Connecting your Android phone to an invisible Wi-Fi network

Hiding the Wi-Fi network is an extra measure of security that can help increase the privacy of a home connection. It is present in multi-brand routers, including D-Link and TP-Link. However, the way you connect your phone or tablet to the wireless internet changes as it is not displayed in the traditional list of available connections. In addition to the password, the user must know the exact name of the connection and also the certification protocol used by the router.

In the following tutorial, check out how to connect your Android phone or tablet to an invisible Wi-Fi network. The procedure was performed on a Xiaomi cell phone, the Redmi Note 4, with Android Nougat (7.0).
