N300 DGN2200v4 SSID WPS

When configuring the N300 DGN2200v4 Wireless settings, I know if SSID broadcasting is disabled, it also disables WPS.  Is it possible to not broadcast the SSID but still have password access to my wireless network?

    Hello BriCo193

     

    Yes you should be able to manually connect to the network if you know the SSID even with it not broadcasting it should still require the password.
