I have a hidden network and I always connected it to work. I was successfully connected yesterday after the install and when the system went to sleep it dropped the connection. Now I am unable to 'see' the network and connect to it.

When I try to manually connect to this network, opening Network and Sharing Center > set up a new connection or network > manually connect to a wireless network > enter correct network info, it tells me that the network already exists. When I hit use the exiting network, it does not pop a connect to a network dialog so I can connect.

How can I configure W8 to automatically connect to this network when in range?

Thank you.
