WiFi QR Code Generator

Create a Wi-Fi QR code using the exact network name, password, and security type.

Example: generate a code for your Guest WiFi network, then test it with a phone before displaying it. People who can scan the code can use the included network credentials.

How to use this planning tool

Enter the exact Wi-Fi network name (SSID), choose its Security Type, and enter the password for a secured network. Select Generate Wi-Fi QR Code, then use Download QR Code to save the image. Capitalization, spaces, and punctuation in the network details must match the router’s settings.

​

OPEN NETWORKS AND PASSWORDS

​

For a network with no password, choose None ( Open Network ) in the Security Type field and leave the password blank. There is no separate “no password” option in the password field. For WPA / WPA2 or WEP, enter the correct password. A blank password should not be used to describe a secured network.

​

HIDDEN-NETWORK SETTING

​

Enable Hidden Network only when the router does not broadcast the network name. This setting describes the network; it does not hide or encrypt the credentials inside the QR code. If the router’s settings change, generate a new code with the updated information.

​

TEST BEFORE SHARING

​

For example, create a code for a guest network using its actual SSID and security settings. Scan the downloaded image with a compatible phone while in range and confirm the connection prompt and network name. Device support varies, and a phone may request confirmation rather than connecting automatically. Keep the square image sharp and preserve its blank border when printing.

​

The current generator sends the entered network details to an external QR-image service to create the code. Anyone who can access the code can recover its included credentials. Share it only with intended users, preferably for a guest network, and replace distributed codes if those credentials change.
