MorphOS wifi?
I recently installed MorphOS on an old 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. Is there a way for MorphOS to connect to an invisible network? I haven't been added to the official MorphOS mailing list yet, so I thought I'd check here to see if anyone has a solution. Thanks. Jaeson |

You can also write in https://morph.zone/news/ where is a great community and morphos developers write from time to time. |

Thanks. That page looked promising. I followed the instructions, added the scan_ssid=1 line, but it still doesn't seem to work if my SSID is hidden.
I must have registered on that site a long time ago. But the password reset doesn't seem to be working for me. |

Powerbooks have a weak wifi communication. Try putting it near the router. Certainly 5ghz ones doesnt work.
Perhaps trying a fixed ip instead dhcp. Im sure that in morphzone there are some threads about this. |
