WiFi QR Code Generator builds a PNG guests can scan to join your network. Use it for offices, events, Airbnbs, and classrooms so people do not have to type the SSID and password. In this article you will learn how to enter network details, generate the code in your browser, and download a PNG to test.

The tool is at form.ms/tools/wifi-qr-code-generator.

1. Enter network details

Open the WiFi QR Code Generator. Type the Network name (SSID). Pick WPA / WPA2 / WPA3 for most home and office routers, WEP only for old gear, or Open for a guest network with no password. Turn on Hidden network if the SSID is not broadcast.
