The bottom line is that every WiFi device must somehow present the users with an interface that allows them to type in the network password. How this is solved determines the user-friendliness of the device and influences the final cost of the product as well. Here are the methods I found so far. I am sure this list will be extended and improved with details, hopefully also based on the readers' comments and feedback. 1. SD card that includes a text file with network name
