+==== Wifi Connect with LCD ====
+\\
+If you have completed the wiki page [[using_pico_with_ssd1306_based_lcd|Using Pico with SSD1306 based LCD]] and you still have your LCD, then you can use this following code to:
+  * Connect to the Wifi
+  * Print IP to LCD
+Download the code below and save it to your Pico as lcd-test-wifi.py
+<code:python | download>
+from machine import Pin, I2C
+import ssd1306
+import network
+import time
+#------------- wufi connect --------------------
+wlan = network.WLAN(network.STA_IF)
+wlan.active(True)
+ssid = "YOUR-SSID"
+password = "YOUR-WIFI-PASSWORD"
+wlan.connect(ssid, password)
+while not wlan.isconnected():
+    print("Connecting...")
+    time.sleep(0.5)
+#Print your IP address
+print("Connected!")
+print(wlan.ifconfig())
+#------------------------------------------------
+#-------------- LCD Show ------------------------
+# Your wiring: SDA=GP4, SCL=GP5 → I2C0
+i2c = I2C(0, scl=Pin(5), sda=Pin(4), freq=200000)
+lcd = ssd1306.SSD1306_I2C(128, 64, i2c)
+lcd.fill(0)
+lcd.text("Yo Tuesday Club!", 0, 0)
+lcd.text("SSD1306 LCD", 0, 16)
+lcd.text("Address 0x3C", 0, 32)
+#converts IP information (its a tuple, kinda like an array, into a string)
+ip = wlan.ifconfig()[0]   # first item = IP address
+lcd.text("IP: " + ip, 0, 48)
+lcd.show()
+#------------------------------------------------
+time.sleep(300)
+lcd.fill(0)
+lcd.show()
+</code>
+If this has worked then you should see something similar to below.

+Here we can see the last line on the LCD is my Pico IP Address
