Abstract

The invention discloses a method for switching multiple networks, an instant messaging client, a management server and a system; the technical proposal comprises that: a current network is switched into a target network when receiving a switching request sent by a user or detecting the current network to be abnormal; a message containing a reservation marker is sent to the management server, the marker is used for expressing the switching from the logging status of the current network to the logging status of the target network to inform the management server of maintaining the logging status of the current network in the target network and continuing operating. By adopting the technical proposal of the invention, when the instant messaging client is switched into the target network from the current network, the user experience in the switching process is ensured, the smooth transition of switching from the logging status of the current network to the logging status in the target network of the instant messaging client is realized, thus achieving optimal user experience.

Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of communication networks, and more specifically, relates to a multi-network switching method, an instant messaging client, a management server and a system. Background technique

[0002] At present, instant messaging software, as a commonly used online communication software, is widely used in communication networks. Since instant messaging software is an online network program, a continuous and stable network is required to provide connection services for it. At present, the commonly used network connections in China mainly include: WIFI (Wireless Fidelity, wireless broadband), 3G (3rd Generation, third-generation digital communication), GPRS (Global Satellite Positioning) and so on. The biggest advantage of WIFI is that the transmission speed is high, which can reach 11Mbps, the effective distance is very long, and it is compatible with various existing 802.11DSSS devices; however, the effective ...

Embodiment Construction

[0057] The technical solutions described in the embodiments of the present invention are described below in comparison with the prior art.

[0058] At present, there are many networks that can provide services for users. Different networks have different advantages and disadvantages. Online network programs (such as instant messaging software) bring users different experiences under different network connection methods, which can be reflected in network speed, stability, tariffs, security, etc. The wireless network program is faced with a variety of optional network connections, and the user needs to dynamically switch the network connection according to the actual situation to obtain a higher user experience.

[0059] In the prior art, when the instant messaging client is running or logging in, the user is prompted to select one of the accessible network lists as the current access network by asking. When the user needs to switch to other networks or the current network canno...
