Can't connect to a hidden SSID #21

Problem/Motivation

My IoT network is a hidden SSID. I can't connect to this SSID.

When I connect to a non hidden SSID it is directly working. But when I want to adopt the device to my esphome it isn't working beause the standard SSID for esphome is a hidden one.

Its a esphome related, see following example what you need to add to your wifi

wifi:
  fast_connect: true
  hidden: true

for more background info esphome-docs Is this solving your issue?

Nelus82 commented 7 months ago

Yes its working now, thank you.

Had to change the wifi settings to my configuration en removed the adopt config.

Nice piece of hardware!
