# Connecting BACE to Default WiFi

BACE devices with WiFi capability have by default a WiFi network configured, this can be used in case the device does not have any other options to connect to the internet, e.g. cellular connection is impossible and Ethernet is not available.

Default SSID or Hotspot name: `-`

Default (Hotspot) Password: `Pd&51uJZZ$o*ZG&F`

{% hint style="info" %}
Default WiFi settings will only work is WiFi settings has not been modified to connect to an other network
{% endhint %}

The easiest option to set up a access point for the device to connect to is to enable a Hotspot on a phone, an example here on a Android phone, can be found under Settings.

Similar steps could be followed for setting up Hotspot for iOS devices. Here are a few handy links to do that.

You could also setup this access point on a router, when you do, make sure you have DHCP enabled and the router has internet, so the device gets an IP address and can connects to our servers.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.bace-iot.com/reference/connecting-bace-to-default-wifi.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
