[TriLUG] wifi access to network with no SSID

[Neil L. Little]

perhaps that is how they are enforcing security. Connecting by mac address.
look at the mac address of a connected host. spoof that address. send a 
disconnect to the wap.

There are other ways to force a connection but they are kinda black hat 
(airdrop.ng).
