Wireless access method and device thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a wireless access method and a device thereof. The method is characterized in that: a wireless access device is added between a user terminal and a WLAN base station, the device comprises an upstream wireless module and a downstream wireless module, the upstream wireless module has a wireless client which has a first device inner interface used for routing and a second device inner interface used for bridging, the downstream wireless module has a first VAP, a second VAP, the first VAP is in bridge connection with a wired LAN port, the first VAP and the wired LAN port connect with the first device inner interface through a routing module, the second VAP is in bridge connection with the second device inner interface, an SSID (Service Set Identifier) of the second VAP is consistent with the WLAN base station; the wireless client associates with the WLAN base station, when association is successful, an authentication process with the WLAN base station is carried out; when a wireless user terminal accesses a network in a routing mode, the wireless user terminal associates with the first VAP; when wireless user terminal accesses a network in a bridging mode, the wireless user terminal associates with the second VAP. According to the invention, disposition of wireless hot spots is expanded.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of wireless technology, in particular to a wireless access method and equipment. Background technique [0002] In recent years, major operators have increased the deployment of wireless hotspots in order to divert and decompress the third generation (3G) network, and at the same time compete for more customer resources. Especially mobile operators, which have set up a large number of wireless local area network (WLAN, Wireless Local Area Network) base stations, but due to the transmission distance of WLAN signals, they still need a large number of wireless base stations in their "last mile" network construction. Into the equipment, so that the wireless signal can cover residential areas, office buildings and other public places, only in this way can the Internet service be truly and effectively provided for users. [0003] In order to serve operators, such wireless access equipment should not only meet the sp...

Problems solved by technology

At present, these wireless access devices that operators have deployed can only be deployed outdoors, which brings many problems such as site selection, erection, and power supply, and limits the large-scale deployment of wireless hotspots.
