Embodiment Construction

[0026] The invention is presently exemplified in the context of a visiting user with a Wi-Fi terminal, specifically a mobile phone, who is visiting a residential user. A residential user's home is provided with a Wi-Fi access point (AP), specifically a decoder box and a television. The decoder box is connected to the TV.

[0027] Reference below figure 2 The pairing method of the present invention is described.

[0028] When the visiting user is located in the home of the residential user, the decoder box detects the presence of the mobile phone (step E1 ).

[0029] The presence of the mobile phone is detected as follows.

[0030] In general, any Wi-Fi terminal, such as a mobile phone owned by the visiting user, and not paired with a Wi-Fi access point (such as a decoder box) scans its environment for Wi-Fi networks and access points. entry point. To this end, the Wi-Fi terminal transmits a request frame (called "probe request") enabling the Wi-Fi terminal to communicate ...

Abstract

A method for pairing a Wi-Fi type terminal with a Wi-Fi type access point connected to a display unit is provided. The method includes steps, implemented by the access point, of: detecting the presence of a terminal; detecting whether the terminal is located near the access point; if the presence of the terminal near the access point is detected, displaying a message proposing to pair the terminalto the access point on the display unit; when a pairing acceptance signal is received, displaying a pairing information message on the display unit providing assistance for pairing the terminal withthe access point.

Description

[0001] The invention relates to the field of pairing Wi-Fi type terminals with Wi-Fi type access points. Background technique [0002] Pairing of a Wi-Fi terminal (eg, a mobile phone) with a Wi-Fi access point (eg, a decoder box (or "set-top box")) or with a residential gateway typically proceeds as follows. [0003] When an endpoint searches for available networks, it first searches for such available networks by scanning its environment. [0004] The end user then selects one of the available networks on the terminal and enters an encryption key in order to access the selected network. [0005] The encryption key is sometimes written on a label located on the access point, or it may be known to a user who previously defined the encryption key via the access point's configuration interface. [0006] Encryption keys can also be entered by scanning a Quick Response (QR) type barcode. Using a QR code usually requires the use of a specific application that has been downloaded t...
