Changing hidden SSID

Sun Apr 05, 2015 5:49 pm

I'm trying to add the new name of my wireless network and new password to a configuration file. My SSID broadcast: is enabled, Authentication type is WPA-PSK, and Wireless security: is enabled.

sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
iface default inet dhcp

To change my SSID I'm trying to access:

auto lo

iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-scan-ssid 1
wpa-ap-scan 1
wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
wpa-proto RSN WPA
wpa-pairwise CCMP TKIP
wpa-group CCMP TKIP
wpa-ssid "My Secret SSID"
wpa-psk "My SSID PSK"

iface default inet dhcp
