Security tips
Treat the printed QR like the password itself. Prefer a guest network with limited access. Rotate guest credentials periodically and print a new static Wi‑Fi QR—or use a dynamic QR that points to a page with current instructions.
FAQ
Is the password visible in the QR?
Yes—the payload includes credentials. Anyone with the code can join. Do not post guest QR codes on public websites.
