Wi-Fi Network template
Last updated: 26 Jul 2026
Official optional IT pack—store SSID and password, then show a WIFI: QR after consent.
What this template is
The Wi-Fi Network template stores guest or home access-point credentials and can present a standard WIFI: QR after you confirm. Enable it under Settings → Category templates → Infrastructure & IT.
| Category slug | wifi-network |
| Pack | Official optional — nt2-template-wifi-network |
| Tier | Free |
When to use it (and when not to)
Good fits
- Home or café guest Wi-Fi for visitors
- Showing a join QR on your phone so guests scan with Camera
- Sharing SSID without reading the password aloud
Use something else instead
| Situation | Better template |
|---|---|
| Router admin password / console URL | Network Device |
| WireGuard or corporate VPN | VPN |
| One-off mixed prose | Secure Note |
Everyday workflows
- Enable the pack; store home/guest SSID + password.
- Open the item → Show to connect → confirm consent → guest scans with Camera.
- On desktop PWA, show or share the QR — the browser cannot join Wi-Fi silently.

Steps

- Under Infrastructure & IT, toggle Wi-Fi Network On.

- Fill SSID, security, and password (unless open) and Save.
- Open the item → Show to connect → confirm → show the QR to your guest.
Tips and common mistakes
- Enable pack first—Wi-Fi Network is not a core builtin.
- Consent every time—the vault does not remember QR consent across shows.
- Hide QR when done—dismiss the QR while it is shown so the screen no longer encodes the password.
- Do not use Network Device for guest Wi-Fi—that pack is admin console access.
- Clipboard auto-clear applies to copied secrets—paste within 30 seconds.
