Why does my phone go invisible when I turn it off?
If there are no network connections, either on the cellular tower network or a Wi-Fi network, then it is invisible. Turning off the phone has the same effect. But, the moment you turn it on or turn off Airplane mode, it becomes visible again.
Should you hide your WiFi network?
Hiding your wireless network is one of the best things you can do to increase the security of your home network system. It makes it much more difficult for people to mooch off of your WiFi and also makes it harder for hackers to access your system and steal important information.
You cannot prevent a device from being hidden from the network especially if you want constant connection. You can, however, mask it so it looks like a name the admin won’t recognize or that he/she thinks it’s safe. If the admin checks more than the name of the device, the first idea will immediately fail.
