No idea - you're the first person I'm aware of who's had this problem.
I recommend you raise a bug report.

I think, in general, it does - others have working configs with SSID
disabled. Personally, seeing as there's no reason to disable the SSID

My guess would be it's got a weaker/noisier signal. Mine connects
almost instantly, if you think you have a defective unit (a few of your
symptoms could be caused by hardware problems) you should call support
and get it swapped.
