Model: TL-WR802N  
Hardware Version: V4
Firmware Version: v0001.0

Client mode with hidden wifi:

 

I have to use my TL-WR802N in client mode.
However the wifi to which I have to connect is hidden and therefore does not appear among the SSIDs available in the quick-setup.
How can I connect to a hidden wifi network to use my tp-link in client mode and share the connection via LAN?
Thanks

Hello, do you own a WR802N router, and it is working in Client mode? Generally, the router will no longer be used for a wireless connection when you configured it into Client mode, you need to connect a PC to the WR802N LAN port to access the internet.

 

If you want to connect both wireless and wired connection to the WR802N, please try to configure it into Repeater mode, you can configure it as follows:
