Cannot permanently hide SSID for 5GHz and 6GHz bands on RAXE500 Nighthawk AX12
I've had a RAXE500 Nighthawk AX12 for several months now, purchased new direct from Netgear and have discovered that it does not seem to be able to permanently keep my SSID hidden for the 5GHz and 6G...
Why provide a basic feature on a $500 router if it doesn't even work? I want my SSIDs to be hidden because it's a feature that I've used on my previous routers. When I change my SSIDs every so often, I don't want random people trying to connect to it.
Only way that random people could connect to your SSID name is if they the PW. IF you don't give this out, then you'll be fine.
