Do you want to connect your Android mobile phone to a Wi-Fi network, but you don’t know the password? No problem: just someone near you has an Android mobile and is connected to it, to be able to benefit from it, without even needing to use the password. To do this, you simply need to follow these steps:

  • Enter the settings of your Android Smartphone.
  • Then access Wi-Fi.
  • Click on the name of the network that is connected. At this time, you will notice a tab that says “Wifi QR Code”.
  • Now all you have to do is access the Wi-Fi network of the second mobile phone and scan the QR code that was displayed.
  • Once this is done, both mobiles will be connected to the Wi-Fi network without you even needing to enter the password. You can then share the connection with other people by following the same procedure.

    Here are some tips to optimize and get the most out of Wi-Fi performance to comfortably enjoy all your internet activities:

    • The best way to enjoy your Internet service is to connect directly, via a network cable, all the devices that consume the most data, such as Smart TVs, computers and video game consoles. This is how you will succeed in decongesting the home Wi-Fi network.
    • Since the Wi-Fi signal is not designed to pass through walls, ceilings, doors, and other obstacles, its range mostly depends on its proper location. It is therefore recommended to place the router in a suitable place, without any obstacle, to favor an adequate propagation of the signal.
    • In order for Wi-Fi to properly reach all rooms in the house, it is also recommended to install signal extenders. For example, Claro’s 360° Wi-Fi repeaters greatly optimize the range of the wireless signal thanks to their technology.

    Good to know : it should always be considered that the contracted speed of the Internet service will be distributed among all the devices connected at the same time at home. Therefore, it is important to acquire an Internet plan adapted to your needs.

    • Activate the “Mobile hotspot” tab.
    • Set the required password.
    • To share the connection, give the person the password. And now, she can now enjoy the Internet quietly. However, remember to disable this feature once it is no longer needed.
