[0031] See figure 1 , The first embodiment of the wireless hotspot-based network sharing method of the present invention is proposed. The method includes the following steps:
[0032] S11. Set usage restrictions on access devices.
[0033] Access devices can be mobile terminals such as mobile phones and tablets, or fixed terminals such as personal computers. The use restriction conditions can be set separately for each access device, or the use restriction conditions can be set uniformly for each access device.
[0034] Specifically, after the wireless hotspot is turned on, when the access device is connected to the wireless hotspot or after the wireless hotspot is connected, the use restriction conditions can be set for each access device. At this time, the use restriction conditions of each access device may be the same or different. Or, before turning on the wireless hotspot, set the usage restrictions uniformly on the access devices; or after turning on the wireless hotspot, before the access devices connect to the wireless hotspot or after connecting to the wireless hotspot, set the restrictions on the access devices uniformly. At that time, all access devices have the same restrictions.
[0035] When setting usage restrictions, you can set the maximum usage flow of the access device, you can also set the maximum usage time of the access device, you can also set the access blacklist of the access device's website (that is, access to certain websites is prohibited), and so on.
[0036] The wireless hotspot may be a wifi hotspot, a Bluetooth hotspot, and other hotspots that can realize wireless network sharing.
[0037] The devices that enable the wireless hotspot sharing network can be mobile terminals such as mobile phones and tablets, or fixed terminals such as personal computers. The shared network can be 2G, 3G, 4G and other mobile communication networks of mobile terminals, such as General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) network, Enhanced Data Rate for GSM Evolution (EDGE) ) Network, Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access (TD-SCDMA) network, High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) network, Long Term Evolution (LTE) The network, etc., can also be a wired network of a personal computer.
[0038] S12. Judge whether the access device connected to the wireless hotspot meets the usage restriction condition. When the usage restriction condition is reached, step S13 is executed.
[0039] In the process of network sharing, the usage of each access device is monitored in real time or regularly, and it is judged whether each access device meets its usage restriction conditions.
[0040] S13. Disconnect the access device from the wireless hotspot.
[0041] When a certain access device reaches its use restriction condition, the connection between the access device and the wireless hotspot is disconnected, and the access device is prohibited from continuing to share the network.
[0042] Specifically, when the usage restriction condition is the maximum usage flow rate, the usage flow rate of the access device is monitored, and when the usage flow rate of the access device reaches the maximum usage flow rate, the connection between the access device and the wireless hotspot is disconnected. When the use restriction is the maximum use time, monitor the use time of the access device, and when the use time of the access device reaches the maximum use time, disconnect the access device from the wireless hotspot. When the use restriction condition is website access blacklist, monitor the websites accessed by the access device, and disconnect the access device from the wireless hotspot when the access device accesses the website on the blacklist.
[0043] Further, it is also possible to set sharing restrictions on the wireless hotspot before or after the wireless hotspot is turned on. During the network sharing process, monitor the network sharing situation, and when the sharing limit conditions are reached, the wireless hotspot is turned off and the network is no longer shared.
[0044] The sharing restrictions include maximum sharing traffic, maximum sharing duration, etc. When the network sharing traffic reaches the maximum sharing traffic, the wireless hotspot is turned off; when the network sharing time reaches the maximum sharing time, the wireless hotspot is turned off. In this way, the network sharing is managed and controlled as a whole to prevent users from causing losses due to excessive sharing.
[0045] The wireless hotspot-based network sharing method of the embodiment of the present invention realizes the individual management and control of each access device during the network sharing process by setting usage restriction conditions for each access device, and improves the controllability of the device for network sharing It is conducive to the reasonable and effective use of the shared network, improves the efficiency of the network, and improves the user experience.
[0046] See figure 2 , The second embodiment of the wireless hotspot-based network sharing method of the present invention is proposed. In this embodiment, setting the maximum usage flow rate as the usage restriction condition is taken as an example. The method includes the following steps:
[0047] S21. Set the maximum usage flow rate for the access device.
[0048] S22. Monitor the usage flow of the access device connected to the wireless hotspot. It is determined whether the usage flow of the access device reaches the maximum usage flow, and when the maximum usage flow is reached, step S23 is executed.
[0049] S23. Disconnect the access device from the wireless hotspot.
[0050] For example, terminal A turns on the wireless hotspot. When terminals B, C, and D connect to the wireless hotspot or after connecting to the wireless hotspot, terminal A sets the maximum usage data of terminals B, C, and D to 30M, 35M, and 50M, respectively. During the network sharing process, terminal A monitors the usage flow of terminals B, C, and D respectively. When the usage flow of terminal B reaches 30M, terminal A disconnects terminal B from the wireless hotspot and prohibits terminal B from continuing to share Network; if the usage flow of terminals C and D does not reach their maximum usage flow, they will not be affected and continue to share the network.
[0051] In another example, terminal A turns on the wireless hotspot. When terminals B, C, and D connect to the wireless hotspot or after they connect to the wireless hotspot, terminal A evenly distributes the usage data to terminals B, C, and D, and uniformly sets the maximum usage data to 50M. In the process of network sharing, terminal A monitors the usage flow of terminals B, C, and D respectively. When the usage flow of terminal C reaches 50M, terminal A disconnects terminal C from the wireless hotspot and prohibits terminal C from continuing to share Network; if the traffic of terminals B and D does not reach 50M, they will not be affected and continue to share the network.
[0052] Further, it is also possible to set sharing restrictions on the wireless hotspot before or after the wireless hotspot is turned on. During the network sharing process, monitor the network sharing situation, and when the sharing limit conditions are reached, the wireless hotspot is turned off and the network is no longer shared.
[0053] The sharing restrictions include maximum sharing traffic, maximum sharing duration, etc. When the network sharing traffic reaches the maximum sharing traffic, the wireless hotspot is turned off; when the network sharing time reaches the maximum sharing time, the wireless hotspot is turned off. In this way, the network sharing is managed and controlled as a whole to prevent users from causing losses due to excessive sharing.
[0054] The wireless hotspot-based network sharing method of the embodiment of the present invention realizes the independent management and control of the use traffic of each access device during the network sharing process by setting the maximum usage flow of each access device, and improves the device's network sharing The controllability of the network is conducive to the reasonable and effective use of the shared network, which improves the efficiency of the network and enhances the user experience.
[0055] See image 3 , The third embodiment of the wireless hotspot-based network sharing method of the present invention is proposed. In this embodiment, setting the maximum use time as a use restriction condition is taken as an example. The method includes the following steps:
[0056] S31. Set a maximum use time for the access device.
[0057] S32. Monitor the usage time of the access device connected to the wireless hotspot. It is determined whether the use time of the access device reaches the maximum use time, and when the maximum use time is reached, step S33 is executed.
[0058] S33. Disconnect the access device from the wireless hotspot.
[0059] For example, terminal A turns on the wireless hotspot. When terminals B, C, and D are connected to the wireless hotspot or after they are connected to the wireless hotspot, terminal A sets the maximum usage time for terminals B, C, and D to 30 minutes, 35 minutes, and 50 minutes, respectively. During network sharing, terminal A monitors the use time of terminals B, C, and D respectively. When the use time of terminal B reaches 30 minutes, terminal A disconnects terminal B from the wireless hotspot, and terminal B is prohibited from continuing Sharing the network; if the use time of terminals C and D does not reach their maximum use time, they will not be affected and continue to share the network.
[0060] For another example, before terminal A turns on the wireless hotspot, the maximum use time for the access devices is uniformly set to 50 minutes, and after terminal A turns on the wireless hotspot, terminals B, C, and D access the wireless hotspot. During the network sharing process, terminal A monitors the use time. When the use time reaches 50 minutes, terminal A disconnects terminals B, C, and D from the wireless hotspot, and terminals B, C, and D are prohibited from continuing to share the network.
[0061] Further, it is also possible to set sharing restrictions on the wireless hotspot before or after the wireless hotspot is turned on. During the network sharing process, monitor the network sharing situation, and when the sharing limit conditions are reached, the wireless hotspot is turned off and the network is no longer shared.
[0062] The sharing restrictions include maximum sharing traffic, maximum sharing duration, etc. When the network sharing traffic reaches the maximum sharing traffic, the wireless hotspot is turned off; when the network sharing time reaches the maximum sharing time, the wireless hotspot is turned off. In this way, the network sharing is managed and controlled as a whole to prevent users from causing losses due to excessive sharing.
[0063] The wireless hotspot-based network sharing method of the embodiment of the present invention realizes the independent management and control of the use time of each access device during the network sharing process by setting the maximum use time for each access device, and improves the device's network division. The controllability of the network is conducive to the reasonable and effective use of the shared network, which improves the efficiency of the network and enhances the user experience.
[0064] In some embodiments, security information, such as an access key, can also be set for each access device.
[0065] See Figure 4 , An embodiment of the wireless hotspot-based network sharing device of the present invention is proposed. The device includes a setting module 10 and a monitoring module 20, wherein:
[0066] Setting module 10: used to set use restriction conditions for access devices.
[0067] Access devices can be mobile terminals such as mobile phones and tablets, or fixed terminals such as personal computers. The setting module 10 can individually set usage restriction conditions for each access device, or can uniformly set usage restriction conditions for each access device.
[0068] Specifically, after the wireless hotspot is turned on, when the access device is connected to the wireless hotspot or after the wireless hotspot is connected, the setting module 10 can set the use restriction conditions for each access device. At this time, the use restriction conditions of each access device may be the same. It may be different. Or, before turning on the wireless hotspot, the setting module 10 uniformly sets the usage restrictions on the access devices; or after turning on the wireless hotspot, before or after the wireless hotspot is connected, the setting module 10 uniforms the access devices Set the use restriction conditions. At this time, the use restriction conditions of all access devices are the same.
[0069] When the setting module 10 sets the usage restriction conditions, it can set the maximum usage flow of the access device, can also set the maximum usage time of the access device, and can also set the website access blacklist of the access device (that is, access to certain websites is prohibited), and many more.
[0070] The wireless hotspot may be a wifi hotspot, a Bluetooth hotspot, and other hotspots that can realize wireless network sharing.
[0071] The devices that enable the wireless hotspot sharing network can be mobile terminals such as mobile phones and tablets, or fixed terminals such as personal computers. The shared network can be 2G, 3G, 4G and other mobile communication networks of mobile terminals, such as GPRS network, EDGE network, TD-SCDMA network, HSDPA network, LTE network, etc., or the wired network of personal computers.
[0072] The monitoring module 20 is used for disconnecting the connection between the access device and the wireless hotspot when the access device connected to the wireless hotspot reaches the usage restriction condition.
[0073] During the network sharing process, the monitoring module 20 monitors the usage status of each access device in real time or regularly, and judges whether each access device reaches its usage restriction conditions. When a certain access device reaches its use restriction condition, the monitoring module 20 disconnects the access device from the wireless hotspot, and prohibits the access device from continuing to share the network.
[0074] For example: when the usage restriction condition is the maximum usage flow, the monitoring module 20 monitors the usage flow of the access device through the flow monitor, and when the usage flow of the access device reaches the maximum usage flow, it disconnects the access device from the wireless hotspot . When the use restriction condition is the maximum use time, the monitoring module 20 monitors the use time of the access device through the time monitor, and when the use time of the access device reaches the maximum use time, disconnects the access device from the wireless hotspot. When the use restriction condition is a website access blacklist, the monitoring module 20 monitors websites visited by the access device, and when the access device accesses a website on the blacklist, the access device is disconnected from the wireless hotspot.
[0075] Further, the setting module 10 can also set sharing restriction conditions on the wireless hotspot before or after the wireless hotspot is turned on. During the network sharing process, the monitoring module 20 monitors the network sharing situation, and when the sharing limit condition is reached, the wireless hotspot is turned off and the network is no longer shared.
[0076] The sharing restrictions include maximum sharing traffic, maximum sharing duration, etc. When the network sharing traffic reaches the maximum sharing traffic, the monitoring module 20 turns off the wireless hotspot; when the network sharing time reaches the maximum sharing time, the monitoring module 20 turns off the wireless hotspot. In this way, the network sharing is managed and controlled as a whole to prevent users from causing losses due to excessive sharing.
[0077] In some embodiments, the setting module 10 may also separately set security information, such as an access key, for each access device.
[0078] The wireless hotspot-based network sharing device of the embodiment of the present invention realizes the individual management and control of each access device during the network sharing process by setting usage restriction conditions for each access device, and improves the controllability of the device to the network sharing It is conducive to the reasonable and effective use of the shared network, improves the efficiency of the network, and improves the user experience.
