FRITZ! connects – smart Wi-Fi sharing at parties

The next big party with friends is coming up and the preparations are in full swing. The food and drinks are ordered and the sound system is ready to go. But how can you make your Wi-Fi network available to your guests quickly and easily? The solution: with a QR code.

FRITZ! connects

With summer just around the corner and the temperatures rising, we can't wait to get outside and meet our friends and family for a good old party. Party the night away, catch up with everybody and enjoy good food. But a really good party also includes a stable and fast internet connection, as well as great food and the right beat. And that's exactly what FRITZ! delivers - fast Wi-Fi.

A QR code is the smart solution for getting connected to the Wi-Fi. Time-consuming typing of complicated Wi-Fi passwords is a thing of the past. With just one scan, everyone's' devices connect to the Wi-Fi network in no time at all. So now all guests can add their favorite tunes to the shared playlist and easily post their stories on social media.

Create and display QR code

In the FRITZ!Box user interface you'll find a QR code in the “Wi-Fi” menu for both your Wi-Fi at home and for guest access. There you can also print out an information sheet for both types of Wi-Fi access, which includes the relevant QR code.

There are also great alternatives to printing it out. With the FRITZ!Fon and the FRITZDECT 440, the QR code for guest access can be shown on the display. Or simply use a smartphone that's within reach – open FRITZ!App WLAN or MyFRITZ!App, display the QR code and with one scan your guests are connected. You can find more detailed information on this in this guide.

Creative ways to share your QR code

There are a number of fun things you can do with the QR code, especially at a party. Here we present three cool ideas to give your guests quick and easy Wi-Fi access.

Invitation card

Writing party invitations is an essential part of planning your get-together. Why not include Wi-Fi access at the same time? A QR code doesn't take up much space and easily fits alongside the other information.

Table stands

At a party, there are always several spots where guests like to hang out. For example, the barbecue or the chill-out corner. Small table stands can be placed in such places. Along with a witty saying, guests can connect directly to the Wi-Fi by scanning the code.

T-shirts

As the host, you have the pleasure of greeting all your guests. A T-shirt with a printed QR code is no only catches the eye, but also arouses curiosity about what will happen when you scan it. There will be a big surprise when guests find out how easy it is to connect to the Wi-Fi.
