Description

Port, board and/or hardware

Raspberry Pico W

MicroPython version

MicroPython v1.25.0 on 2025-04-15; Raspberry Pi Pico W with RP2040

Reproduction

  1. Try to set parameter 'hidden' via WLAN.config()
  2. Parameter unknown error

Expected behaviour

An AP with hidden SSID

Observed behaviour

Parameter unknown

Additional Information

According to the docs there should be a config parameter 'hidden' for the WLAN class, which supposingly hides the SSID when running in IF_AP mode.

However, in reality this doesn't seem to exist, and results in an error 'unknown config param'.
The Gibhub repo also doesn't show it in code (as far as I can tell).
Neither could I see a param with a different name meant for this purpose.

Perhaps this was overlooked..?
Thanks for following this up! :D
