The implementation of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First embodiment

This embodiment provides a router control method. Referring to FIG. 1, the method includes:

S101. Access the wireless network provided by the router according to the access parameter of the router.

S102. Monitor an operating state of the wireless network.

S103. Control the restart of the router when detecting that a network abnormality occurs in the wireless network.

The router allocates the external network to multiple terminals in the LAN formed by the router. These terminals can access the public network through the LAN provided by the router, thereby realizing interaction with the public network. The router will include the SSID (Service Set Identifier) and PASSWORD (password) of the router. In general, the SSID of the router can be regarded as the name of the network provided by the router; The device can access the public network through SSID and PASSWORD. That is, the SSID and PASSWORD of the router are the access parameters of the router. It is worth noting that not every router will set PASSWORD. Some public routers usually do not have PASSWORD set. However, this does not affect the access of the network. That is, the access parameters of the router include at least the SSID. In some cases, Can include PASSWORD.

The router shares the network to other devices through the wireless network through its internal wireless chip; Within a certain range, other devices can access the Internet by accessing the network provided by the router's wireless chip through the access parameters of the router. As for the external network of the router, the access form is not limited, and may be accessed through a wired network or an access wireless network, and does not affect the router to share the external network with other devices in the LAN of the router. .

After the router is started, access the wireless network provided by the router through the access parameters of the router to monitor the running status of the wireless network; it should be noted that the wireless network provided by the access router needs to be within the wireless network coverage of the router; monitoring wireless The operation state of the network is usually a regular access to a server on the Internet, such as Google or Baidu. If the server responds, the network is normal and no operation is performed. If the access to the server fails, the network is abnormal.

After accessing the wireless network provided by the router according to the access parameter, under normal circumstances, communication with the public network can be performed; normal communication includes normal uplink and normal downlink; in actual communication, the uplink is based on The operation of the device on the user side determines that the downlink is determined by the operation of the device on the server side; the operation of the device on the user side mainly includes the operation of the router and the connection between the router and the LAN. Situation; the operation of the equipment on the network side may include the operation of the base station and the operation of the site server.

That is to say, after accessing the network according to the access parameters, the network anomaly may be caused by an uplink network failure and/or a downlink network failure. As long as the network is detected abnormally, the router is restarted. Optionally, the operation of restarting the router may include controlling the power of the router, that is, disconnecting the power of the router, and then turning on the power, so that the router can be restarted.

The network is abnormal, including the network connection is disconnected or the network connection is timed out. The disconnection of the network indicates that the network cannot be connected. It may be a problem on the router side or a problem on the server side. If the network connection times out, it means that there is no default waiting time in the program. Get the response of the server, the possible reasons are network congestion; the network is unstable; the system available resources are too low; the device connection is unstable; the system is busy when the network is registered, unable to respond; the network is too slow; infected with malware, computer virus, computer Trojans, etc.

During the working process of the router, the network may be abnormal due to various reasons such as crashes, abnormal programs, memory exhaustion, etc. When there is a problem with the router, the restart can often solve most problems, including the wireless chip failure in the router. Software failure, system crash, etc.; if there is a failure in the downlink, such as a failure of the site server, or a failure of the base station, that is, the network abnormality is not caused by the router itself. Obviously, restarting the router cannot solve the problem. Then, when it is detected that the network is abnormal in the wireless network, it is judged whether the time interval from the last restart is less than the pre- If the time is less than the preset time, it will not be restarted to prevent the router from restarting under abnormal conditions. The user cannot configure and locate the router. Of course, if it is not less than the preset time, the router is restarted normally.

In addition, the access parameters of the router are not static; after the router access parameter changes, the access parameters of the router used to monitor the running status of the wireless network should also change with the change. Therefore, in this embodiment, The router control method further includes: obtaining an access parameter of the router according to a preset rule. The preset rules may be multiple. The first one may include the access parameters of the router that are periodically and periodically acquired. The second one may include obtaining the changed access of the router when the access parameters of the router change. The third parameter may be a combination of the foregoing two solutions, that is, in addition to periodically acquiring the access parameters of the router, the changed access parameters may be acquired in time when the access parameters of the router are changed. Timely update the access parameters of the router used to monitor the running status of the wireless network, avoiding network anomalies caused by inconsistent access parameters of the router and monitoring the operating status of the wireless network, thereby causing no The necessary restart.

This embodiment provides a router control method, which accesses a wireless network provided by a router according to an access parameter of a router, monitors an operating state of the wireless network, and controls a router to restart when a network abnormality occurs in the wireless network, so that the network can be Restart the router directly when abnormal, without manual operation by the user, and have a good user experience.

Second embodiment

This embodiment provides a router control apparatus. Referring to FIG. 2, the method includes:

These terminals can access the public network through the LAN provided by the router, thereby realizing interaction with the public network. When the router is configured, its access parameters include at least the SSID, and in some cases, PASSWORD.

The router shares the network to other devices through the wireless network through its internal wireless chip; within a certain range, other devices can access the Internet by accessing the network provided by the router's wireless chip through the access parameters of the router. As for the external network of the router, the access form is not limited, Therefore, it is connected through a wired network, or it can be an access wireless network, and does not affect the router to share the external network to other devices in the router's local area network.

After the router is started, the network monitoring module 201 accesses the wireless network provided by the router through the access parameter of the router to monitor the running status of the wireless network; the method of monitoring the running state of the wireless network is usually to periodically access a server on the Internet, such as Google or Baidu or any other server that can be accessed under normal circumstances. If the server responds, the network is normal and no operation is performed. If the access to the server fails, the network is abnormal.

That is to say, after the network monitoring module 201 accesses the network according to the access parameters, the network abnormality may be caused by an uplink network failure and/or a downlink network failure. The power control module 202 controls the router to restart whenever a network anomaly is detected. Optionally, the restart operation of the router may include controlling the power of the router, that is, disconnecting the power of the router, and then turning on the power, so that the router can be restarted.

During the working process of the router, the network may be abnormal due to various reasons such as crashes, abnormal programs, memory exhaustion, etc. When there is a problem with the router, the restart can often solve most problems, including the wireless chip in the router. Faults, software failures, system crashes, etc.; if there is a failure on the downlink, such as a failure of the site server, or a failure of the base station, that is, the network exception is not caused by the router itself. Obviously, restarting the router cannot solve the problem. Then, when the network abnormality occurs in the wireless network, it is judged whether the time interval from the last restart is less than the preset time. If it is less than the preset time, it will not be restarted to prevent the router from restarting under abnormal conditions. The user cannot configure and locate the router. Of course, if it is not less than the preset time, the router is restarted normally.

In addition, the access parameters of the router are not static; after the access parameters of the router are changed, the access parameters of the router used to monitor the running state of the wireless network should also change according to the change. Therefore, this embodiment The router control device further includes a parameter synchronization module 203 configured to synchronize the access parameters of the router to the network monitoring module 201 according to a preset rule. The preset rules may be multiple. The first one may include the access parameters of the router that are periodically and periodically acquired. The second one may include obtaining the changed access of the router when the access parameters of the router change. The third parameter may be a combination of the foregoing two solutions, that is, in addition to periodically acquiring the access parameters of the router, the changed access parameters may be acquired in time when the access parameters of the router are changed. Timely update the access parameters used to monitor the running status of the wireless network, avoiding network anomalies caused by inconsistent access parameters of the router and monitoring the operating status of the wireless network, thereby causing unnecessary Restart. Synchronization of router access parameters In addition to setting the parameter synchronization module 203 on the router control device, the parameter synchronization module 203 can also be set on the router, and the parameter synchronization module 203 on the router sends the access parameters of the router to the router in real time. The parameter synchronization module 203 on the device further enables the parameter synchronization module 203 on the router control device to synchronize the access parameters of the router to the network monitoring module 201 in real time; the access parameters of the router are sent from the router to the router control device, and the UART can be passed through the UART.
