Description

Method for pushing information and mobile terminal

The present invention relates to the field of mobile communications, and in particular, to a method for pushing information and a mobile terminal.

Background technique

Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) is a system that uses Radio Frequency (RF) technology for data transmission. WLAN can be used to make up for the shortage of wired LAN to achieve network extension. The WLAN uses a simple access architecture to allow users to implement a network with no network and no distance restrictions. WLAN uses industrial, scientific, and medical applications (Industrial Scientific Medic, ISM for short) radio broadcast band communication. The WLAN 802.11a standard uses the 5 GHz band and supports a maximum speed of 54 Mbps, while the 802.11b and 802.1 lg standards use the 2.4 GHz band to support speeds of up to 11 Mbps and 54 Mbps, respectively. Currently, the protocol standards included in the WLAN are: IEEE802.11b protocol, IEEE802.11a protocol, IEEE802.11g protocol, IEEE802.11E protocol, IEEE802.11i protocol, and Wireless Application Protocol (WLAN).

When the WLAN function of the terminal is turned on, the hotspot scan is automatically performed to find the network that can be accessed. The user can set the access mode to automatic access, so that when there is access to the WLAN network around, the network service can be accessed automatically by connecting to the server.
