Dear Scole,
Thank you! I will try it out next time I am in the same situation!
Sincerely,

I'm not sure if you have a similar set up, but thought I'd share this
since it took me awhile to figure out. This configuration worked for me
when trying to use a password-less wifi with an athn device. I changed
athn0 to iwi0 below...
In /etc/rc.conf:
dhcpcd=YES
dhcpcd_flags="-g -4 -q -b -n iwi0"
wpa_supplicant=YES
wpa_supplicant_flags="-i iwi0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf"
In /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant/
network={
scan_ssid=1
ssid="ks-guest"
# or try this instead of ssid=,
# I think the capital letters are required
#bssid=10:BD:18:F0:26:F2
key_mgmt=NONE
}
and then running

I had a lot of trouble trying to backquote network names with
parentheses or quotes in the ssid field so I used the bssid instead.
I'm not sure if "-" will have the same issues.
Good luck
