Abstract
Network and device configuration systems and methods are described. In an embodiment, a first user interface configured to receive from a user configuration information regarding a first network provided. Program code stored in computer accessible memory is configured to generate a barcode that includes information related to the first network configuration information, wherein the barcode can be scanned by a device having a barcode scanner and a network interface to configure the network interface to access the first network.
Claims14
A configurable computing system including at least one computing device, comprising:
- a local wireless network interface;
- an optical reader;
- non-transitory memory that stores program instructions configured to cause the configurable computing system to perform operations comprising:
- receiving information read by the optical reader
- the information comprising local wireless network interface settings;
- utilizing the information read by the optical reader to configure local wireless network settings with respect to the configurable computing system wireless network interface to enable the configurable computing system to access a local wireless network without the user having to manually key in the local wireless network settings on the configurable computing system to access the local wireless network,
- wherein the local wireless network settings include at least:
- a local network identifier associated with the local wireless network, and
- a local network password needed to communicate over the local wireless network with other systems.
A method comprising:
- receiving at a configurable computing system, the configurable computing system including a local wireless network interface and an optical reader, information read by the optical reader from a machine readable optical code, the information comprising local wireless network interface settings;
- based at least in party on the local wireless network interface settings information read by the optical reader:
- configuring local wireless network settings of the local wireless network interface of the configurable computing system without the user having to manually key in the wireless network settings on the configurable computing system to enable the configurable computing system interface to access a local wireless network,
- wherein the local wireless network settings include at least:
- a local network identifier associated with the local wireless network, and
- a local network password needed to communicate over the local wireless network with other systems.
