According to the technical scheme, when the terminal equipment performs network connection operation or channel switching connection operation and the current terminal equipment is connected with at least one wireless sound through the initial connection channel, when the fact that the target channel used for networking of the terminal equipment is inconsistent with the initial connection channel is determined, the initial connection channel can be automatically enabled to perform channel following processing, the terminal equipment is enabled to be connected with the at least one wireless sound through the target channel, reconnection is performed after the wireless sound is disconnected with the terminal equipment in the prior art, the phenomenon that the audio played by the wireless sound is blocked is avoided, the fact that the target channel used for networking of the terminal equipment is consistent with the channel connected with the at least one wireless sound by the terminal equipment is guaranteed, the problem that wireless wifi throughput is reduced is avoided, the situation that the played audio is blocked is avoided, and user experience is improved.

For a more detailed description of the present solution, an exemplary manner will be described below in connection with fig. 6, with the understanding that, although the steps in the flowchart of fig. 6 are shown in sequence as indicated by the arrows, these steps are not necessarily performed in sequence as indicated by the arrows. The steps are not strictly limited to the order of execution unless explicitly recited herein, and the steps may be executed in other orders. Moreover, at least some of the steps in fig. 6 may include multiple sub-steps or stages that are not necessarily performed at the same time, but may be performed at different times, nor do the order in which the sub-steps or stages are performed necessarily performed in sequence, but may be performed alternately or alternately with at least a portion of the sub-steps or stages of other steps or other steps. The channel following method provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented.

Fig. 6 is a flow chart of a channel following method according to an embodiment of the disclosure. As shown in fig. 6, the channel following method specifically includes the following steps:

s61, responding to a target connection request of network connection for the terminal equipment, acquiring a target channel used for the network connection by the terminal equipment, and executing target operation corresponding to the target connection request according to the target channel.

Wherein the target connection request includes a network connection request and a channel switching connection request, and the target operation includes a network connection operation and a channel switching connection operation.

The above network connection request refers to that when the current terminal device is not connected to the router, i.e. does not perform network connection, the terminal device receives and responds to the network connection request to connect to the router, so as to enable the terminal device to perform networking, and the network connection request may be sent by a user, but is not limited thereto. The above-mentioned channel switching connection request means that the terminal device has been networked for the present time, but at this time, the channel of the terminal device connection network is changed, and thus it is necessary to switch the channel to perform network connection of the terminal device, but it is not limited thereto.

The target channel refers to a channel that is used by the current terminal device to connect with the router.

Specifically, the controller of the terminal device responds to a target connection request, such as a network connection request, or a channel switching connection request, for network connection of the terminal device, acquires a target channel used by the terminal device for network connection, and executes a target operation corresponding to the target connection request according to the target channel.

Optionally, based on the above embodiments, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 7, a hardware module 701 can be set inside a terminal device as a base station, so as to implement network connection between the terminal device and a router, and serve as a base station soft AP, to provide a hotspot function for a wireless stereo, so that the wireless stereo is connected with the terminal device, such as a smart tv, through a network channel, by which the number of hardware modules can be reduced, and the cost can be reduced.

Optionally, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, because a hardware module is built in the current terminal device as a base station and a soft AP, time slicing is required to be performed on the hardware module, so that when the target connection request is a network connection request, and the terminal device plays audio through wireless audio, the wireless audio cannot be blocked, and based on this, an implementation manner of acquiring a target channel used by the terminal device for network connection may be as follows:

and A1, scanning a plurality of network connection channels included in a network where the terminal equipment is located within a first preset duration.

The first preset duration refers to a time parameter set for scanning a plurality of channels existing in a local area network where the current terminal device is located, and the specific value of the first preset duration is not particularly limited, and can be set by a person skilled in the art according to actual situations.

And step A2, when the first preset duration is over and the target channel is not determined in the plurality of network connection channels, sending audio data corresponding to the audio to the wireless sound through the initial connection channel in the second preset duration so as to enable the wireless sound to play the audio.

The second preset duration is a time parameter set by the terminal equipment for sending audio data corresponding to the audio to the wireless sound equipment, so that the wireless sound equipment can continue playing the audio according to the received audio data, and the situation of blocking is avoided. The specific value of the second preset duration is not specifically limited in this disclosure, and may be set by those skilled in the art according to actual situations.

And step A3, when the second preset time period is over, returning to execute the scanning of a plurality of network connection channels included in the network where the terminal equipment is located in the first preset time period until a target channel is determined in the plurality of network connection channels.
