This project is an open-source and freely accessible solution for creating customized Guest Wi-Fi landing pages with Rotating QR Codes tailored to Cisco Meraki wireless networks.
This project's rotating QR Code dynamically updates daily by changing the wifi password, keeping the user pool fresh every day.
Utilizing Cloudflare Pages and the open-source framework of this project, you can effortlessly display your customized Guest Wi-Fi page.
Thanks to Cloudflare's reliable usage models, there are no associated fees, subscription costs, or ongoing maintenance requirements, making this solution equally accessible to individuals, small businesses, and organizations.

const api_key = '';
const network_id = '';
const ssid_number = '';
- Replace the values with your Meraki credentials accordingly.
Setting up a custom domain requires the domain to be added to Cloudflare under the "Websites" tab, as this process will add a new CNAME attribute to the domain's DNS configurations.
Make sure to update the Walled Garden ranges if previously configured! Both the Cloudflare page url and the custom domain name must be added!
- Select the "Workers & Pages" tab on the sidebar.
- Select the pages project you want to set up a custom domain for.
- Select the "Custom domains" tab in the main section.
- Click the "Setup a custom domain" button.
- Enter the domain you want to configure as the custom domain name.
- Click the "Activate Domain" button at the bottom of the page.
- Success! Check out your new domain in a few minutes at
https://<custom-domain>
.
Updating your deployment is as easy as it comes!
Simply commit your changes to the repository used to create the page, and Cloudflare will automatically build and deploy the next version for you! This can be altered, though, to only automatically deploy to a preview branch rather than production.
