Of course, in practical applications, the user equipment is not limited to the above presentation form, and may also include: intelligent vehicle-mounted terminal, computer equipment and the like.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic view of an electronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, fig. 1 is a schematic view of an electronic device 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, where the electronic device 100 includes: the touch screen display comprises a shell 110, a circuit board 120, a battery 130, a cover plate 140, a touch display screen 150 and an antenna 170, wherein the circuit board 120, the battery 130 and the cover plate 140 are arranged on the shell 110, and the circuit board 120 is also provided with a circuit connected with the touch display screen 150; the circuit board 120 may further include: application processor AP190, modem 180. The modem 180 may be specifically integrated in the AP190, and certainly in practical applications, the antenna 170 may also be separately disposed, and the antenna 170 is connected to the modem 180 through at least one circuit, and the antenna 170 may be a single antenna, and certainly in practical applications, the antenna 170 may also be a dual antenna or multiple antennas, and when the antenna is multiple antennas, the antenna may form an antenna array, and the specific implementation manner of the present application is not limited to the specific representation form of the antenna.

The touch Display screen may be a Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display (TFT-LCD), a Light Emitting Diode (LED) Display screen, an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) Display screen, or the like.

For an intelligent terminal of an android operating system, a STA + SAP (station + Soft Access Point) coexistence scheme is generally supported for network hotspots, and thus, hotspots started by a WLAN connection network through the device (for example, a smart phone, a tablet computer, or a personal digital assistant) can be shared with other devices. However, the STA + SAP coexistence status of the system can only be determined by default when the system version is compiled, and cannot be dynamically set in the framework, so that different execution status flows may be executed when coexistence is started. When the personal hotspot and the WLAN network sharing function need to be interactively separated, it is difficult to interactively separate the personal hotspot and the WLAN network sharing function from the execution flow, if the terminal that opens the personal hotspot is terminal 1, the terminal that receives the personal hotspot is terminal 2, and the access point of the terminal 1 that accesses the network is AP1, the channel between the terminal 1 and the AP1 may be channel 1, and the corresponding network segment may be network segment 1, which may specifically be: 192.168.43.1, the channel between terminal 1 and terminal 2 may be channel 2, and its corresponding network segment may be segment 2, and specifically may be: 192.168.43.1, so that segment 1 is identical to segment 2 for terminal 1, so that terminal 1 cannot distinguish whether the message belongs to terminal 2 or AP1 through the segment of the message, which may cause confusion in transmitting the message and affect user experience.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 provides a network segment management method for a personal hotspot, as shown in fig. 2, the method is executed by an electronic device, where the electronic device may be a mobile terminal, a tablet computer, a personal digital assistant, an intelligent vehicle-mounted terminal, and the like of an android system, and the android system may specifically be an android system and other systems developed based on the android system. As shown in fig. 2, the method comprises the steps of:

step S201, when the network sharing is started, connecting an access point AP of an on-line wireless local area network WLAN, and acquiring a first network segment of the wireless local area network WLAN;

the first channel of the WLAN in step S201 may be specifically a first network segment transmitted between the electronic device and the AP in the WLAN manner, and specifically may be: 192.168.43.1, 192.168.43.2, etc., and the present application is not intended to be limited to the specific representation of the first segment.

Step S202, a second network segment of a soft access point (English: soft access point, short: softap) is obtained;

the second network segment of the soft access point in step S202 may be that after the electronic device starts the personal hotspot, the electronic device is connected to the network segment of the electronic device through the personal hotspot, and the connection mode of the personal hotspot may also be one of wifi, bluetooth, and the like. The second network segment may specifically be: 192.168.43.10 or 192.168.43.11.

Step S203, determining whether the first network segment is the same as the second network segment, if so, modifying the first network segment or the second network segment to make the first network segment different from the second network segment (i.e., the modified network segment).

The judgment of whether the first network segment is the same as the second network segment may specifically be to judge whether the addresses of the first network segment and the second network segment are the same, if so, determine that the first network segment is the same as the second network segment, if not, determine that the first network segment is different from the second network segment.

The modification of the first network segment or the second network segment may be specifically that the first network segment is different from the second network segment, and one of the first network segment and the second network segment is modified while the other is unchanged, so that the first network segment is different from the second network segment. Specifically, if the first network segment and the second network segment are both: 192.168.43.1, the first segment could be modified from 192.168.43.1 to 192.168.43.10, and the second segment could be kept unchanged, or the reverse could be done in practice, that is, the second segment could be modified from 192.168.43.1 to 192.168.43.10, and the first segment could be kept unchanged.

The technical scheme provided by the application provides that when the personal hotspot realizes network access, a first network segment of the WLAN and a second network segment of the softap are obtained, when the two network segments are the same, the two network segments are adjusted to be different, so for the electronic device, as the first network segment of the WLAN is different from the second network segment of the softap, the transmitted message can be distinguished to be the WLAN or the softap through the network segments, therefore, the confusion of the message can not be generated, and the experience degree of a user is improved.

Optionally, the method may further include:

The above alternative solution implements the difference between the first network segment and the second network segment by modifying the second network segment, which is easier to modify than the first network segment, because for WLAN, the number of electronic devices under the access point of the WLAN may be large, and if a modification is made to the first network segment, although the network segment of the WLAN is not the same as the network segment of the softap, it is possible that within the access point, the modified network segment of device 1 is the same as the network segment of device 2, so that the access point cannot distinguish device 1 from device 2, so modifying the first segment of the WLAN is not a preferred solution, for the second segment, since the number of terminals that are accessed by its personal hot spot is typically 1, it need not consider whether it conflicts with the gateways of other terminals, so modifying the second network segment can very conveniently select the range of the modified network segment.

Optionally, the method may further include:

modifying the first network segment to obtain a fourth network segment, sending the fourth network segment to an access point of the WLAN to judge whether the access point conflicts with other network segments, receiving a prompt whether the access point of the WLAN conflicts or not, if the prompt does not conflict, determining that the network segment of the WLAN is the fourth network segment, and if the prompt conflicts, re-modifying the first network segment and confirming the modified network segment until the modified network segment does not conflict with other network segments.

The access point of the WLAN may determine whether there is a conflict with other network segments, and the access point of the WLAN determines whether there is another terminal accessing the WLAN, if there is no other terminal accessing the WLAN, determines that there is no conflict, if there is another terminal accessing the WLAN, determines whether the other network segments of the other terminals are the same as the fourth network segment, if so, determines that there is a conflict, if not, determines that there is no conflict.

As shown in fig. 3, which is a schematic diagram of a WLAN, as shown in fig. 3, the UE accessing may include 3 UEs corresponding to three network segments, and if the UE1 modifies the network segments, it needs to determine whether to conflict with the network segments of the UE2 and the UE 3.

Optionally, a specific implementation method of the AP connected to the internet-enabled WLAN may include:

The technical scheme of the application combines the technical scheme of positioning and the technical scheme of scanning the AP list to simplify the AP access flow of the WLAN, and the WLAN is used in the technical scene such as home or office; for example, in a home, the AP is generally a fixed AP, and the name of the AP is also fixed, and at this time, the AP list may be displayed by noting the name of the AP or marking the identifier of the AP, or, in the office, the names of the APs are relatively fixed, for both scenarios, the AP that the user chooses to access is fixed, if the user cannot access his fixed AP, he will not choose to access the other AP, therefore, after the process determines that the AP is located at the home or office according to the coordinates, the process directly requests to access the AP corresponding to the location from the AP list, and the AP at the home or office must be accessed multiple times, the terminal is reserved with a password, so that the terminal can directly enter the corresponding AP without inputting the password, and since the AP is fixed and unique, it does not have to make multiple AP selections from the AP list. This reduces the input of the corresponding password.

The technical scheme of the application combines the technical scheme of positioning and the technical scheme of scanning the AP list to simplify the AP access flow of the WLAN, and the WLAN is used in the technical scene such as home or office; for example, in a home, an AP is generally a fixed AP, the name of the AP is also fixed, at this time, an AP list may note the name of the AP or mark the identifier of the AP for display, otherwise, in an office, the name of the AP is relatively fixed, for both of these two scenarios, the AP that the user selects to access is fixed, if the user cannot access the fixed AP, the user cannot select to access other APs, so the above-mentioned flow determines that the AP is located in the home or office according to coordinates, and directly requests to access the AP corresponding to the location, and for the AP in the home or office, the AP must be accessed multiple times, and a password is reserved for the terminal, so that the user does not need to input a password to directly enter the corresponding AP, and since the AP is fixed and unique, the access at these fixed locations is direct access, the corresponding AP can be directly selected according to the position without performing WLAN scanning once, so that the scanning process is simplified, and the WLAN can be quickly accessed.

Optionally, the method may further include:

if the current position is determined to be in the office according to the coordinates, determining whether the temperature detected by a temperature sensor of the electronic device exceeds a set threshold, if the temperature exceeds the set threshold, detecting the signal intensity of a preset angle, if the signal intensity is greater than the set threshold, determining that the second AP can be accessed to the network, extracting the name and the password of the second AP corresponding to the office, sending an access request to the second AP to realize access, and if the signal intensity is less than the set threshold, not accessing the second AP.

For the scene of an office, the position of the AP is relatively fixed, the AP is generally set in a desktop or a fixed position, and the situation is different from the technical scene of a home, for the user, the position of the AP is also relatively fixed, generally, the AP is set in a station position of the office, after the two relatively fixed positions are determined, a preset angle can be determined according to the strength of a historical access signal, and in the two relatively fixed positions, as long as it is determined whether the signal strength of the set angle is greater than a threshold value, it can be determined whether the second AP is started, so that whether the second AP is on the internet can be detected without starting WIFI scanning, the situation that the second AP is accessed and cannot be accessed is avoided, and the method does not need to perform WIFI scanning.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 provides an electronic device, which includes: an application processor 402 and a communication module 401, wherein the communication module 401 is connected to the application processor 402 by at least one circuit.

the application processor 402 is further configured to acquire a second network segment of the soft access point; and judging whether the first network segment is the same as the second network segment or not, if so, modifying the first network segment or the second network segment to ensure that the modified network segments are different.

Optionally, the application processor is specifically configured to, if the AP of the selected WLAN is not received, perform one scan to obtain an AP list, where the AP list includes: scanning the names and signal qualities of the plurality of APs; and acquiring the coordinate of the current position, determining whether the current position is at home or in an office according to the coordinate, if so, selecting a first AP corresponding to the current position from the AP list to send an access request to realize access, and if so, determining that the current position is in the office according to the coordinate, selecting a second AP corresponding to the office from the AP list to send the access request to realize access.

Optionally, the application processor is specifically configured to obtain a coordinate of the current location, determine whether the current location is at home or in an office according to the coordinate, if so, determine that the current location is at home according to the coordinate, extract a name and a password of a first AP corresponding to the home to send an access request to the first AP to implement access, and if so, extract a name and a password of a second AP corresponding to the office to send an access request to the second AP to implement access.

Optionally, the application processor is specifically configured to determine, according to the coordinate, that the current location is in an office, determine whether a temperature detected by a temperature sensor of the electronic device exceeds a set threshold, if so, detect a signal strength of a preset angle, and if the signal strength is greater than the set threshold, determine that the second AP can access the network, extract a name and a password of the second AP corresponding to the office, send an access request to the second AP to implement access, and if the signal strength is less than the set threshold, not access the second AP.
