    Of course you can, you need to write an application that reads the QR code and connects WIFI to the device.

    Write more why are you looking for such a solution?

    There are routers that have a separate 'guest' WIFI network.

    Then set them a guest network without a password or with a different password than you have, what's the problem?

    Hello
    I would like to know if it is possible to connect to my home network via a QR code. I mean, if a friend comes, I don't want to give him the WIFI password, just scan his QR and automatically connect to the router. Can this be done?


    Go to: https://www.qrstuff.com/
    Select from the menu on the left: Wifi Login
    Enter the SSID and password.
    Generate a QR code and print it.

    This should be what you are looking for.

    You have a simple solution in the post number 4 .


    But he was asking for something else. Your answer did not bring anything.

    I have provided a solution that does not require code scanning, which can easily be bypassed anyway. More importantly, it is available from the router's menu.
    I do not judge you whether my answer brought something or not.

    I do not negate what you advised him, because all working solutions and access issues can be dealt with in many ways. I only deliberately pointed out that the question specifically concerned QR codes in terms of access to the network and this should probably be the answer. On the other hand, I do not intend to play the thread author's spokesperson, so further discussion of the author's intentions does not make much sense.

    Or maybe combine both solutions, i.e. set separate Wi-Fi "For guests", and this is what access to it through a QR code?

Topic summary

Connecting to a home WiFi network via QR code is feasible and can enhance guest access without sharing the main password. Users can generate a QR code containing the WiFi SSID and password using online tools like QRStuff. Additionally, routers like the TP-Link TL-WR1043NDv3 offer a guest network feature that can be utilized for secure access. This allows guests to connect without needing the main WiFi password, and combining both methods—setting up a guest network and providing access through a QR code—can be an effective solution.
