Well, using kismet and iwlist you might be able to scan for almost all the 
networks around you, even if they have an hide ESSID

Sometimes you can connect, and even get an IP address but nothing further, 
that's probably cause you're being MAC filtered, in most cases this is easy 
to bypass, that's another history.

All the best,
