Reading around the problem, I found  that some wifi drivers don't seem
to run the KeyRing Authorization routine properly if a hidden SSID is
used. This leads to the authorization not getting saved.

This FIXED it for me:  At the router, temporarily enable SSID broadcast.
Make a connection and Save. Test WiFi with Disconnect and Connect. Go
back to the router, re-disable broadcast and hide your router.  Re-test,
your connection should still work.  In theory ...

( For me, a Realtek 8187)
