Description
[ technical field ] A method for producing a semiconductor device
The present invention relates to a method for controlling network connection of a communication device, and more particularly, to a method for controlling network connection between a communication device and a peripheral device, a communication device, and an electronic terminal.
[ background of the invention ]
In the prior art, a mobile phone has a wireless communication module that can connect to various Access Points (APs), the APs can broadcast their Service Set Identifiers (SSIDs), the mobile phone receives the SSIDs broadcast by the APs and adds the SSIDs to an Access Point list, and a user can select one SSID from the Access Point list and input a secret key to connect to the selected AP. The handset configures connection priorities for a plurality of access points to which it can connect (or has connected) with a predetermined rule, such as communication signal strength, and the handset automatically establishes a connection with the access point with the highest connection priority.
The imaging device is used as a peripheral device, and a wireless communication module can be arranged in the imaging device and can be connected to a router or other access points. The communication device such as a mobile phone can be directly connected with the soft AP of the imaging device to establish mutual communication or establish communication with the imaging device through the router, and a user controls the imaging device to execute imaging tasks such as printing and the like through an application program installed on the mobile phone.
As shown in fig. 1, the cell phone S1 may connect the access point a and the access point B, the imaging device P1 may connect the access point B, and the cell phone S1 may also connect the soft AP (i.e., the access point C) of the imaging device P1. Assume that access point a has the highest connection priority, followed by access point B, and then access point C, and thus the handset will automatically connect to access point a. Therefore, if the user searches for an imaging device by using an application program for controlling the imaging device in the mobile phone and selects the imaging device P1 from the imaging device list to establish a connection between the mobile phone and the access point B or the access point C, the mobile phone may automatically return to the access point a having the highest access priority, and the mobile phone S1 and the imaging device P1 that the user desires to use cannot establish communication via the same network. In order to use the imaging apparatus P1, the user needs to manually quit the application program controlling the imaging apparatus and search the network setting interface of the cell phone S1 to set the access point connected to the cell phone S1 to be the same as the access point associated with the imaging apparatus P1, for example, the access point a is ignored or the access point a is disconnected in the network setting of the cell phone S1, so that the cell phone S1 can automatically establish a network connection with the access point B with a lower connection priority to enable the cell phone S1 to establish communication with the imaging apparatus P1 through the access point B, which is very cumbersome in operation.

[ detailed description ] embodiments
For better understanding of the technical solutions of the present invention, the following detailed descriptions of the embodiments of the present invention are provided with reference to the accompanying drawings.
It should be understood that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Example one
An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for controlling network connection of a communication device, where the method includes:
receiving a network connection request desiring to establish communication with a target peripheral device;
establishing a connection with an access point associated with a target peripheral device and establishing communication with the target peripheral device through the access point associated with the target peripheral device;
wherein, before establishing a connection with an access point associated with a target peripheral device, the control method further comprises:
if the access point currently connected with the communication device is different from the access point associated with the target peripheral device, the access point currently connected with the communication device needs to be switched to the access point associated with the target peripheral device, and in the switching process, the network connection priority of the access point associated with the target peripheral device is set to be the highest.
The network connection priority of the communication device indicates the priority order of the communication device establishing connection with the external network according to a network configuration file, the network configuration file comprises information of each access point which can be connected by the communication device, and the information comprises a network name and a connection priority.
The specific operation flow of the control method of the present embodiment is shown in fig. 2, and includes:
Step 202 may further include a process of attempting to connect, specifically, during the handover process, the communication device first attempts to connect to the access point associated with the target peripheral device, and if the connection is unsuccessful, the access point associated with the target peripheral device is set to be the highest in the network connection priority of the communication device; if the attempted connection is successful, the communication device establishes communication with the target peripheral device. Here, the connection attempt may be that the communication device first attempts to connect to the access point associated with the target peripheral device, and then detects whether the access point associated with the target peripheral device is still connected after a predetermined time, and if there is no connection, it indicates that the connection attempt is unsuccessful.
To explain step 202 in further detail, another specific operation flow of the control method of the present embodiment is shown in fig. 3, and includes:
Wherein the steps 2021-2025 are detailed operation flows of the step 202.
The communication device in this embodiment may be a mobile phone, a computer, a notebook computer, a PAD (PAD), a digital camera, or the like. The peripheral devices may be imaging devices, home appliances, digital media devices, and the like.
In the following, a communication device is exemplified as a mobile phone, and a peripheral device is exemplified as a printer. An Application program (APP for short) for controlling a printer can be installed in the mobile phone, a list of printers searched by the mobile phone through a network can be displayed in the APP for controlling the printer, a user selects one printer according to the list, the mobile phone receives a network connection request for establishing communication with the selected printer, the mobile phone establishes connection with an access point associated with the selected printer through a wireless communication module, and establishes communication with the selected printer to execute operations such as a printing function. A network profile is stored in the mobile phone, where the network profile includes information of each Access point to which the mobile phone has connected, the information includes a network name (e.g., SSID)) of the Access point, a secret key, a mac (media Access control) address, a connection priority, and the like, and the information stored in the network profile is shown in table 1.
| Network name | Secret key | MAC address | Connection priority |
| A | XXX | XXXX | 1 |
| B | XXX | XXXX | 2 |
| C | XXX | XXXX | 3 |
TABLE 1
The access points with the highest connection priority are automatically accessed by the mobile phone, and when the access point with the highest connection priority is closed or cannot receive the broadcast signal of the access point with the highest connection priority, the mobile phone is automatically connected with the access point with the next connection priority according to the network configuration file. For example, when the access point a with the highest connection priority (indicated by the numeral 1) is far away and the mobile phone cannot establish a connection with the access point a, the mobile phone automatically connects to the access point B with the next adjacent connection priority.
Thus, setting the network connection priority of the access point associated with the target peripheral device to be highest at the communication device may be accomplished by modifying the connection priority of the access point associated with the target peripheral device in the network profile to be highest. Specifically, when the mobile phone connects to the selected printer-associated access point, the APP controlling the printer in the mobile phone modifies the connection priority of the selected printer-associated access point in the network configuration file stored in the mobile phone to be the highest (for example, the modified connection priority is 1), so that the mobile phone automatically connects to the selected printer-associated access point to establish communication between the mobile phone and the selected printer in the same network. The access point with which the selected printer is associated here may be the selected printer as the access point to which the station is connected or may be the softap of the selected printer itself.
By the control method provided by the embodiment, when the communication device is switched to the access point associated with the target peripheral device, the network connection priority of the access point associated with the target peripheral device is set to be highest, so that the problem that the mobile phone cannot be switched to the access point associated with the imaging device in the background technology can be solved, the mobile phone is automatically in the same wireless network with the imaging device expected to be used by a user, the user can use the imaging device through the mobile phone conveniently, and the control method is very convenient for the user lacking network knowledge.
Example two
In this embodiment, on the basis of the first embodiment, the setting, in the control method provided in this embodiment, the network connection priority of the access point associated with the target peripheral device to be the highest in the communication device further includes: deleting the information of the access point associated with the target peripheral device in the network configuration file of the communication device, and reestablishing the information of the access point associated with the target peripheral device in the network configuration file.
If a new access point D exists in the prior art, and the user selects the SSID of the access point D in the mobile phone and inputs the password to establish the connection between the mobile phone and the new access point D, the operating system of the mobile phone stores the information of the access point D that has newly established the connection in the network configuration file, and sets the connection priority of the access point D to be the highest. The specific scheme of this embodiment may be that when the mobile phone is switched to connect the access point associated with the selected printer, the APP controlling the printer deletes the information of the access point associated with the selected printer from the network configuration file of the mobile phone, and then the APP stores the information of the access point associated with the selected printer in the network configuration file of the mobile phone again, and the operating system of the mobile phone automatically sets the connection priority of the access point associated with the selected printer stored again to be the highest.
Therefore, by the control method of the present embodiment, deleting the information of the access point associated with the target peripheral device in the network profile of the communication apparatus and storing the information of the access point associated with the target peripheral device in the network location file again corresponds to simulating the access point associated with the target peripheral device as an access point that has newly established a connection with the communication apparatus (i.e., an access point that has newly established a connection at the latest time), and the communication apparatus automatically gives priority to maintaining or continuing the connection with the access point that has newly established a connection with the communication apparatus. Therefore, the control method of the embodiment can enable the communication device to establish connection with the access point associated with the target peripheral device, enable the communication device and the target peripheral device to establish communication in the same expected network, and facilitate the user to use the target peripheral device through the communication device.
In addition, in the control method provided in the present embodiment, the setting of the network connection priority of the communication device to be highest by the access point associated with the target peripheral device may include at least one of the following manners: modifying the connection priority of the access point associated with the target peripheral device in the network configuration file of the communication device to be highest; deleting the information of the access point associated with the target peripheral device in the network configuration file of the communication device, and reestablishing the information of the access point associated with the target peripheral device in the network configuration file.
Specifically, in order to improve the success rate of establishing connection between the communication device and the access point associated with the peripheral device, in the control method of the present embodiment, setting the network connection priority of the access point associated with the target peripheral device to be highest in the communication device may be performed in the following order: firstly, the connection priority of the access point associated with the target peripheral device in the network configuration file of the communication device is modified to be the highest, if the situation that the access point associated with the target peripheral device cannot be modified or is unsuccessfully connected occurs, the information of the access point associated with the target peripheral device in the network configuration file of the communication device is deleted, and the information of the access point associated with the target peripheral device is established in the network configuration file again.
To further explain the control method provided by this embodiment, a specific flow of the control method of this embodiment is shown in fig. 4, the same steps as those in fig. 3 are not repeated, the embodiment only explains different steps, and the specific flow of the control method of this embodiment includes:
By the control method provided by the embodiment, the access point associated with the target peripheral device in different modes can be set to be the highest in the network connection priority of the communication device, so that the communication device and the target peripheral device are in the same network to establish communication.
EXAMPLE III
On the basis of the first embodiment, the control method provided by this embodiment further includes:
if the switching failure occurs in the access point associated with the target peripheral device, displaying an interface comprising a setting key, so that a user can enter the setting interface of the network connection of the communication device through the setting key, and the user can conveniently and manually set the network connection of the communication device so as to establish the connection between the communication device and the access point associated with the target peripheral device.
Different from the prior art that a user needs to search for a setting interface for entering the network connection of the mobile phone in the mobile phone after quitting the APP for controlling the printer, the control method provided by this embodiment causes the APP to display the interface including the setting key after the access point connection between the mobile phone and the imaging device fails, and prompts the user to set the guiding step of the network connection of the mobile phone on the interface including the setting key, and the user clicks the setting key to directly enter the setting interface of the network connection of the mobile phone from the APP, and sets the network connection of the mobile phone according to the guiding step (for example, "ignore this network" setting is performed on the access point associated with the target peripheral device, and reselects the access point associated with the target peripheral device to establish connection) so as to establish connection between the mobile phone and the access point associated with the target peripheral device.
In order to further describe the control method of the present embodiment, a specific operation flow of the control method of the present embodiment is shown in fig. 5, and the same points as those of the above embodiment are not repeated, including:
step 301 is added after step 20253 to determine whether the establishment of the connection is successful when the communication device establishes a connection with the access point associated with the target peripheral device; when switching from the currently connected access point to the access point associated with the connection target peripheral device, judging whether the switching connection is successful; if the judgment result is no, entering 302; if the judgment result is yes, the step 204 is entered; step 301 may also be determining whether information about access points associated with the target peripheral device in the network profile may be deleted; if the deletion cannot be performed, go to step 302; if the information of the access point associated with the target peripheral device can be deleted and stored again in the network configuration file, whether the connection can be established successfully is judged;
Before step 301, the control method of this embodiment may specifically be that the APP controlling the printer in the mobile phone achieves the purpose of setting the network connection priority of the access point associated with the target imaging device to be the highest in the mobile phone in multiple ways, and when it is determined in step 301 that the APP cannot establish connection between the mobile phone and the access point associated with the target imaging device, step 302 is performed again, the APP displays an interface including a setting key, and the user directly enters the network setting interface of the mobile phone through the setting key on the interface, without the user exiting the APP controlling the printer and then entering other application programs to set the network connection of the mobile phone, which is very convenient for the user to use the target imaging device through the mobile phone.
In addition, the specific operation flow of the control method of the present embodiment may also be that when the determination result of step 20252 is no, the process directly proceeds to steps 302 and 303, and steps 20253 and 301 are omitted. Further, the specific operation flow of the control method of the present embodiment may also directly omit steps 20251 and 20252, and directly enter step 20253 when the determination result of step 2024 is no.
By the control method of the embodiment, the access point associated with the target peripheral device can be set to be the highest in the network connection priority of the communication device in different modes, and the user operation is reduced, so that the communication device and the target peripheral device are in the same network, and the user can use the target peripheral device through the communication device conveniently.
