Technical Field

The present application relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a router configuration method, a terminal, and a router.

Background

The wireless router may convert the broadband network signal into a wireless signal to provide wireless coverage. Terminals (such as mobile phones, tablet computers, notebook computers and the like) in the wireless coverage range of the wireless router can be connected to the wireless router to realize wireless internet access. The application of the wireless router is popular, and many family users or company users use the wireless router to provide wireless internet access services for their members.

For a new router or a router after factory reset is resumed, configuration such as a network access mode (e.g., dial-up network access), a wireless network name (e.g., Wi-Fi name), a wireless network password (e.g., Wi-Fi password), and the like needs to be performed first. For example, the router is configured after the browser accesses http://192.168.1.1/, the user name (e.g. admin) and the initial password are input, and login is successful. The configuration mode is relatively complicated in operation and high in professional performance, and can be configured by professional personnel or non-professional personnel who need to carefully read the specification. Without a professional, or instruction, it is difficult for a typical user to efficiently configure a router.

The pressure sensor 180A can be of a wide variety, such as a resistive pressure sensor, an inductive pressure sensor, a capacitive pressure sensor, and the like. The capacitive pressure sensor may be a sensor comprising at least two parallel plates having an electrically conductive material. When a force acts on the pressure sensor 180A, the capacitance between the electrodes changes. The electronics determine the strength of the pressure from the change in capacitance. When a touch operation is applied to the display screen 194, the electronic device detects the intensity of the touch operation according to the pressure sensor 180A. The electronic device may also calculate the position of the touch from the detection signal of the pressure sensor 180A. In some embodiments, the touch operations that are applied to the same touch position but different touch operation intensities may correspond to different operation instructions. For example: and when the touch operation with the touch operation intensity smaller than the first pressure threshold value acts on the short message application icon, executing an instruction for viewing the short message. And when the touch operation with the touch operation intensity larger than or equal to the first pressure threshold value acts on the short message application icon, executing an instruction of newly building the short message.

The gyro sensor 180B may be used to determine the motion pose of the electronic device. In some embodiments, the angular velocity of the electronic device about three axes (i.e., x, y, and z axes) may be determined by the gyroscope sensor 180B. The gyro sensor 180B may be used for photographing anti-shake.

Router 200 may include a processor 210, a memory 220, wireless communication circuitry 230, an antenna 232, and a network port 240.

It is to be understood that the illustrated structure of the embodiment of the present application does not constitute a specific limitation to the router 200. In other embodiments of the present application, router 200 may include more or fewer components than shown, or combine certain components, or split certain components, or a different arrangement of components. The illustrated components may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of software and hardware.

The memory 220 is used to store instructions and data. Processor 210 may call instructions or data stored by memory 220. The memory 220 and the processor 210 may be referred to above in the description of the terminal 100.

The network port 240 may include a wired network interface that may be configured to couple to a network of the internet through a wired network such as a broadband network and may provide access to the internet for a plurality of terminals (e.g., terminal 100).

The network port 240 may include a mobile communication module that may be configured to connect to a core network through a wireless communication technology. The wireless communication technology may include GSM, GPRS, CDMA, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, LTE, fifth generation ((5th generation, 5G), New Radio (NR).

Wireless communications circuitry 230 may be configured to communicate via a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) standard, such as a Wi-Fi network. The wireless communication circuit 230 may be one or more devices that integrate at least one communication processing module. The wireless communication circuit 230 may receive electromagnetic waves via the antenna 232, frequency modulate and filter the electromagnetic wave signal, and transmit the processed signal to the processor 210. The wireless communication module may also receive signals to be transmitted from the processor 210, frequency modulate and amplify the signals, and convert the signals to electromagnetic waves via the antenna 232 for radiation.

The methods in the following embodiments may be implemented in an electronic device having the above hardware structure.

The embodiment of the present application provides a router configuration method, and an execution main body of the router configuration method may be a terminal 100. As shown in fig. 4, the method includes the following steps.

And step 400, connecting the terminal with the router.

The terminal connection router may refer to a wireless network provided by the terminal access router. Specifically, the router is started, and the router transmits a wireless signal to provide wireless coverage. When a terminal with a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) function is in a wireless coverage area of a router, the terminal may search for a wireless signal transmitted by the router. After searching for the wireless signal, the terminal may connect the wireless signal actively or based on a user operation, thereby connecting the router.

It is easy to understand that whether the router is connected to the network cable or the internet (internet), the router can transmit signals to form a wireless network as long as the switch of the router is turned on. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the wireless network provided by the router refers to a wireless network formed by the router transmitting a signal after being turned on, and does not require the router to access the internet or access an upstream network device or an upstream network interface.

Step 402, determining whether the router is a new router, if so, executing step 406, and if not, executing step 404. Wherein, the router which is not the new router is the old router.

After the terminal is connected to the router, it may be determined whether the router is a new router at step 402. The new router is not configured after leaving the factory, and may also be the router after restoring the old router to the factory setting. The new router is configured without leaving the factory, and the wireless network provided by the new router cannot access the internet. Accordingly, a router configured after shipment may be referred to as an old router. The old router is a router which is configured after leaving the factory, wherein if the configuration meets the external network access requirement of the place where the old router is located, the router has the capacity of accessing the external network of the place.

In this embodiment of the present application, post-factory configuration may also be referred to as user configuration, specifically, information that a user or a consumer configures a router to use the router.

The terminal can respond to the operation instruction of the user and display a router management login page. In some embodiments, the terminal responds to the operation instruction of the user, starts the router management application and displays the router management login page. The router management application may be an application integrated in the terminal operating system, or may be an application downloadable from an application platform and freely installable or uninstallable by a user.

The administrative login page may be as shown in fig. 5, including an administrator username entry box, password entry box, login button, etc. The user may enter an administrator username and password and click a login button. In one example, the administrator username can be a username set forth in a router nameplate or usage specification, such as "admin". The password can be an initial password or a user-defined password. In one example, the administrator username can also be a user-defined cloud account that conforms to the rules agreed upon by the router vendor. Taking hua as a router as an example, the administrator user name may be a user-defined hua as a cloud account, such as a mobile phone number. Correspondingly, the password is a password corresponding to the cloud account.

The router management application and the router have a agreed interface between them, which may be an application layer interface. Through the interface, the terminal and the router can carry out information interaction. Such as transmitting a page access request, first configuration wizard page data, configuration management page data, etc.

When the input administrator user name and the password are correct and the login button is clicked, the terminal can display a first configuration guide page of the router or a configuration management page of the router. When the router is a new router, the terminal displays a first configuration guide page; when the router is an old router, the terminal displays a configuration management page. Next, the two cases will be specifically described.

In some embodiments, when the input administrator user name and password are both correct and the login button is clicked, the terminal may send a page access request to the router in response to the operation of clicking the login button. And if the router is a new router, the router responds to the page access request and sends the first-time configuration guide page data to the terminal so as to enable the terminal to display the first-time configuration guide page. If the router is an old router, the router transmits display configuration management page data to the terminal in response to the page access request.

In some embodiments, when the terminal is connected to the router, if the router is a new router, the terminal is actively sent the first configuration guide page data. And if the router is the old router, actively sending configuration management page data to the terminal. After the terminal acquires the first configuration guide page data or the configuration management page data, the terminal can respond to the operation of clicking a login button and can display the first configuration guide page or the configuration management page.

Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal may determine whether the router is a new router or an existing router by using whether the first configuration wizard page data or the configuration management page data is received from the router. If the terminal receives the first configuration guide page data from the router, the router is a new router; if the terminal receives the configuration management page data from the router, the router is the old router.

In some embodiments, the new router has an initial label in the initial wireless network name, which may be, for example, the last 2 digits of the initial network name. When the router is configured after leaving the factory, the initial label is deleted. The terminal (or a router management application installed on the terminal) can determine whether the router is a new router by identifying whether the router currently connected to the terminal has an initial label in the wireless network name.

Step 404, obtaining backup data of the router.

When the determination result of step 402 indicates that the router to which the terminal is connected is not a new router, i.e., is an old router, the terminal may perform step 404.

Specifically, the terminal may send a backup data request to the router. The router sends the router's backup data to the terminal in response to the request.

In some embodiments, the operation of retrieving backup data is an operation directed to a configuration management page. The configuration management page may be as shown in fig. 6, which includes a backup data request button that the user may click to trigger the terminal to send a backup data request to the router.

In some embodiments, the terminal may automatically send a backup data request to the router. The router transmits the backup data to the terminal in response to the backup data request.

When the configuration management page is specifically a page of the router management application, after receiving the backup data of the router, the terminal may store the backup data in a storage path related to the router management application.

The backup data comprises the site characteristic information of the router and the factory configuration information of the router. Here, the location characteristic information in the embodiments of the present application is also referred to as characteristic information. The location characteristic information is information for identifying a location where the router is located. The post-factory configuration information, which may also be referred to as user configuration information or configuration information, refers to post-factory configuration information generated by a router that has undergone post-factory configuration, that is, an old router, according to its own configuration state or configuration data. Specifically, the post-shipment configuration information is a general name of a network access mode of a router configured by a user, a wireless network name, a wireless network password, and the like. The factory configuration information may include at least one of an internet access method, a wireless network name, a wireless network password, and the like, and may also include other information configured by the user, such as a network disconnection time, a restart time, and the like.

In some embodiments, the backup data further includes identification information of the backup data to identify the backup data. The identification information of the backup data may be the S/N of the router that generated the backup data. If the terminal has the backup data locally, in step 404, it may be determined whether the locally stored backup data has the backup data that is the same as the identification information of the backup data currently acquired by the terminal. If so, the locally stored backup data which is the same as the identification information of the currently acquired backup data can be deleted, and the currently acquired backup data can be saved. And if not, saving the currently acquired backup data.

Step 406, determine whether the terminal has backup data locally, if yes, go to step 408, and if no, go to step 416.

When the determination result of step 402 indicates that the router to which the terminal is connected is a new router, the terminal may perform step 406.

The backup data can be referred to the above description and will not be described herein.

It is easy to understand that the backup data locally stored by the terminal may be backup data acquired by the terminal from a router other than the currently connected router, or may be backup data acquired from a cloud server.

Step 408, obtaining router location feature information; step 410 is then performed.

Specifically, the terminal may send a location characteristic information request to the router in response to the operation of acquiring the location characteristic information. The router transmits location characteristic information of the router to the terminal in response to the request. The location characteristic information may specifically refer to the following description, and will not be described herein again.

In some embodiments, the operation of obtaining locale feature information is an operation directed to a first configuration wizard page. The first configuration wizard page may be as shown in fig. 8, which includes a locale characteristic information request button that the user may click on to trigger the terminal to send a locale characteristic information request to the router.

In some embodiments, the terminal may actively send a venue characteristic information request to the router to request venue characteristic information in step 408.

And step 410, matching backup data according to the site feature information.

In some embodiments, when the site characteristic information is BSSIDs of a plurality of surrounding routers, matching may be performed according to a first BSSID of the plurality of surrounding routers. If the backup data is matched and only one backup data is matched, step 412 is executed to send the matched backup data or post-factory configuration information to the router. If two or more backup data are matched, matching may be performed based on the second BSSID, … …, until only one backup data is matched, and then step 412 is performed.

In some embodiments, when the venue characteristic information includes a plurality of priority venue characteristic information, the matching may be performed first according to the first priority venue characteristic information. If the backup data is matched and only one backup data is matched, step 412 is executed to send the matched backup data or post-factory configuration information to the router. If two or more backup data are matched, matching can be performed according to the second priority location characteristic information, … …, until only one backup data is matched, and then step 412 is performed.

In some embodiments, when the backup data is matched through step 410, in step 412, the terminal may send the backup data to the router, so that the router completes its configuration according to the post-factory configuration information in the backup data.

In some embodiments, when the backup data is matched through step 410, in step 412, the post-factory configuration information in the backup data may be sent to the router, so that the router completes its configuration according to the post-factory configuration information.

In some embodiments, when the backup data is not matched through step 410, step 414 may be executed, and the terminal determines the backup data according to the backup data selection operation; and sending the determined backup data or the post-factory configuration information in the determined backup data operation to the router. Specifically, referring to fig. 9, when the terminal locally has the backup data, the terminal may display a select backup data button on the first configuration guide page. The terminal may display a backup data list (not shown) in which backup data stored locally in the terminal is displayed in response to a user's operation of clicking a button for selecting backup data. The user can click a certain backup data in the backup data list, the terminal responds to the operation of the user, determines the backup data as the backup data selected by the user, and sends the backup data or the post-factory configuration information in the backup data to the router.

In some embodiments, when no backup data is matched via step 410, the user may configure the router via a first configure wizard page. Reference may be made specifically to the following description of

steps

416 and 418, which are not described in detail herein.

When the determination result in step 406 indicates that the terminal does not locally store backup data, the terminal may execute step 416, and send a configuration instruction to the router in response to the post-factory configuration operation, so as to perform post-factory configuration on the router. Specifically, the user may perform a configuration operation through the first configuration wizard page shown in fig. 8 to trigger the terminal to send a configuration instruction to the router. Specifically, a user can input response configuration information to input boxes corresponding to an internet access mode, a wireless network name, a wireless network password and the like in a first configuration guide page through operating input equipment of a terminal, for example, "X company" is input to the input box corresponding to the wireless network name, the terminal responds to a content change event in the input box, generates and sends a configuration instruction to the router, and the configuration instruction is used for configuring the wireless network name of the router; for another example, inputting "123456" to the input box corresponding to the wireless network password, and the terminal, in response to the content change event in the input box, generating and sending a configuration instruction to the router, where the configuration instruction is used to configure the wireless network password of the router; etc., which are not listed here.

When the user completes the post-factory configuration for the router, the configuration completion button on the first configuration wizard page may be clicked.

It is easy to understand that the backup data is generated after the router is configured after the router is shipped from the factory. The backup data can be referred to the following description and will not be described herein.

In some embodiments, step 406 may also be performed after step 408 and step 410. That is, when it is determined through step 402 that the router to which the terminal is currently connected is a new router, the terminal may perform step 408 and then perform step 410. When the backup data is not matched through step 410, the terminal may perform a step of determining whether it has the backup data locally.

In some embodiments, step 406 may also be performed in combination with step 410. Specifically, when the router currently connected to the terminal is determined to be the new router through step 402, and after the terminal performs step 408, and when step 410 is performed, it is found that there is no local backup data for matching, it may be determined that there is no local backup data.

In some embodiments, after step 416, the terminal may perform step 418 to obtain backup data for the router. Specifically, the terminal may send a configuration management page access request to the router in response to a configuration operation for the configuration completion button. In response to the request, the router sends configuration management page data to the terminal. And the terminal displays the configuration management page according to the configuration management page data. The configuration management page may be as shown in fig. 6. The user can click the backup data request in the configuration management page, and the terminal is triggered to send the backup data request to the router. The router transmits the backup data to the terminal in response to the backup data request. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the router may actively send the router backup data to the terminal after being configured.

Next, description will be given of factory configuration information in the backup data by way of example.

It is easy to understand that the old router has post-factory configuration information. The post-factory configuration may include configurations such as a configuration internet access mode (e.g., dial-up internet access, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) internet access), a wireless network name (e.g., Wi-Fi name), a wireless network password (e.g., Wi-Fi password), and the like, and correspondingly, the post-factory configuration information may include a configuration internet access mode, a wireless network name, a wireless network password, and the like. In one example, the post-factory configuration of the old router may be that the user accesses http:// 192.168.1.1// using a browser, inputs an administrator user name (e.g., admin), an initial password, and performs post-factory configuration on the router after successful login. In another example, the old router may be configured after factory, and at some point in time before, the user may use the currently used terminal 100 or another terminal to configure the router after factory.

In some embodiments, the wireless router provided in the embodiments of the present application may have an automatic network disconnection function. The user can configure the network disconnection time of the router so as to realize the automatic network disconnection of the router. For example, the user can set the off-line time to achieve the purpose of limiting the on-line time of children. The user may configure the offline time in the manner described above or the like. Therefore, in this embodiment of the present application, the post-factory configuration information may further include a network outage time.

In some embodiments, the wireless router provided in the embodiments of the present application may have an automatic restart function. The user may configure the restart time of the router to enable automatic restart of the router. For example, a user may be set to generally arrive at 18:00 and the restart time may be set to 18: 00. The router may be turned off when the user is away from home. When the network reaches 18:00, the router can be automatically restarted, so that a user can conveniently surf the internet. Therefore, in this embodiment of the present application, the post-factory configuration information may further include a restart time.

It should be noted that, in this embodiment of the application, the factory-after configuration information includes information such as an internet access manner, a wireless network name, a wireless network password, a network outage time, and a restart time, which is taken as an example, and is not exhaustive. The post-factory configuration information may be a generic name of information that a user configures a router by himself/herself after the router leaves a factory.

It is easy to understand that the user configures the router according to the scene where the router is located, for example, configures the internet access mode of the router according to the wired network corresponding to the location, and sets the wireless network name, the wireless network password, the network disconnection time, the restart time, and the like according to the use of the location. Taking a router in a company location as an example, a wireless network name, a wireless network password and the like of the router are generally related to company information, and network disconnection time, restart time and the like are generally related to working time. Taking the router of the personal residence as an example, the configured wireless network name and wireless network password are generally related to personal related information, and the network disconnection time, the restart time and the like are generally related to personal requirements.

In the embodiment of the present application, the information for identifying the location where the router is located may be referred to as location characteristic information of the router. The router configuration method provided by the embodiment of the application can associate or bind the site feature information of the router and the post-factory configuration information of the router to obtain the backup data.

Next, location characteristic information in backup data will be described as an example.

Generally, the maximum transmission distance of wireless signals transmitted by a wireless router can reach several tens of meters, even hundreds of meters. Therefore, for a router in a small place such as a residential house, the wireless coverage area is larger than the place range. And typically a venue is located partially or even entirely within the wireless coverage of a router in another venue. See figure 7. Location A, B, C, D (not shown) may be set as an adjacent location. A router A, B, C, D is provided in sequence at the site A, B, C, D. The routers A, B are within wireless coverage of each other and can acquire signals and thus information of each other. The routers B, C are within wireless coverage of each other and can acquire signals and thus information of each other. The information may include a Service Set Identifier (SSID) or a Basic Service Set Identifier (BSSID). The BSSID of the router is a Media Access Control (MAC) address of a data link layer of the router, and can be used to identify the router.

Generally, the user will not easily move the router, i.e. the router location will usually be fixed. In other words, the location of the wireless coverage of the router rarely changes. Therefore, the router provided by the embodiment of the present application can use the feature information of the routers around the router as the location feature information of the router to identify the location where the router is located. Taking router B as an example, when receiving the wireless signals of routers a and C, BSSIDs of routers a and C may be recorded as router B location characteristic information for identifying the location of router B. Taking router C as an example, upon receiving the router B signal, it may record the BSSID of router B as the location characteristic information of router C.

The above only takes the example that the router uses two or one surrounding router to identify its location, the description has been made on the way that the router identifies its location by the surrounding routers, and the number of other routers used by the router to identify its location is not limited, and the router can use three or more surrounding routers to identify its location more accurately.

It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, for any router, its neighboring router refers to a source router of a wireless signal received by the router. Taking router A, B as an example, when router a can receive the wireless signal of router B, router B belongs to the surrounding routers of router a.

In some embodiments, when the router receives signals of a plurality of surrounding routers, the routers may be ranked according to signal strength, and BSSIDs of routers with top ranking results are preferentially saved as the locale characteristic information. For example, the surrounding routers of router a are router B, C, D (not shown), E (not shown), F (not shown). For router a, router B, C, D is all stronger than router E, F, and router a may use the BSSID of router B, C, D as the location characteristic information of router a.

Further, the router can also utilize the received signal strength of the surrounding routers to more accurately identify the place of the router. Still referring to fig. 1, taking router a as an example, it may record BSSIDs of routers B and C, and may also record the received strengths of wireless signals of routers B and C as the location characteristic information of router a. Router D (not shown) may be set to receive the wireless signals of routers B and C, and router D may record the BSSIDs of routers B and C and the strength of the wireless signals as the location characteristic information of router D. When the intensity of the wireless signal recorded by the router D is different from the intensity of the wireless signal recorded by the router a, it can be considered that the locations of the router D and the router a are different.

In some embodiments, the Strength of the wireless Signal may specifically be a Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) of the wireless Signal.

In some embodiments, the router may collect the feature information of its surrounding routers and the strength of the wireless signal according to a preset period to update its location feature information. The preset period may be one day, one week, one month, and the like, and the preset period is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

In some embodiments, when the router is a wired router, that is, when the router is a device that converts a wired network such as a broadband network into a wireless network, and thus corresponds to a specific location, when the router is connected to a network of the location, and the location-corresponding network has a static Internet Protocol (IP) address, the IP address may be used as location characteristic information of the router to identify the location where the router is located.

For a particular site, the upstream network device or network interface to which the network cable accessing the site is connected is specific. Therefore, the feature information of the upstream network device or the network interface corresponding to the place can be used as the place feature information of the router in the place to identify the place where the router is located. In one example, the upstream network device may be an optical modem (optical modem), i.e., an optical modem, and the characteristic information may be its MAC address.

The user may restore factory settings to the router that has been configured after factory shipment. It is easy to understand that, in general, after a router is restored to a factory setting, it is likely that the router will continue to be used in the original place. Therefore, the identifier of the router may be used to identify the location of the router as the location characteristic information.

In some embodiments, the identifier of the router may specifically be a serial number (S/N) of the router. For any router, a serial number is printed on the nameplate of the router, and the router can be uniquely identified. The router may obtain its own serial number as its locale characteristic information.

In some embodiments, the identifier of the router may specifically be a Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) generated by the router.

In some embodiments, for any router, it may use one or more of feature information such as BSSIDs of surrounding routers, IP addresses corresponding to sites, feature information of upstream network devices or network interfaces corresponding to sites, and its own identification information as its site feature information. In some examples, the locale feature information may also include signal strengths of surrounding routers, which may be combined with other locale feature information (e.g., BSSIDs of surrounding routers, etc.) to identify the locale of the router, to improve the accuracy of identification of the locale of the router.

In one example of these embodiments, the different information described above may be prioritized. For example, BSSIDs of the surrounding routers belong to location feature information of a first priority, and signal strengths of the surrounding routers belong to location feature information of a second priority; for another example, the router itself identifies the location feature information belonging to the first priority, and BSSIDs of the surrounding routers belong to the location feature information of the second priority; etc., which are not listed here.

Next, backup data will be described by way of example.

The router can generate backup data according to the site feature information and post-factory configuration information. The generated backup data includes location characteristic information and post-factory configuration information.

In some embodiments, the router may record the site feature information and the post-factory configuration information into a data table to obtain backup data. Take the example that the surrounding routers of router 1 include routers 2, 3, 4, etc.

In one example of these embodiments, the data record form of the backup data of router 1 may be as shown in table 1.

TABLE 1

In this example, each of the three BSSIDs may be used to identify the locale of router 1. When one or both of the three BSSIDs are also used to identify the premises of the other router, then two or all of the three BSSIDs jointly identify the premises of router 1 to distinguish the premises of the other router.

In one example of these embodiments, the data record form of the recorded backup data of router 1 may be as shown in table 2.

TABLE 2

In this example, each of the three BSSIDs may be used to identify the locale of router 1. When these three BSSIDs are also used to identify the premises of other routers, then these three BSSIDs in combination with the corresponding RSSI identify the premises of router 1.

In one example of these embodiments, the data record form of the recorded backup data of router 1 may be as shown in table 3.

TABLE 3

In this example, each BSSID in the first priority may be used to identify the locale of router 1. When BSSIDs in the first priority are also used to identify the location of other routers, then the first priority may be used in conjunction with the second priority to identify the location of router 1.

In one example of these embodiments, the data record form of the recorded backup data of router 1 may be as shown in table 4.

TABLE 4

In this example, when the S/N and the new router do not match, a match may be made with the new router according to the BSSIDs in the second priority.

By the router configuration method provided by the embodiment of the application, the configuration information of the router after leaving the factory can be backed up, and backup data is generated by combining the site characteristic information of the router; when the new router needs to be configured after leaving the factory, backup data matched with the place where the new router is located can be obtained from the terminal, so that the new router can obtain the configuration after leaving the factory, wherein the configuration is matched with the place where the new router is located.

In one embodiment, a router configuration method is provided. Refer to fig. 10. Comprises the following steps.

Step 1000, the old router 1 generates first backup data according to the first location characteristic information and the first post-factory configuration information. Where old router 1 is located in a first place and old router 1 has been previously factory configured.

Step 1002, the old router 1 sends the first backup data to the terminal. Specifically, when the terminal is located in the first place and is connected to the old router 1, the terminal may transmit a backup data request to the old router 1. The old router 1 may transmit the first backup data to the terminal in response to the backup data request. Alternatively, the old router 1 may actively send backup data to the terminal. The first backup data includes first location characteristic information and post-factory configuration information of the old router 1.

Step 1004, the old router 2 generates second backup data according to the second location characteristic information and the second post-factory configuration information. Where the old router 2 is located in the second place and the old router 2 has been previously factory configured.

Step 1006, the old router 2 sends the second backup data to the terminal. Specifically, when the terminal is located in the second place and connected to the old router 2, the old router 2 may actively transmit the backup data to the terminal, or the old router 2 may transmit the backup data to the terminal according to a request of the terminal. The second backup data includes the second location characteristic information and the post-factory configuration information of the old router 2.

Step 1008, the new router 1 sends the first location characteristic information to the terminal. Specifically, when the old router 1 is restored to the factory setting and changed into the new router 1 and is still in the original location, the new router 1 may obtain location characteristic information corresponding to the old router, that is, first location characteristic information, and send the location characteristic information to the terminal.

Step 1010, the terminal may determine the first backup data according to the first location characteristic information.

Step 1012, the terminal sends the first backup data to the new router 1, so that the new router 1 completes the post-factory configuration according to the first backup information.

Step 1014, the new router 2 sends the second location characteristic information to the terminal. Specifically, when the old router 2 is replaced by the new router 2, the new router 2 may obtain the location characteristic information of the location where the old router 2 is located, that is, the second location characteristic information, and send the second location characteristic information to the terminal.

In step 1016, the terminal may determine the second backup data according to the second location characteristic information.

Step 1018, the terminal sends the second backup data to the new router 2, so that the new router 2 completes the post-factory configuration of itself according to the second backup information.

It should be noted that, the scheme of the present embodiment is described above by taking the old router 1, the new router 1, the old router 2, and the new router 2 as examples, and the present embodiment may only include steps 1000, 1002, 1008, 1010, and 1012, or may only include steps 1004, 1006, 1014, 1016, and 1016. In the solution provided in this embodiment, the terminal may manage one pair of old and new routers, or may manage multiple pairs of old and new routers.

The router configuration method provided by the embodiment can backup the configuration information of the router, and generate backup data by combining the location characteristic information of the router; when the new router needs to be configured, the backup data matched with the place where the new router is located can be obtained from the terminal, so that the new router can obtain the configuration matched with the place where the new router is located.

In one embodiment, a backup data determination method is provided. In this embodiment, the locale feature information includes first priority locale feature information, such as the S/N of a router, and second priority locale feature information, such as the BSSIDs of the three surrounding routers with the strongest signals for the router. Referring to fig. 11, the method includes the following steps.

Step 1100, the terminal acquires the location feature information of the new router. Wherein the locale feature information packet is the S/N of the new router. In general, when one router is restored to factory setting, it is likely that the router will continue to be used in the original place. Therefore, in this scenario, the S/N of the new router serves as the location characteristic information of the new router to identify the location where the router is located.

In step 1102, the terminal first determines whether the S/N of the new router is consistent with the S/N in the backup data;

if so, the terminal performs step 1106 to send the backup data to the router.

If they are not the same, the terminal determines in step 1104 whether the BSSID of at least one of the three neighboring routers for which the new router signal is strongest is the same as the BSSID of the backup data (if only the signal of one or two or three routers is received, it determines whether the BSSID of at least one of the one or two or three routers is the same as the BSSID of the backup data).

If so, the terminal performs step 1106 to send the backup data to the router.

If not, the terminal executes step 1108 to determine the backup data according to the backup data selection operation and sends the determined backup data to the new router. Specifically, in response to a user operation, the terminal may display a list of backup data, which may include at least one backup data. The user may perform a backup data selection operation to select one of the backup data in the list of backup data. And the terminal responds to the backup data selection operation, determines the backup data and further sends the determined backup data to the new router.

In one embodiment, a router configuration method is provided. Referring to fig. 12A, the method includes the following steps.

Step 1200a, the terminal sends a configuration instruction to the router a.

The new router may also be a router that has been configured before the factory and is now restored to the factory setting. The user may turn on router a to provide wireless coverage. A terminal 1 located within a site 1 is installed with a router management application. When the terminal 1 is connected to the router a, the user can open the router management application. And the user successfully logs in the router management application by inputting the user name and the password of the administrator. The terminal may display a first configuration wizard page. At this time, the terminal does not store the backup data locally. The user can carry out configuration operation after leaving the factory based on the first configuration guide page, and the terminal sends a configuration instruction to the router in response to the operation of the user so as to configure the internet access mode, the wireless network name, the wireless network password and the like of the router.

In step 1202a, router a acquires location characteristic information of location 1. Specifically, reference may be made to the above description of the method embodiment shown in fig. 4, which is not described herein again.

In step 1204a, router a generates backup data. Specifically, reference may be made to the above description of the method embodiment shown in fig. 4, which is not described herein again.

Step 1200B, router B obtains the locale feature information for locale 1.

Router a within site 1 is replaced by router B, which may provide wireless coverage for site 1 in place of router a. After the terminal 1 is connected to the router B, the terminal 1 may determine whether the router B is a new router. Reference may be made to the above description of step 1200a for defining a new router, which is not described herein again. When the terminal 1 determines that the router B is a new router, a page as shown in fig. 13A may be displayed to prompt the user whether to configure the router.

The user may click on the immediate configuration button in the page shown in fig. 13A to trigger terminal 1 to send a venue characteristic information request to router B. In response to the location characteristic information request, the router B transmits the characteristic information of the location 1 acquired by it to the terminal 1.

After the router B is turned on, the router B may automatically obtain the location feature information of the location 1. Alternatively, the router B may acquire the location feature information of the location 1 in response to the location feature information request transmitted by the terminal 1, and then transmit the acquired location feature information to the terminal 1.

In step 1202B, the router B transmits the location feature information of the location 1 to the terminal 1.

When the terminal 1 is connected to the router B, the terminal 1 can determine whether the router B is a new router.
