Reading around the problem, I found that some wifi drivers don't seem to run the KeyRing Authorization routine properly if a hidden SSID is used. This leads to the authorization not getting saved.

Go back to the router, re-disable broadcast and hide your router. Re-test, your connection should still work. In theory ...
