Network access device and method

Abstract

The invention discloses a network access device, which is used for a mobile terminal. The network access device comprises a determination module which is used for determining a first wireless Internet module which does not establish Wi-Fi connection with an external hot in various wireless Internet modules of a mobile terminal, and a sharing module which is used for starting up the hot point function of the first wireless Internet module and controlling the first Internet module to share the network resource of a second wireless Internet module which is in the Wi-Fi connection state. The invention can reduce the cost of the Internet access service.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a network access device and method. Background technique [0002] As we all know, mobile terminals usually implement network sharing based on Wi-Fi technology. For example, mobile terminals can enable their own hotspot functions to provide network access services for other mobile terminals that need to access the network. However, when the mobile terminal starts the hotspot function, it is equivalent to a wireless router. At this time, the Wi-Fi signal receiving function is turned off, that is, the mobile terminal cannot establish a Wi-Fi connection with an external hotspot at the same time and activate its own hotspot function. For example, the portable Wi-Fi (WirelessFidelity, wireless fidelity) hotspot function provided by mobile phones can convert mobile networks (that is, networks provided by operators, such as 2G, 3G, or 4G networks, etc.) into Wi-Fi signals. The...

However, when the mobile terminal activates the hotspot function, it is equivalent to a wireless router. At this time, the Wi-Fi signal receiving function is closed, that is, the mobile terminal cannot simultaneously establish a Wi-Fi connection with an external hotspot and activate its own hotspot function. For example, the portable Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity, wireless fidelity) hotspot function provided by the mobile phone can convert the mobile network (that is, the network provided by the operator, such as 2G, 3G or 4G network, etc.) into a Wi-Fi signal. The provision method will greatly consume the network traffic of the mobile terminal, resulting in a higher cost of network access services
