The problem

So I got my pairphone today, my SSID is hidden so I manual added my wifi. Phone won't connect. Then I disable hidden SSID setting in my router and the phone connects straight away. I enable hidden SSID again and wifi disconnects again. I have a Netgear R7000 with DD-wrt firmware. PS: I like the phone A LOT!! :)

Steps to reproduce Hide your SSID from your modem, phone does not connect.

What is the current behavior?

What is the expected correct behavior?
