Abstract
A computer-implemented method for connecting a vehicle to a wireless local network of a workshop includes identifying at least one wireless local network configuration of the wireless local network, said wireless local network configuration being associated with credentials for using said wireless local network; associating at least one validity parameter to said credentials in order to allow limited accessibility for the vehicle to said wireless local network; generating an encrypted visual representation of said credentials, thereby enabling the generated encrypted visual representation to be presented to a camera of the vehicle and decrypted to obtain said credentials; upon receipt of a connection request including the credentials from the vehicle, checking the at least one validity parameter to determine that the credentials are still valid for the vehicle; and upon determination that the credentials are still valid, allowing the vehicle to connect to the wireless local network of the workshop.
