A method for setting wireless network devices aims at altering settings of at least one second wireless network device from a first wireless network device in a wireless transmission fashion. The method includes at least the following steps: starting a promiscuous mode on a wireless network adapter card located respectively in a first wireless network device and a second wireless network device; transmitting a search packet from the first wireless network device to the second wireless network device; returning an acknowledgement character (ACK) packet from the second wireless network device to the first wireless network device; the first wireless network device notifying an user based on the search ACK packet that setting for the second wireless network device may be started; the user ordering the first wireless network device to perform setting for the second wireless network device; the first wireless network device transmitting the setting packet to the second wireless network device; the second wireless network device returning setting ACK packet to the first wireless network device; the second wireless network device performing setting based on the setting packet; closing the network interface card in the second wireless network device; activating the network interface card in the second wireless network device; and the second wireless network device transmitting a Service Set Identification (SSID) information packet to the first wireless network device.
