Description

WIFI connection method and system for mobile terminal

technical field

The invention relates to the field of network communication, in particular to a WIFI connection method and system for a mobile terminal.

Background technique

Existing mobile terminal equipment usually accesses the Internet by connecting to 3G, 4G GPRS mobile network or WIFI. Since the GPRS mobile network service provided by communication service providers has a slow network speed and relatively expensive tariffs, terminal devices mostly use WIFI networks with fast network speeds and low tariffs to connect to the Internet.

When the mobile terminal connects to WIFI, it first scans the SSID code that can be connected to WIFI through the WIFI module, then selects the available SSID code and then enters the WIFI password. After the AP (Access Point, network access point) verifies the WIFI password, the mobile terminal can be authorized. The terminal is connected to the Internet. When an existing mobile terminal is connected to a free and open public network, it cannot directly access the Internet after connecting to an open AP through TCP, because usually the AP will temporarily disable the WAN interface and perform user registration or identity verification first. At this time, you need to manually enter user identity information such as a mobile phone number. After the AP registers or verifies the identity information, it will send a verification code text message to the mobile phone number. into the Internet. This WIFI connection method requires the user to manually enter information and verification codes. It takes a long time to wait for the verification code text message. When the mobile network signal is not good, the verification code text message may not be received. The entire registration verification process is very cumbersome and time-consuming.
