I am currently using Binatone 150M Wireless N Router, Model No. WR1500N and i wanna hide my wifi network from others. I am using this wifi router first time thats why i don't know how to make wifi network hidden from others.

First of all person have to fill user name and then will get option for password because i don't wanna that any one will see my wifi rang and tell me to give wifi password.

Hi

Here is a link to the manual: http://www.manualslib.com/manual/815795/Binatone-Wr1500n.html?page=34#manual

On the wireless settings page, untick "Enable SSID Broadcast" Restart the router - that should do it.

You can stop the ssid being transmitted but thats it. If it is hidden no device would be able to see it. Make sure you use a strong password

Not familiar with that make of router, but you may even be able to do it in the Quick Setup, as it's a pretty basic setting. What you are looking for is an option to turn off SSID broadcasting.

Thanks to all of you. Its hidden now
