WiFi Settings

Store your guest WiFi network name and password. This information automatically appears on check-in confirmations, welcome emails, and room cards so guests can easily connect to your hotel's internet.

Where to Find It

Settings → Essentials → Wi-Fi Details

Before You Start

Get this information from your IT team:

  • Guest WiFi network name (SSID)
  • Guest WiFi password
  • Confirm these are for guests, not staff networks
warning

Only enter guest WiFi details. Never enter staff network credentials here.

Configuration Steps

Step 1: Enter WiFi Network Name

  • Type your guest network name exactly as it appears
  • Example: "HotelGuest" or "Resort_WiFi"
  • Case-sensitive (guests need to match this exactly)
  • Maximum 32 characters

Step 2: Enter WiFi Password

  • Type the guest WiFi password
  • Case-sensitive (exact match required)
  • Include special characters if used
  • Example: "Welcome2024!"

Step 3: Verify and Save

  1. Double-check both fields for accuracy
  2. Test on your phone if possible
  3. Click Save
  4. Wait for "Settings saved successfully"

Where Guests See This Information

After saving, WiFi details appear on:

  • ✅ Check-in confirmation screen
  • ✅ Welcome email (if enabled)
  • ✅ Printed room cards
  • ✅ Mobile check-in confirmation
  • ✅ Guest portal

Guest & Staff Impact

  • Guests see: WiFi name and password on the room card once check-in is completed.
  • Staff see: Fewer “what’s the WiFi?” questions at the front desk.

Helpful behaviors

  • Room-specific WiFi: If your WiFi name or password changes by room, include {{roomNo}} in the value. Guests will see the actual room number (e.g., HotelWiFi-101).
  • Visibility rule: The WiFi section only appears when both Name and Password are filled in.
