QR Wifi code

I was looking around in the world of QR Code today and found that you can share your WiFi (SSID, password and network type) via a QR code! It works flawless on android and probably also on other platforms. Will safe me a lot of time to tell people the password every time!

  1. Go to a QR code generator site (I used this one“).
  2. Choose “WiFi Network for Android” from the drop down list.
  3. Fill in you network details and export (to SVG of course since vector graphics rule!).
  4. Print the code and put it on the refrigerator or something ;) .
  5. Let your friends scan the code.

Awesome stuff those QR codes!

You got to love Atheros cards

So at the moment I’m over at my girlfriend parents to I have access to the internet by a nice wire. However once I get home again it will be wireless. So I had to get my wireless fixed before I got there. Now I figured that would be a real bitch since I was used to broadcom. However in the end it started to work properly. Anyway I figured that was where I would spend my morning with configuring that.

However once again it seems my gift to see the future is not fully active in the morning since I’m done withing an hour. Compiled madwifi-ng, loaded a bunch of modules. Compiled wpa_supplicant. And bang. It worked. Must be a new record.
