WiFi network connection method and device

Abstract

The invention provides a WiFi network connection method and device. The WiFi network connection method comprises steps that a WiFi connection request message sent by a WiFi access point is received by terminal equipment, the WiFi connection request message is sent by the WiFi access point when the terminal equipment is detected to be in a coverage scope, and the WiFi connection request message comprises the authentication information of the WiFi access point; the WiFi access point is authenticated by the terminal equipment according to the authentication information of the WiFi access point, if authentication succeeds, the WiFi access point is allowed by the terminal equipment for access, a reception WiFi connection request message is sent to the WiFi access point; the DHCP configuration information sent by the WiFi access point is received by the terminal equipment, and the terminal equipment accesses to a WiFi network provided by the WiFi access point. The method is advantaged in that automatic WiFi access is realized, and safety of the terminal equipment accessing to the WiFi network is further guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technologies, in particular to a WiFi network connection method and device. Background technique [0002] With the development of wireless communications, wireless fidelity (Wireless Fidelity, WiFi) networks have spread across various occasions, such as homes, companies, and shopping malls. Portable terminal devices (mobile phones, tablet computers, etc.), notebook computers, network set-top boxes and other devices, as well as various smart home appliances, can all access the Internet through the WiFi network. [0003] Portable terminal devices access the WiFi network through access points (Access Point, AP) such as wireless routers. Each AP can provide access to one or more WiFi networks, and the AP can set the corresponding service set for the WiFi network it provides. Identification (Service Set Identifier, SSID). When a user uses a portable terminal device to access WiFi, he needs to fir...
