The network name exactly as it appears on the phone, and the password. If your router has a guest network, use that: it's the safest. None of this leaves your browser.
Wifi for rentals and venues
Zero passwords to type: they scan the plaque and the phone connects on its own. Generate the code, choose the two colors and download the 3MF ready to print.

Your venue's menu, your reviews page or the guide for your guests… If you don't type https:// we add it for you.
Whoever scans it connects automatically, without typing the password. The password is stored inside the code: don't share it with anyone you don't want on your network.
When scanned, the phone opens a call with the number already filled in. If you type nine digits we add the Spanish prefix +34; for other countries, type it yourself with + in front.
These are the colors of the printed object: one for the base and one for the raised code and text.
On the 3D object the logo is raised, in a single piece, in the code color.
Short and clear: your business name or a call to action. You can include an emoji: it is raised too. Up to 22 characters.
The bigger, the easier to scan. Make sure it fits on your print bed.
The 3MF file is the recommended format: it contains both colors and both parts. The STL is for older printers and software: two files without color.

How it works
The network name exactly as it appears on the phone, and the password. If your router has a guest network, use that: it's the safest. None of this leaves your browser.
Choose the two colors, add the text you want above —“WIFI”, the name of your place— and choose the size. The default 90 mm reads from the sofa.
The plaque has two holes at the top to hang it or screw it on. Next to the TV or at the entrance is where it works best.
Ideas
Anywhere people ask you for the password more than once a day.
The 11 pm message asking about the wifi disappears. One plaque in the living room and another in the main bedroom, and you never explain it again. It also cuts down bad reviews for “I couldn't connect”.
One in every room, all identical, printed in an afternoon. Much cheaper than ordering them from a print shop, and you can redo them the day you change the password.
On the bar or on every table. Customers connect without interrupting the staff, which is exactly what you want at rush hour.
The guest network for visitors, sales reps and clients, without anyone having to read a twenty-character password out loud to the whole room.
Where people spend time on their phones, easy wifi changes how they see the place.
It handles dust and humidity far better than a laminated sheet at reception.
It's not magic or an app: it's a standard that every phone understands. The code stores text in a specific format —the network name, the security type and the password— and when the camera recognizes it, the system offers to connect directly. Android has done it for years and iPhone since iOS 11, so in practice it works with any phone that walks through your door today.
Important: the code contains the password. It isn't encrypted or hidden, only encoded. Anyone who photographs the plaque can extract it. So think about where you hang it and which network you share.
Almost every router lets you create a guest network with its own password, separate from the main one. It's the sensible recommendation: whoever connects gets internet but can't see the other devices in the house —not the computer, the printer or the cameras. If you ever want to change the password, you change only that one and don't have to reconfigure your own devices.
If your router doesn't have that option, at least avoid hanging the plaque somewhere visible from the street or a window.
The default 90 mm scans comfortably from a meter away. If the plaque will hang high or in a corridor, go up to 120 mm. A long password increases the number of squares, so the tool warns you if they get too thin: in that case, make the plaque bigger or shorten the guest network password.
For contrast, the usual: a light base and a dark code. Black and white is boring but foolproof; off-white with navy blue looks much better and reads just as well.
