Turn on the broadcast of the SSID so network manager can see it and
automatically connect to it.

Yes. Don't turn off the broadcast. It doesn't protect anything, and
only hinders what you actually want to do.
Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I
read messages from the public lists.

So there is not actual way of having the net manager remember the settings when not broadcasted then?
Thanks a lot!

You didn't say if you're using gnome or kde or something else.
I use KDE on F15 and also have to deal with hidden SSID - and KDE
network applet remembers it and works just fine. The passphrase is
remembered and I have no issues.
YMMV.

Try KDE - it seems to work fine for me (tho as was already mentioned,
if you have control over the AP it makes more sense to broadcast SSID
... there are zero security benefits from not doing so).
