Abstract
Disclosed is an automatic registration system for home appliances, which may simplify the process of registering a home appliance using a gateway. The automatic registration system for home appliances includes a home appliance that automatically accesses a gateway using a password that is generated based on an SSID of the gateway; accordingly, the user does not feel that home appliance registration is cumbersome because the user itself does not need to connect a gateway and a home appliance.
