It is possible to set up a wireless network so that it is "hidden." Hidden networks won't show up in the list of wireless networks displayed in the Network settings. To connect to a hidden wireless network:

Click the system status area on the top bar and select Wi-Fi.

Select Wi-Fi Settings.

Click the Connect to Hidden Network... button.

In the window that appears, select a previously-connected hidden network using the Connection drop-down list, or New for a new one.

For a new connection, type the network name and choose the type of wireless security from the Wi-Fi security drop-down list.

Enter the password or other security details.

Click Connect.

You may have to check the settings of the wireless base station or router to see what the network name is. It is sometimes called the BSSID (Basic Service Set Identifier), and looks something like this: 02:00:01:02:03:04.

You should also check the wireless base station's security settings. Look for terms like WEP and WPA.

You may think that hiding your wireless network will improve security by preventing people who don't know about it from connecting. In practice, this is not the case; the network is slightly harder to find but it is still detectable.
