WiFi Security Best Practices
Password Protection
Always use WPA2 or WPA3 encryption for your WiFi network. Avoid WEP as it's easily compromised. Our generator supports all security types but strongly recommends WPA2/WPA3 for optimal security.
Guest Networks
Consider creating a separate guest network with limited access. Many modern routers allow you to set up guest networks with restricted bandwidth and local network access.
QR Code Security
While QR codes encrypt your password, be mindful where you display them. Place them in secure areas rather than publicly visible spaces to prevent unauthorized access.
Security Tip: Change your WiFi password every 6-12 months, especially if you've shared the QR code with many people. Generate a new QR code each time you update credentials.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to share my WiFi password via QR code?
Yes, the password is encoded in the QR code and isn't visible unless someone scans it. The code follows the standardized WiFi URI format (WIFI:S:SSID;T:Type;P:Password;;) which modern devices understand natively.
Can I create a QR code for a hidden network?
Absolutely! Select "Hidden Network" from the Network Type dropdown. The generated QR code will include the necessary parameters to connect to hidden SSIDs.
What devices can scan these WiFi QR codes?
Most modern smartphones (iOS 11+, Android 9+) can scan these codes using their native camera apps. For older devices, any QR code scanner app will work, though some may require an extra step to connect.
Can I customize the appearance of my QR code?
While this generator creates standard black-and-white QR codes for maximum reliability, you can use image editing software to add logos or colors after downloading, provided you maintain sufficient contrast.
Do you store my WiFi credentials?
No. All processing happens in your browser. We never send your network information to our servers. You can verify this by checking your browser's network traffic while using the tool.
