Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Is disabling SSID broadcast a good idea? Disabling SSID broadcast only hides the network name, not the fact that it exists. Your router constantly transmits so-called beacon frames to announce the presence of a wireless network. They contain essential information about the network and help the device connect.
Detailed explanation-2: -Disabling the SSID broadcast stops the router from sending out the wireless network’s name, making it invisible to users. However, this only hides the name from showing up on device lists of nearby networks. The network itself is still there, since people still need to use it.
