Our new home broadband router from Vodafone arrived with a QR code on the base. I hadn't realised what it was until I took a photo of the router password and the Samsung camera app read the QR code and offered to fill out the Wi-Fi network details.
A bit of research revealed that it was quite simple to create your own QR code with the Wi-Fi details and there are many sites to help. I liked this one for its simplicity:

Then scan with your phone camera or QR scanning app:
If you click on the arrow it imports the data into the Wi-Fi setup screen.
So now there should be no excuses for not using long, complicated passphrases for your home network. Of course you should be using 802.1X in the enterprise.
