Bandwidth sharing method and device

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a bandwidth sharing method and a device which are applied to a first routing terminal, and the method comprises the steps: if first bandwidth which is occupied by data transmission in the present network reaches a preset first bandwidth threshold is detected; if yes, a bandwidth sharing request is sent to a second routing terminal; when an allowed sharing response sent by the second routing terminal is received, second bandwidth shared by the second routing terminal through presetting communication connection is acquired; and network data are transmitted by utilizing the first bandwidth and the second bandwidth. According to the invention, both sides of neighbors do not buy higher bandwidth, and dial-up accounts are not be added, so that the Ethernet WAN port bandwidth upper limit is broken, the bandwidth of the both sides of neighbors share through a wireless way, then users who participate the bandwidth sharing can use the sum of bandwidth of the both sides, and the internet speed can be effectively improved without adding cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to router technology, in particular to a bandwidth sharing method and device. Background technique [0002] At present, users may need a large network bandwidth when watching videos online and playing large-scale games. At present, if they want to increase the Internet bandwidth, one is to purchase higher bandwidth, and the other is to use PPPOE (Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet, point Point-to-point connection protocol) to superimpose more bandwidth to obtain higher bandwidth. For example: suppose an Internet account provides 10M bandwidth. If you want to make the Internet bandwidth reach 20M, you need to open another Internet account that provides 10M bandwidth. The PPPOE port dials two accounts at the same time, and then sets the superimposed bandwidth. [0003] However, in practical applications, two 10M accounts are superimposed into 20M, and the price is often more expensive than a single 20M account, so it has no prac...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in practical applications, two 10M accounts are superimposed into 20M, and the price is often more expensive than a single 20M account, so it has no practical significance; some operators do not allow one device to perform multi-account dialing, which will make it impossible to realize multiple accounts. Dial bandwidth superposition; two accounts can only be of the same operator, if the broadband of different operators cannot be superimposed

[0004] Moreover, for the bandwidth that the user has purchased, since the user cannot always use the maximum bandwidth when surfing the Internet, for example, the user may occupy a large bandwidth when watching a video, and may occupy a small bandwidth when the user browses the web, so that the remaining bandwidth will be idle. , resulting in a waste of network bandwidth resources
