Hi waihongso and WaiMan,

The problem deemed to be solved after I upgrade the firmware to the latest one (released on 3 Aug 2020). You can download them (for both router and satellite) through the link below:

Hi WaiMan,

Please log into the router by visiting the admin page. Then click on ADVANCED>Advanced Setup>Wireless Settings and uncheck the "Enable SSID Broadcast" box.

Hi Christian,

I unchecked the box and click "apply", but my SSID still appear in the wifi list. This function deemed to be not working. Would you advise another method to hide the SSID? Many thanks.
