Plusnet Hub Two - Hidden Network

Belfast128 — Thu, 11 Aug 2022 13:55:12 GMT

My new Plusnet Hub Two is transmitting a "Hidden Network". I use Wi-Fi for my devices so I do not wish to turn Wi-Fi off entirely. What is this "Hidden Network" and how do I turn it off or disable it, please? I can find nothing in the Hub Manager relating to this.

Don't worry, it is a left over 'feature' from the devolopment stage. It carries no traffic and is perfectly safe to ignore. We are advised that it will be removed in some future firmware update.

There will be an option in the not too distant future to disable all Wi-Fi transmission; as long as Wi-Fi is enabled on the hub though, the hidden network is likely to remain.
