[QUOTE="lithium1330, post: 970386, member: 137767"] Anyone else have this issue/experience - I have the network visibility of my wireless router SSID set to invisible. I have a couple of PCs, PS3 connecting to it without issue. However, when I tried to setup the connection on a newly acquired MBP, it doesn't connect. Here are the steps I used in an attempt to add the "invisible SSID/network": 1) Join Other Networks from AirPort drop down menu 2) enter my network info (network name, security (WPA), passwd. - Join 3) Connecting network.... Connection Timeout. If I turn-on the visibility, the MBP will readily connect to the router. The MBP is running 10.6.2. Thoughts/assistance? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
