Specifically, in step S11, when the screen of the user equipment is activated, device 1 detects whether the user equipment is connected to a wireless access point; in step S12, if the user equipment is not connected to a wireless access point, device 1 determines the available wireless access points corresponding to the user equipment; in step S13, device 1 displays notification information about the available wireless access points on the screen.

Here, the device 1 includes, but is not limited to, user equipment, network equipment, or a device formed by integrating user equipment and network equipment through a network. The user equipment includes but is not limited to any mobile electronic product that can interact with the user through a touch panel, such as a smart phone, a tablet computer, etc., and the mobile electronic product can use any operating system, such as the android operating system , iOS operating system, etc. Wherein, the network device includes an electronic device that can automatically perform numerical calculation and information processing according to preset or stored instructions, and its hardware includes but is not limited to microprocessors, application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), programmable gates Arrays (FPGA), digital processors (DSP), embedded devices, etc. The network device includes but is not limited to a computer, a network host, a single network server, a plurality of network server sets or a cloud formed by multiple servers; here, the cloud is composed of a large number of computers or network servers based on cloud computing (Cloud Computing) , among them, cloud computing is a kind of distributed computing, a virtual supercomputer composed of a group of loosely coupled computer sets. The network includes, but is not limited to, the Internet, a wide area network, a metropolitan area network, a local area network, a VPN network, a wireless ad hoc network (Ad Hoc network) and the like. Preferably, the device 1 can also be a script program running on the user device, network device, or a device formed by integrating user device and network device, network device, touch terminal or network device and touch terminal through a network. Certainly, those skilled in the art should understand that the above-mentioned equipment 1 is only an example, and other existing or future equipment 1 that may be applicable to this application should also be included in the scope of protection of this application, and are hereby referenced included here.

In step S11, when the screen of the user equipment is activated, the device 1 detects whether the user equipment is connected to a wireless access point.

Here, the user equipment includes but is not limited to smart phones, tablet computers and other mobile devices. For example, if the user enters a password to make the user equipment connect to a wireless access point (Wireless access point), the user equipment will automatically store information such as the name and password of the wireless access point; if the name, password, etc. of the wireless access point The information remains unchanged, and when the user equipment approaches the historically connected wireless access point again, the user equipment will automatically connect to the wireless access point. When the user short presses the power button of the user equipment or presses other buttons on the user equipment, the screen of the user equipment is activated (for example, the screen is bright), at this time, if the user equipment has been automatically connected to the history The connected wireless access point may detect that the user equipment has connected to the wireless access point. If the user equipment has been connected to Wi-Fi, the user can also find that the user equipment has connected to the wireless access point through the icon on the top of the screen, instead of using the cellular mobile network. However, the signal strength of the wireless access point is affected by factors such as distance, obstacles, and its own power, and the signal of the wireless access point cannot be received beyond a certain geographical range. When the user comes to a new place, usually the user equipment cannot automatically connect to the wireless access point.

In step S12, if the user equipment is not connected to a wireless access point, device 1 determines an available wireless access point corresponding to the user equipment.

Here, the available wireless access points include currently available wireless access points for the user equipment to connect to.

Preferably, in step S12, if the user equipment is not connected to a wireless access point, the device 1 compares the first group of wireless access points with available state information stored locally in the user equipment and the scanned information obtained by the user equipment. A second group of wireless access points is used to determine an available wireless access point corresponding to the user equipment, where the available wireless access point is included in both the first group of wireless access points and the second group of wireless access points. entry point.

Here, the available state information includes the name and config configuration of the corresponding wireless access point, and the corresponding wireless access point can be connected through the available state information. The user equipment may obtain the config configuration of the corresponding wireless access point from the server corresponding to the specific application. The server sends a wireless access point query request; if the server corresponding to the specific application stores the config configuration of the wireless access point, it will return the config configuration of the wireless access point to the user equipment; the user equipment receives After the config configuration of the wireless access point is stored locally, the wireless access point is connected to it.

For example, assume that the first group of wireless access points with available state information locally stored by a certain user equipment is A1, A2, B2, and C1, and the second group of wireless access points scanned by the user equipment at the current geographic location are A1 and A2 , A3, A4, the wireless access points A1, A2 are included in the first group of wireless access points and the second group of wireless access points, so the wireless access points A1, A2 can be determined as the user equipment corresponding available wireless access points.

Preferably, in step S12, if the user equipment is not connected to a wireless access point, the device 1 scans the user equipment to obtain a second group of wireless access points; by comparing the first group of available status information locally stored in the user equipment A group of wireless access points and the second group of wireless access points, determining an available wireless access point corresponding to the user equipment, wherein the available wireless access point is also included in the first group of wireless access points point and the second group of wireless access points.

For example, when the user equipment is not connected to a wireless access point and is still using a cellular mobile network, the user equipment performs scanning for surrounding wireless access points. In a preferred embodiment, when the user equipment is connected to a wireless access point, the user equipment does not scan surrounding wireless access points to avoid waste of system resources.

Preferably, the comparing the first group of wireless access points with available state information locally stored in the user equipment and the second group of wireless access points scanned by the user equipment includes: determining the first group of wireless access points Priority information of each wireless access point in the first group of wireless access points, wherein, each wireless access point in the first group of wireless access points has available state information locally stored in the user equipment; according to the priority information, the first group of wireless access points Each wireless access point in a group of wireless access points is compared with the second group of wireless access points scanned by the user equipment.

For example, it is assumed that the first group of wireless access points with available status information locally stored in a user equipment is A1, A2, B2, and C1, and the priority information of each wireless access point in the first group of wireless access points is A1>B2>A2>C1, the second group of wireless access points scanned by the user equipment at the current geographic location are A1, A2, A3, A4, and the first group of wireless access points is selected according to the priority information Compared with the second group of wireless access points, the priority information A1>A2 of the available wireless access points corresponding to the user equipment can be obtained. Here, factors affecting the priority information may include score, connection success rate, signal strength, and the like.

Preferably, the availability status information of each wireless access point in the first group of wireless access points is persistently stored locally in the user equipment for a predetermined period of time.

Here, if the user equipment permanently stores more available state information of wireless access points locally, more storage space of the user equipment will be occupied, and as time goes by, the available state information The occupied storage space will increase, affecting user experience. Therefore, in a preferred embodiment, the available state information of each wireless access point in the first group of wireless access points is periodically deleted. For example, the predetermined duration of local storage can be set to 7 days, assuming that the storage time of the available status information of A1 in the first group of wireless access points is November 1, and the storage time of the available status information of A2 is November 3 day, then delete the available status information of A1 on November 8, and delete the available status information of A2 on November 10.

For example, before comparing the first group of wireless access points with the second group of wireless access points, it is first checked whether the user equipment locally stores availability status information of the first group of wireless access points. If the first group of wireless access points is an empty set, there must be no wireless access point included in the first group of wireless access points and the second group of wireless access points. In a preferred embodiment, if the check finds that there is no first group of wireless access points with available status information locally stored in the user equipment, it is not necessary to compare the first group of wireless access points with the second group of wireless access points.

Preferably, if the first group of wireless access points exists, by comparing the first group of wireless access points with the second group of wireless access points scanned by the user equipment, it is determined that the user equipment corresponds to available wireless access points, including: if the first group of wireless access points exists, obtaining a second group of wireless access points by scanning the user equipment; comparing the first group of wireless access points with the A second group of wireless access points is used to determine an available wireless access point corresponding to the user equipment, where the available wireless access point is included in both the first group of wireless access points and the second group of wireless access points. entry point.

For example, when it is found that there is a first group of wireless access points with available state information locally stored in the user equipment, the user equipment scans the surrounding wireless access points to obtain a second group of wireless access points, and then An available wireless access point corresponding to the user equipment is determined by comparing the first group of wireless access points with the second group of wireless access points. In a preferred embodiment, if the check finds that the first group of wireless access points does not exist, the user equipment does not perform scanning for surrounding wireless access points, so as to avoid waste of system resources.

More preferably, the determining the available wireless access point corresponding to the user equipment by comparing the first group of wireless access points and the second group of wireless access points includes: detecting whether the user equipment has Connect to a wireless access point; if the user equipment is not connected to a wireless access point, determine the available wireless access point corresponding to the user equipment by comparing the first group of wireless access points and the second group of wireless access points Access points, wherein the available wireless access points are included in both the first group of wireless access points and the second group of wireless access points.

For example, before comparing the first group of wireless access points with the second group of wireless access points, it may also first detect whether the user equipment is connected to a wireless access point; if the user equipment is not connected to a wireless access point If the access point is still using the cellular mobile network, compare the first group of wireless access points with the second group of wireless access points to determine an available wireless access point corresponding to the user equipment. If it is detected that the user equipment is connected to a wireless access point, it is not necessary to compare the first group of wireless access points with the second group of wireless access points.

In step S13, the device 1 displays notification information about the available wireless access point on the screen.

For example, after the available wireless access point corresponding to the user equipment is determined, the user is notified of the available wireless access point in the form of the notification information for the user to select. Specifically, the notification information may be displayed in a notification bar, and the notification information may include information such as names and quantities of the available wireless access points.

Preferably, referring to Fig. 2, the method further includes step S14' and step S15'. In step S14', device 1 detects whether the notification information is triggered; in step S15', if the notification information is triggered, device 1 establishes a wireless connection between the user equipment and the available wireless access point.

For example, the manner of triggering the notification information may include: the user clicks the notification information on the screen, the user clicks a connection button in the notification bar, and the like. When it is detected that the notification information is triggered, it means that the user confirms to connect to the available wireless access point, and then enters a specific application (such as an application for connecting to Wi-Fi), and establishes the connection between the user equipment and the wireless access point through the application. wireless connection to available wireless access points.

Preferably, if the notification information is triggered to establish a wireless connection between the user equipment and the available wireless access point, comprising: if the notification information is triggered, displaying the available wireless access point on the screen One or more wireless access points; when one wireless access point is selected among the one or more wireless access points, establish a wireless connection between the user equipment and the one wireless access point.

For example, when the number of available wireless access points is one or more, the notification information is triggered, and at this time, one or more wireless access points in the available wireless access points are displayed on the screen The points are for the user to choose; when the user selects one of them, the connection between the user equipment and the wireless access point is established.

Preferably, the establishing the wireless connection between the user equipment and the available wireless access point includes: using the connection configuration information of the available wireless access point stored in the user equipment to establish the connection between the user equipment and the available wireless access point. The wireless connection of the available wireless access point; or, querying and obtaining the access information of the available wireless access point through the corresponding network device, and establishing the user equipment and the available wireless access point according to the access information point wireless connection.

For example, the connection configuration information may include config configuration, and the user equipment may use the locally stored connection configuration information of the available wireless access point to connect to the available wireless access point; the user equipment may also send the network A device (eg, a server corresponding to a specific application) sends a query request to obtain access information of the available wireless access point, and then uses the access information to connect to the available wireless access point.

Preferably, the method further includes: if the notification information is not triggered by the device 1, and the untriggered duration is equal to or greater than a predetermined duration threshold, updating the notification information.

For example, the fact that the notification information is not triggered may include: the user chooses not to connect to the available wireless access point, the user ignores the notification information, and the like. A possible scenario is that the user is currently in a moving state (for example, when riding in a car), and the available wireless access points corresponding to the user equipment change after a period of time. Here, it is assumed that the predetermined duration threshold is set to 1 minute, and after the notification information is displayed, if the user does not trigger the notification information within 1 minute, the wireless access point will be restarted according to the wireless access point currently scanned by the user equipment. Determine an available wireless access point corresponding to the user equipment, and update the notification information.

Preferably, the device 1 deletes the notification information from the screen when the number of updates of the notification information exceeds a predetermined threshold.

In a preferred embodiment, if the user does not trigger the notification information for a long time, it means that the user may not want to connect to the available wireless access point, so the notification information is deleted from the screen to avoid affecting user experience. For example, the preset number of times threshold may be set to 5 times, and when the notification information is not triggered after being updated 5 times, the notification information is deleted from the screen.

In one embodiment, if there is no available wireless access point at the current location of the user, the user equipment locally stores the available status information, the user equipment will not display the notification information about the available wireless access point. At this point, the user can open a specific application (such as an application for connecting to Wi-Fi), send a wireless access point query request to the server corresponding to the specific application through the user device, and obtain available wireless access points from the server corresponding to the specific application. The available status information of the access point, the user equipment connects to the available wireless access point through the available status information, and stores the available status information locally in the user equipment for subsequent use.
