During initial setup, if you successfully connected your wireless adapter to an SSID that was not broadcasting, those settings should remain intact for future sessions. However, when you reconnect the adapter to your computer later on, you may need to give the adapter 10 seconds or so to reacquire the signal from the hidden SSID and reconnect to the network. Note that the network settings must be the same as when you first set up the adapter.
