  1. hide the hidden network


    I have already hidden my wifi from neighbors but still on my laptop its showing two wifi network

    the one is my original network lets say zx, below it a network name is coming "hidden network".


    if my neighbors can see a wifi network with named called hidden network then what's the point of hiding....I want they to feel nothing in the air



    only its seen on my laptop not on my mobile....I think may be its visible on their laptop too..



    pics have been attached

  3. Delete "hidden network"

    Hi,

    Deleting or Blocking available networks can only be done using Command Prompt. Follow the steps below:

    • Open Command Prompt.
    • Type netsh wlan add filter permission=block ssid="WLAN name"
      networtype=infrastructure (Replace WLAN name with "hidden network" or the name of the wireless network you want to block) and press
      Enter.
    • Close Command Prompt.
    To remove/delete the network from the block list. Replace "add" with "delete" on the command in step two.

    Looking forward to your response.

    network id and doman change option hide

    Hi,

    A domain-based network gives a network administrator a way to manage an entire network or server.

    For us to better assist you, please answer the following questions:

    • Are you logged in as an administrator?
    • When you say "domain option is hidden", does that mean that the
      Join a domain
      option is hidden or the domain name cannot be found?

    In the meantime, as an initial troubleshooting, we suggest following the troubleshooting steps provided on this

    thread
    which were found helpful in resolving the issue.

    We'll keep an eye out for your response.
