Abstract

The invention relates to a device function extension method. A device is provided with at least one extension interface. The method includes the steps that whether a mobile storage device is connected to the extension interface or not is detected; when the mobile storage device is connected to the extension interface, at least one executable file identifier in the mobile storage device is obtained; an executable file corresponding to the executable file identifier is searched for and runs. According to the method, it is only required that one extension interface is additionally formed in the device needing to be extended such as a router, it is not required that a storage device is arranged in the device such as the router in advance, the functions of the device such as the router can be extended, and manufacturing cost of the router is greatly reduced. The functions of the router can be extended just by inserting the mobile storage device into the extension interface of the router, and the operating steps in the extension process are simple and convenient and fast to perform.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of communication equipment, and in particular, to a method and device for extending equipment functions. Background technique [0002] Most of the Internet access modes of ordinary residential users are broadband Internet access, and when the residents have multiple computers to access the Internet at the same time, they will use a router. [0003] Currently, routers on the market can only send and receive data, which is the most basic function of routers. However, with the development, users hope to process data in time during the data sending and receiving stage, such as: sharing, backup, etc., but due to cost and other reasons, the storage space of the router is limited, which cannot meet the needs of users. Contents of the invention [0004] In order to overcome the problems existing in related technologies, the present disclosure provides a method and device for extending device functions. ...
