Bug Description

After letting my laptop go to sleep, the WiFi does not reconnect anymore to an hidden access point. I must go to the WiFi settings window, then go to the menu where hidden networks are... hidden, and force Network Manager to connect to the hidden AP. Note that I don't have any problem on boot. Just when resuming for suspend mode.

This is a rather recent issue, which I never encountered before these past months. I cannot qualify exactly the time where the bug occurred.

Thank you for your bug report. gnome-control-center is just a configuration interface and doesn't have any service / doesn't handle any action when not open so it seems the issue there would rather be with the network service, reassigning
Could you get a 'journalctl -b 0' log after getting the issue and add to the bug while specifying at what time you resumed
