MorphOS Wifi?
« on: March 12, 2021, 11:47:24 PM »
I recently installed MorphOS on an old 15" PowerBookG4.  The install went smoothly.

My question is about connecting to wifi.  My home network doesn't broadcast its SSID.  On other systems, I can select OTHER and enter a network name and info.  I don't see that option in the MorphOS settings.  It only offers me the visible networks.  Am I overlooking something?  Is there a way for MorphOS to connect to an invisible network?

Thanks.
Jaeson

Someone provided this link with info about using a hidden SSID with MorphOS:
https://library.morph.zone/Tips_and_Tricks#Using_WLAN_with_Hidden_SSID

Seems simple enough to mod the prefs file.  I did but my PowerBookG4 MorphOS (now fully registered) still will only connect to the network if the network is visible.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.
