Mine I had to disable the 2nd SSID (using 2 SSID) broadcast because I use it for point to point. Its very annoying to see 2 SSID's which is you only need 1 for the public.
So thats my reason and yes it works on mine using RC7 BS9433.

I'm using it in that build, and I see it only because the profile is configured on my laptop. It shows as unknown in the wireless map (IBM thinkpad software).
hrm I was at a client's house and checked and it did pop up in his chooser.
I want it hidden becuase I'm driving around with it and do not want it popping up where ever I go... _________________ --------------------------------

I find Disable SSID broken on RC7 build 9433 on Buffalo WHR-G54S. This used to work, but is now broken. Hopefully the developers will fix what they broke.

I believe you need to post this bug in the Bugtracker for quick response.
I just tested the disable SSID setting using RC7 build 9433 on my WTR54GS and it seems to work for me. At first it was still showing up as it seemed to be somehow cached. After deleting the profile on my laptop, shutting down the laptop and starting it back up, the SSID showed up as unknown, I could tell it was the right device by the MAC address.
yes im on rc7, i was using rc5 and it works the same on both, somethings you might consider, when you set up windows to connect to a hidden ssid, it WILL show the name, so it wont appear to be hidden to YOU only cause youve set it up already, if you didnt set it up on windows then it will not come up at all, on other softwares it will just come up blank
