These past few days I’ve had a lot of time at home, which is wonderful. I’ve had time to get so much done! Moving furniture, cleaning, getting ready for guests. I only just realized that since the last time most of our friends visited, we had to get a new wireless router and it came with new passwords. So I went hunting for an easy way to share the password information with our guests and I found the idea for creating a QR code to scan that would display the password information. The idea was just too good to not share!
It’s really simple! Here are the steps:
- First, write down your SSID (the name of your network) and your network password
- Go to http://zxing.appspot.com/generator/ Its the generator I used.
- Select Wifi network from the contents drop down box
- Enter the SSID and Password information in the appropriate fields
- Click Generate
- It will generate a code for you just like this:
 |
| (Yes, that is my actual password and no, I didn’t come up with it.) |
Like I said, it’s surprisingly simple. How do you manage the “what’s your wireless password!?” chaos at your house?
I'm making one right now that says Be Our Wifi Guest :}
That is seriously the best idea ever!
