to the router when it is not broadcasting the SSID, so the router is okay.

Went to tether my Bionic to my laptop this AM and realized I didn't have a USB cable with me. I called VZW to get the wireless hotspot enabled on my phone for a couple days. Check. Went to settings to turn on the Hotspot. Nothing. nada. zip. Got a message saying it was retreiving the agreement, and then got a message that said I needed to call VZW to enable the feature. But I just did that. Reboot the phone. Try again. Same thing.Call VZW back, they verify I was indeed provisioned for hotspot, and tell me to reboot the phone. Still doesn't work. Get handed off to a technician.Reboot the phone again. No go. Turn the Bionic off and pull the SIM. Re-seat the SIM, boot up the phone, still no hotspot.I'm now almost 90 minutes into trying to get my Bionic's hotspot feature to work (because I wanted to avoid a trip to buy an overpriced USB cable). Tech says we'll have to do a hard reset. I decline and tell him I'll add this feature to my list of disappointments with my Bionic. He asked if there was anything else I needed, and I said the release date for the ICS update, but of course, they couldn't help me with that.

I have my home network set to "disable SSID Broadcast" which make my network name invisible when a device including my phone scans for wi-fi's; when I enable SSID Broadcast my phone can see the network name and it can connect to it when I input the network password...no problem so far, works perfectly! but when I disable again the SSID Broadcast then the phone gets disconnected. I try to connect to the network with SSID Broadcast disabled (the phone shows a wi-fi location with no name but stored which I assume it's mine) I type the SSID name and password but it won't connect again until the SSID Broadcast is enabled.
For security purposes I like to keep the SSID Broadcast disabled but then I can't connect my phone to the network. I have 2 desktops, 1 laptop, a Xbox and a Wii all connected wirelessly; I don't know why is not working with my phone.

My wireless does not broadcast its SSID - but it appears that the MOTOACTV will only allow you to connect to a WiFi that's broadcasting it.
Is it possible to manually add your WiFi when it does not broadcast the SSID?

provide the ability to create a trigger based upon the presence of a secure network SSID (i.e. not one you are connected connected to )? I need to trigger an action when a secure network, for which I do not have the password, is detected.

I've bought Nokia c3-00 for almost two weeks but still couldn't connect to the wlan, internet, mail, chat or community. Every time I try to connect this message always appears "Temporary Network Problem" and "Link Not Available." Only the Bluetooth that works well. Is it because my phone has some problem or my network provider doesn't provide proper service for me?

Received my Lumia 950 XL with Windows 10 last week, and all so far so good. However, I have a few clients that a visit regularly that use hidden WIFI networks or networks that do not broadcast. These normally have to be setup manually on the device, but I can't find anywhere in Windows 10 phone settings to deal with a manual wifi connection setup?

Cannot connect phone to Vista PC, even after making sure Motorola device drivers are up-to-date. Device manager shows a Motorola G drive working properly, but removable disk G in explore shows no media present.
Also tried Remote Web Desktop from Smart Dog and cannot get an IP connection either. Have a solid WiFi connection, and tried disabling 3G.

My phone (DROID 3, less than a year old) won't connect to my computer, and I'm not sure if the issue is the phone or the computer. I have done all I can do on Motorola's troubleshooting/guided assistance pages. Downloading new drivers, restarting, and updating software hasn't worked. I'm using a Gateway laptop with Windows 7, and before the holiday season just passed my phone and my computer got along fine. Now, not so much, and I haven't done anything deliberate to cause this. No damages etc.My phone will begin charging when plugged into any USB port on my computer, and the computer recognizes something happened but a little alert bubble pops up saying "USB Device Not Recognized" each time. I can't access any of my phone's files from my computer the way I used to be able to, AutoPlay does not start up, and nothing I've done so far has worked to fix these issues.

Motorola Droid (2.2 system); had it almost 2 years. Browser wont' connect to anything...not even google.
Click on "Browser" icon and get message "www.google.com - The page does not support your version of browser. Please update your software" with a browser update button. (I don't click on things I don't request).When I try "google search" icon I get search page but any search results in the same message as above.Click on "Market" I get "Attention - A server error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous screen."Trying any other apps results in various message that say they have problems communicating with the server.

i have two droid razrs on my verizon account. they are both currently with no service due to my brother sticking me with a 1500 dollar phone bill that being said one of them will not connect to wifi says "error" and thats all and the bluetooth isnt working either during my research i have found others with this same problem but no solution if neither connected i would probably shrug it off as verizon shut off my wifi access but that is not the case i have done hours of research and cant seem to find a solution on my own so my question or rather questions are as follows: How do i fix this issue if even possible? What could have caused this issue? What can i do to prevent this from happening again? Should i just try and get a replacement when i pay my bill and get service reconnected? my phones are not rooted or altered in anyway they are stock exactly the way you buy them at verizon store?

I tried to connect to my Droid Bionic to my computer today and it does not give me an option to connect via USB...it just say's charging. There is nothing in the notifications dropdown area and the drivers are not showing in the device manager inside windows 7 Pro 64bit.
I uninstalled the drivers and rebooted then installed them again but still nothing.
I tried this on 3 computers both 64 and 32 bit. The cable is good and it is the one that came with the phone. It does charge but no data transfering.

suddenly my SD card decided that it was going to disappear, and even though it's there, my phone is not detecting it. I pulled the battery, removed the SD card and plugged it into my computer via adapter (not phone) and was able to access it. I put the SD card back in my phone, power up then go to Settings>SD Card & phone storage and under 'Mount SD card' it says "Insert an SD card for mounting". Okay ... so a few days later I exchanged SD cards with a "droid" friend and she was able to detect my card in her phone, but again my phone is not detecting her card. Bummer... Also, when I plug my phone into my computer via USB to Mac I am unable to establish a connection. I am using Android File Transfer. I have tried to format SD card (FAT32) with Disk Utility and still nothing... So I'm almost convinced that my phone is damaged. It was working last week.

So on saturday I tried manually installing the ICS update from over on droidforums. net.I know I know that is not advisable by most people However whats done is done.The install failed.I used the droid utility 1.7 to put gingerbread back on my phone.The phone works.I can go online, connect to wifi, make calls and doing everything like normal.I do however have a questions that i'm wondering if they are related to what I did.
1. I can't connect to 4G all of a sudden.I am only in a 4G area while i'm at work so the time I have to troubleshoot is limited.I did however read that other people are having a problem as well.I went to a store and they gave me a new sim card which didn't change anything.She believes its just the network.I guess time will tell on that.
2. I called customer support about the 4G thing and while going through the trouble shooting the guy asked for my IMEI number.in my phone it says unknown.I don't know if it ever showed a number but he seemed shocked that it said unknown so of course I think its something I did. i never told him or anyone at the store about trying to install the update in fear of them refusing to help me.
3.When I turn my phone on and the screen is loading up it takes a minute for it to get a signal.I sits there with a red circle with a line through it for a minute then the screen refreshes and I get service and 3G.Also while the screen is loading up I get a message in a blue box towards the bottom of the screen that says "Have a great day!" Which as nice as that is I never noticed that before.

AT&T U-verse just replaced my wireless gateway, and I can't get my Droid 2 to connect to it no matter what. I've tried entering the 10-digit network key (WPA/WPA2 PSK) many times, and I just get Scanning... then Connecting... then Disconnected. I've deleted the old "remembered" network and started from scratch, but it won't connect. My other wireless devices can connect to it fine.

I have both a CommandOne bluetooth, and a Jabra Stone....both of which pair with my Droid X, but don't communicate....they both did at one time (the CommandOne stopped communicating during a conversation)....the Jabra who knows when it quit. Now I have two BT's neither of which I can use. I keep thinking I must be doing something wrong, but damned if I can figure it out. This should be pretty straight forward. I've turned off BT, and the restarted the phone, done multiple Discoveries, multiple retrys at connecting.

The only change is that I have moved, and have gone to a wireless network. I have tested on the web access via the PC and everything comes up fine. It just is not able to connect on the Bionic.

From the documentation the Razr is supposed to support USB Host out of the box and allow connectivity of USB devices that do not require special drivers.Specifically mentioned were USB keyboards - which is the sole reason I purchsed the Razr over the Galaxy. I have a standard USB to micro USB adapter that I've used to connect to the phone. However, the input is not recognized.How do I go about connecting a USB keyboard to the Razr so that the input is recognized
