Abstract
A computing device may receive, based on a scan of a bar code associated with a device, information associated with the bar code. The information may be used to retrieve a dedicated activation service set identifier (SSID), which may be sent to one or more gateways. A first gateway may indicate that it is connected to the device using the dedicated activation SSID, and the device may be connected to the first gateway using a specific SSID that is different from the dedicated activation SSID.
