Hi, after more discussion with thaller on NM, there actually seems to be a bug, as the wifi is properly detected at one point and a while later it is not in the cache - which seems might not been happening on the version shipped with debian 9 and therefore would work even without hidden=true (this is from log where i run it without that option) ....

Not sure if this new behaviour of having to explicitly set hidden=true is deliberate or considered a bug (given that it breaks existing connection profiles)
