Wi-Fi connection control method and system

Abstract

The invention provides a Wi-Fi connection control method and system. A user terminal synchronously joins a Wi-Fi Aware network built by a Wi-Fi AP, monitors a service discovery frame periodically broadcast by the Wi-Fi AP in the Wi-Fi Aware network, then scans a beacon frame periodically broadcast by the nearby Wi-Fi AP, and determines whether parameter information of the beacon frame exists in aparameter information group of the service discovery frame; and if existing, the user terminal accesses to a hot spot of the Wi-Fi AP. The method and the system can realize signaling interaction between a smart phone and a store router so that the smart phone is automatically and securely connected to the store router, and can detect a phishing router that may exist in the store, thereby preventing a user from accessing to the phishing router to avoid unnecessary loss of the user.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication control, in particular to a Wi-Fi connection control method and system based on Wi-Fi Aware technology. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, when customers go to shopping malls, restaurants, amusement parks and other public places for consumption, most merchants will provide free Wi-Fi network services to customers in the store to facilitate customers to surf the Internet. At the same time, the ever-emerging Wi-Fi security issues have attracted more and more people's attention. Many media have reported that customers connect to phishing routers (fake routers with the same name and password as the routers of the merchants), resulting in The news that the bank account password was stolen caused a loss to the customer's property. Some existing technologies, ranging from posting the Wi-Fi account password in a conspicuous place in the store by the merchant, to scanning the Q...

Problems solved by technology

At the same time, the ever-emerging Wi-Fi security issues have attracted more and more people's attention. Many media have reported that customers connect to phishing routers (fake routers with the same name and password as the routers of the merchants), resulting in The news that the bank account password was stolen, causing losses to the customer's property

Some existing technologies, ranging from posting the Wi-Fi account password in a conspicuous place in the store by the merchant, to scanning the QR code of the merchant (the QR code contains the Wi-Fi account password), cannot prevent customers from mistakenly connecting to the phishing router; There are also some methods that require customers to install applications such as Wi-Fi security manager on their smartphones. For customers, not only do they need to download additional applications, but the application will occupy the memory of the smartphone
