Package: broadcom-sta-source Version: 5.100.82.112-8 Severity: normal Updating from Squeeze to Wheezy on my MacBook Air and recompiling wl as explained on http://wiki.debian.org/wl made me unable to connect to a hidden network anymore. Connecting to a non-hidden network fully works. I tried both methods listed on the wiki package, the one for Squeeze and the one for Wheezy. I faced the issue in both cases. Booting back on Wheezy with the 2.6.32-5 kernel also enables me to connect to a hidden network with wpa_supplicant and the same wpa_supplicant.conf file.
