The identifier of the wireless access point may be a name of the wireless access point, such as an SSID (Service Set Identifier) and/or a BSSID (Basic Service Set Identifier).

In some embodiments, when the user performs a first operation on a WLAN (Wireless Local Area Networks) option in the setting item of the terminal device or an icon of the wireless access point type application installed on the terminal device, the terminal device may Send a wireless access point connection request to the network device. The first operation may include any operation performed on the icon of the WLAN option or the wireless access point type application to trigger the terminal device to send the wireless access point connection request. For example, when the user clicks on the WLAN option or the icon of the wireless access point type application, the user can be considered to have performed the first operation. The wireless access point connection request may include an identifier of the at least one target wireless access point in the vicinity of the terminal device or location information of the terminal device.

As an example, when the user clicks the WLAN option in the setting item of the terminal device, the wireless access point type application installed on the terminal device can read the wireless access point list scanned by the terminal device to obtain the wireless access point list. An identifier of the at least one wireless access point, and the identifier is sent to the network device; the network device may query, according to the identifier, the wireless access point indicated by the identifier, as at least one target in the vicinity of the terminal device Wireless access point.

As another example, the preset reference area may be divided into multiple sub-areas, wherein each sub-area may include multiple wireless access points, and the network device may store information of the wireless access points in each sub-area. In some embodiments, the reference area may cover at least one administrative area or at least one country.

At least one user. For example, the reference user may be a user who has attempted to connect to at least one target wireless access point that has not been successfully connected within the last three months.

In some embodiments, the preset condition may be various conditions preset, and the specific content of the preset condition is not limited herein. As an example, the preset condition may include that there is at least one target wireless access point that is not successfully connected in the at least one target wireless access point, and there is no successfully connected target wireless in the at least one target wireless access point. The number of access points or target wireless access points that have been successfully connected is less than a preset threshold (eg, less than 2).

In some embodiments, the network device can determine whether the target wireless access point is a target wireless access point that has not been successfully connected or a target wireless access point that has been successfully connected.

As an example, the network device may determine whether the connection time in the information of the target wireless access point is empty; if the connection time is empty, the target wireless access point is a target wireless access point that has not been successfully connected; If the connection time is not empty, the target wireless access point is the target wireless access point that has been successfully connected.

As another example, when a terminal device installed with a wireless access point type application successfully connects to a wireless access point, the terminal device may generate a connection record including an identifier of the wireless access point and transmit it to the network device storage.

Step 204: Push the access information of the selected reference wireless access point to the terminal device.

In this embodiment, based on the reference wireless access point selected in step 203, the network device can push the access information of the selected reference wireless access point to the terminal device. The terminal device can attempt to connect to the nearby target wireless access point by using the access information of the selected reference wireless access point. The access information may be information used to access the wireless access point, such as a password, a verification code, and the like.

In some embodiments, the network device may prioritize access information for the selected referenced wireless access point and push the prioritized access information to the terminal device. The terminal device may sequentially use the access information to connect to the target wireless access point corresponding to the access information according to the order of priority from high to low. The target wireless access point corresponding to the access information may be a target wireless access point similar to the reference wireless access point to which the access information belongs. As an example, the network device may first comprehensively evaluate the connection success rate, signal strength, stability, network speed, and the like of the target wireless access point corresponding to the access information, thereby acquiring the target wireless connection corresponding to the access information. The comprehensive score of the entry point, usually, the higher the success rate of the connection of the wireless access point, the stronger the signal strength, the higher the stability, the faster the network speed, the higher the comprehensive score; then the score according to the score of the comprehensive score The access information corresponding to the target wireless access point is set to a priority.

Therefore, the access information of the wireless access point similar to the wireless access point in the vicinity of the user is pushed for the user, and the wireless access point of the wireless access point similar to the wireless access point in the vicinity of the user is connected to connect the wireless connection in the vicinity of the user. Incoming points help to increase the probability of a user successfully connecting to a wireless access point. Moreover, in some embodiments, obtaining a reference wireless access point by successfully or attempting to connect to a reference user's connection history of the current wireless access point helps to more accurately locate the appropriate reference wireless access point.

With further reference to FIG. 3, a flow 300 of yet another embodiment of a method for pushing access information is illustrated. The process 300 of the method for pushing access information includes the following steps:

Step 301: Acquire at least one target wireless access point in the vicinity of the terminal device in response to receiving the wireless access point connection request sent by the terminal device.

terminal device

Step 302: Acquire at least one reference wireless access point that the at least one reference user succeeds or attempts to connect in response to determining that the at least one target wireless access point satisfies a preset condition.

In this embodiment, based on the at least one target wireless access point acquired in step 201, the network device may determine whether the at least one target wireless access point satisfies a preset condition, and obtain at least one reference if the preset condition is met. At least one reference wireless access point that the user successfully or attempts to connect within a certain period of time (eg, the first three months). The preset condition may include that at least one target wireless access point that is not successfully connected exists in the at least one target wireless access point, and the target wireless access point that is successfully connected is not present in the at least one target wireless access point. The number of inbound or successfully connected target wireless access points is less than a preset threshold.

Step 303: Calculate the similarity between the identifier of the at least one target wireless access point that has not been successfully connected and the identifier of the at least one reference wireless access point.

In this embodiment, based on the at least one reference wireless access point acquired in step 302, the network device may calculate, by using multiple text similarity calculation methods, the identifier and at least one reference of the at least one wireless access point that has not been successfully connected.

The text similarity calculation method may include, but is not limited to, an Edit Distance algorithm, a cosine similarity algorithm, a Jaccard similarity algorithm, and the like. The edit distance, also known as the Levenshtein distance, is the minimum number of edit operations required between two strings, one from one to the other. Licensed editing operations include replacing one character with another, inserting one character, and deleting one character. In general, the smaller the edit distance, the greater the similarity between the two strings.

In some embodiments, for each of the at least one reference wireless access point, the network device may first calculate the identity of the reference wireless access point with at least one target wireless access that has not been successfully connected. The edit distance of the identifier of the point; and then based on the calculated edit distance, determine the similarity of the identifier of the reference wireless access point to the identity of the at least one target wireless access point that has not been successfully connected. As an example, the network device may sequentially calculate and obtain an edit distance of the identifier of the reference wireless access point and the identifier of each target wireless access point of the at least one target wireless access point that has not been successfully connected, thereby determining the Referencing the similarity between the identity of the wireless access point and the identity of each of the target wireless access points of the at least one target wireless access point that has not been successfully connected.

Step 304: Select one or more reference wireless access points from the at least one reference wireless access point based on the calculated similarity.

In this embodiment, based on the similarity calculated in step 303, the network device may select one or more reference wireless access points from the at least one reference wireless access point. Generally, the identifier of the target wireless access point that has not been successfully connected is similar to the identifier of the corresponding reference wireless access point, and the terminal device successfully connects to the unconnected terminal by using the access information of the reference wireless access point. The probability of a target wireless access point is greater. For example, the identification and password of the wireless access point set in multiple branches of the same store may be the same or similar, so when the user enters a branch, and the network device has not stored the access of the wireless access point set in the branch. In the information, the access information of the wireless access point set in the other branch can be obtained as the access information of the wireless access point of the branch by the method of the foregoing embodiment, and provided to the terminal device; for example, a store may The identifier of the wireless access point set in the store is modified to another similar identifier (such as changing the logo from "XXX Store 1" to "XXX Store 2"), but the original password is still used. For this type of situation, the network device passes The method of the above embodiment re-associates the original password with the modified identifier and provides it to the terminal device.

In some embodiments, the identification of each of the one or more reference wireless access points of the selected one of the selected reference wireless access points is associated with at least one of the at least one target wireless access point that has not been successfully connected. The similarity of the identifier is greater than the preset similarity threshold. In some embodiments, the network device may in turn wirelessly identify the identity of each of the at least one reference wireless access point with each of the at least one target wireless access point that has not been successfully connected. The similarity between the identifiers of the points is compared with a preset similarity threshold; and then the reference wireless access points whose similarities are greater than the preset similarity threshold are selected from the at least one reference wireless access point.

In some embodiments, the network device may first sort the at least one reference wireless access point in order of similarity size; and then select a predetermined number of reference wireless access points from the side with the similarity.

Step 305: Push the access information of the selected reference wireless access point to the terminal device.

In this embodiment, based on the reference wireless access point selected in step 304, the network device may push the access information of the selected reference wireless access point to the terminal device. The terminal device can attempt to connect to the nearby target wireless access point by using the access information of the selected reference wireless access point. The access information may be information used to access the wireless access point, such as a password, a verification code, and the like. In some embodiments, in step 305, the network device pushes the selected access information of the reference wireless access point and the identifier of the target wireless access point similar to the reference wireless access point to the terminal device, to The terminal device is caused to use the access information of the reference wireless access point to attempt to connect to the target wireless access point similar to the reference wireless access point.

In some embodiments, the above process 300 may further include the step 302': in response to determining that there is at least one target wireless access point successfully connected in the at least one target wireless access point, the at least one successfully connected target The access information of the wireless access point is pushed to the terminal device.

In this embodiment, based on the at least one target wireless access point acquired in step 301, the network device may determine whether at least one target wireless access point that has been successfully connected exists in the at least one target wireless access point; In the case of a successfully connected target wireless access point, push at least one access information of the successfully connected target wireless access point to the terminal device

In some embodiments, the network device may prioritize access information for the selected referenced wireless access point and push the prioritized access information to the terminal device. Generally, the access information of the target wireless access point that has been successfully connected has a higher priority than the access information of the reference wireless access point. Here, the network device may further comprehensively evaluate the information of the successfully connected target wireless access point, and set specific information on the access information of the at least one successfully connected target wireless access point according to the comprehensive score score. Priority.

In some embodiments, the step of pushing the access information of the reference wireless access point to the terminal device in step 305 and the access information of the target wireless access point to be successfully connected in step 302' are pushed to the terminal device. The steps can be performed simultaneously.

As can be seen from FIG. 3, the flow 300 of the method for pushing access information in this embodiment highlights the step of selecting a reference wireless access point as compared to the embodiment corresponding to FIG. Therefore, the solution described in this embodiment can select a reference wireless access point with a higher degree of similarity to the identifier of the wireless access point that has not been successfully connected, and utilizes the wireless access point that has not been successfully connected. The access information of the reference similar wireless access point with higher similarity attempts to connect to the wireless access point that has not been successfully connected, thereby further improving the probability that the terminal device successfully connects to the wireless access point.
