Advanced Wireless Settings (2.4GHz b/g/n)
Enable SSID Broadcast <check box

that does not do anything? i have a device that only connects to 2.4ghz and it still connects to the wifi network? plus both 2.4ghz and 5ghz and under the same name as in i think they are merged?
Devices are funny about "Hidden Networks". I may be mistaken, but what I remember is sometimes the device has to be told to "forget" a network.
