Configuration methods and devices for WIFI module of internet of things device

Abstract

The invention discloses configuration methods and devices for a WIFI module of an internet of things device. One of the methods comprises steps of configuring the WIFI module of the internet of things device into a configuration state, and starting a monitoring configuration mode and a virtual access point configuration mode; monitoring configuration information sent by a terminal in the monitoring configuration mode, and waiting for terminal connection and then receiving the configuration information sent by the terminal in the virtual access point configuration mode; and after receiving the configuration information sent by the terminal in the monitoring configuration mode or the virtual access point configuration mode, performing network connection configuration according to the configuration information. Through adoption of the method, the configuration success rate is greatly improved, and the network access success rate of the internet of things products is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of the Internet of Things, in particular to a method and device for configuring a WIFI module of an Internet of Things device. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the Internet of Things era, the types and stocks of WIFI IoT products on the market are also increasing sharply. The technology of locally or remotely controlling WIFI IoT products through network terminals is very mature. Many smart digital products, including smart medical instruments, smart home appliances, smart homes and other benefits to people's lives, have been equipped with WIFI network access functions. Network access is one of the basic conditions for intelligent networking of home appliances, but most of these products are convenient and screenless, and cannot manually enter the name (SSID) and password (PASSWD) to connect to the wireless network. [0003] The importance of connecting screenless wifi IoT products to the ...

Problems solved by technology

However, the execution of the mobile APP and the WIFI module of the IoT home appliance is asynchronous. The mobile APP switches to the SoftAP mode, but the WIFI module may not be in the Smartlink configuration mode before the time; similarly, the WIFI module has been converted to the SoftAP configuration mode. , but the mobile phone is still in the Smartlink configuration mode due to slow operation

Such a sequential execution method is prone to confusion due to the asynchrony of the two parties
