If it's connected then don't worry about it visible or not. Security setting so that only users that know the name can connect to it. Prevents your neighbours using it.
Your phone needs to obtain settings from the wifi (or have static settings configured) to enable it to resolve names to IP addresses. These settings must be configured on the router. Check your PC settings - find the network connection and see if it is set to automatically obtain settings. If not then you need to enter static settings on your phone to use it.

Thanks. Will see what I can do

From what I can work out it only gives you an alarm, does not just actually more data from being used? Am I correct in saying this?

Yup, that's about it. Not going to prevent data transfer.

Got "Data Monitor", "Onavo" and "My Data Manager" running on the the phone now and will decide which one works best. Thanks for the advice.

It will be interesting to see how the data usage compares between them all.
