[0053] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0054] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are generally of one type, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, "and / or" in the specification and claims represents at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the objects associated with each other are in an "or" relationship.

For example, at least one item a can represent any number of a; for another example, one item or multiple items among a, b and c can represent: a, b, c, ab, ac, bc, or abc, where a, b, c can be single or multiple; "and / or" is a kind of description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three kinds of relationships, for example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone, where A and B can be singular or plural. The character " / " indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0056] Although operations or steps are described in a specific order in the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, it should not be understood that it is required to perform these operations or steps in the specific order shown or in a serial order, or to perform all the operations or steps shown to obtain the desired results. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, these operations or steps can be performed in series; these operations or steps can also be performed in parallel; or some of these operations or steps can be performed.

[0057] With the development of technology, smart devices in people's lives are becoming more and more popular. In order to control multiple smart devices, it is necessary to connect various smart home devices to the router and then bind the accounts with the user's smart devices.

[0058] The existing network connection method for smart devices is mainly to connect the user's smart device to the smart device to be configured, and the user manually enters the Wi-Fi information through the APP and completes the network configuration operation. The smart device to be configured then connects to the router and the server, and finally the user manually binds the device to the user account.

[0059] It can be seen that the existing network configuration methods often rely on the continuous participation of users and require manual operation by users. Once the user operates improperly or the network is interrupted, the device may not be able to successfully access the network or bind to the account.

[0060] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a network configuration method, device, electronic device and readable storage medium for smart devices. On the one hand, if the smart home device encounters a network interruption, it will automatically obtain the network account, network password and user account information of the terminal device that has logged in after reconnecting to the network, automatically enter the network configuration state, and automatically complete the binding of the device and the user account after the network configuration is successful, thereby realizing an automated device configuration process without the need for manual operation by the user, and realizing the automation of network configuration. Even if the device is disconnected from the network or restarted in the middle, the network configuration process can still be completed smoothly; on the other hand, exiting the App of the terminal device will not cause the loss of network configuration information or the interruption of the binding process, thereby realizing the automation of network configuration and improving the user experience.

[0061] First, an application scenario involved in an embodiment of the present application is described.

[0062] See also Figure 1 The network configuration method of the smart device provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to Figure 1 In the system architecture shown, there is at least one smart home device 10 and a terminal device 20.

[0063] In this embodiment, the smart home devices 10 may include: smart air conditioners, smart range hoods, smart refrigerators, smart ovens, smart stoves, smart washing machines, smart water heaters, smart washing equipment, smart dishwashers, smart projection equipment, smart TVs, smart clothes drying racks, smart curtains, smart audio and video, smart sockets, smart speakers, smart speakers, smart fresh air equipment, smart kitchen and bathroom equipment, smart bathroom equipment, smart sweeping robots, smart window cleaning robots, smart mopping robots, smart air purification equipment, smart steamers, smart microwave ovens, smart kitchen treasures, smart purifiers, smart water dispensers, smart cameras, etc.

[0064] In this embodiment, the terminal device 20 may be an electronic device such as a mobile phone, a smart phone, or an electronic computer.

[0065] In some embodiments, the smart home device 10 and the terminal device 20 are connected via a network. The network may include: a wired network, a wireless network, a wired network may include: a wide area network, a metropolitan area network, a local area network, and a wireless network may include: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth.

[0066] Optionally, a client program that can work in conjunction with the smart home cloud platform is installed in the terminal device 20 . The client program can be used to provide a user operation interface to facilitate the user to manage and remotely control at least one smart home device 10 .

[0067] Optionally, the terminal device 20 includes an App module, which is used to encrypt the network account, network password, user account information, etc. and send them to the Wi-Fi module of the smart home device 10, and allow the user to exit the App module.

[0068] Optionally, the smart home device 10 includes a Wi-Fi module, which is used to receive the network account, network password and user account information sent by the user through the App module on the terminal device 20, and automatically connect the device to the specified Wi-Fi network. In this process, the Wi-Fi module has the function of breakpoint resumption. Even if the network configuration process is interrupted, the Wi-Fi module can still continue the network configuration when the network is reconnected.

[0069] Optionally, the smart home device 10 also includes a server module and a status feedback module. The server module is used for uploading the device information and user account information of the device to the server through the server module after the Wi-Fi module is successfully connected to the network, so that the server can perform the device binding operation according to the user account information and establish the association relationship between the device and the user account. The status feedback module is used to feedback the network configuration and binding status information to the server and App to ensure that the user can view the device status in real time.

[0070] In some embodiments, the smart home device 10 may also be connected to a server 30 .

[0071] In this embodiment, the server 30 can be a computing device such as a computer, a desktop computer, a rack server, a blade server, a tower server or a cabinet server. The server 30 can also be an independent computing device. The server 30 can also be a computing device cluster composed of multiple electronic devices.

[0072] Optionally, the server 30 can bind the smart home device 10 to the user account. The server 30 can also manage the network configuration status to ensure that the network configuration process can be successfully completed even if the device is disconnected or restarted midway.

[0073] Optionally, the server 30 is a smart home cloud platform, which can provide the user with at least one smart home family account, and the user can manage at least one smart home device installed in the home through the family account.

[0074] The network configuration method for a smart device provided in an embodiment of the present application is described in detail below.

[0075] Figure 2 is a flowchart of a method for configuring a network for an intelligent device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The method for configuring a network for an intelligent device is applied to Figure 1 Smart home devices such as Figure 2 As shown, the method may include:

[0076] Step 101: When the smart home device is reconnected to the network, obtain the network account, network password, and user account information of the terminal device that has logged in.

[0077] In the embodiment of the present application, the network account and the network password may be the account and password of the wireless network in the user's home. For example, the network account may be the wireless network name (Service Set Identifier, SSID) of the wireless router in the user's home network, and the network password may be the wireless network password of the wireless router in the user's home network.

[0078] It is understandable that when there are special circumstances such as network outage, power outage, smart home devices needing to be restarted in batches, network passwords being changed or reset, etc., smart home devices can obtain the preset network account and network password and reconnect to the network.

[0079] In some embodiments, the network configuration method of the smart device may further include: during the network configuration process, the smart home device stores the current network configuration progress in real time; step 101 may include: in the case of reconnection after network configuration interruption, the smart home device obtains the network account, network password and user account information logged in by the terminal device, and resends the network configuration request to the server. Reconnection after network configuration interruption includes reconnection of the smart home device to the network after network configuration interruption due to network interruption, power interruption, batch restart of smart home devices, change or reset of network connection password.

[0080] Step 102: Connect to the network using the network account and network password according to the stored current network configuration progress.

[0081] In the embodiment of the present application, the current network configuration progress is stored in real time by the smart home device during the network configuration process. The network configuration process refers to the process in which the smart device to be configured obtains router information (such as SSID and network password), connects to the router, and then binds the account with the terminal device.

[0082] It should be noted that the current network configuration progress may be any one of the multiple network configuration nodes in the network configuration process, and the current network configuration process may also be the percentage of the completed network configuration process in the entire network configuration process. Exemplarily, the multiple network configuration nodes may include: device firmware version, start connecting to a router, current network signal strength, connection speed, frequency band, encryption type, Internet Protocol (IP) address, successful connection to a router, and / or start connecting to a server, etc.

[0083] In some embodiments, the above-mentioned network configuration method for smart devices may also include: when the smart home device network is interrupted or restarted, storing the current network configuration progress, and sending the current network configuration progress to the terminal device so that the terminal device displays the current network configuration progress.

[0084] Optionally, the smart home device uses a wireless network interface (such as a Wi-Fi module) and a received network account and password to establish a network connection.

[0085] Step 103: When the network connection is successful, the smart home device is bound to the user account information of the terminal device that has logged in.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, it can be determined whether the network connection is successful based on the connection duration and the preset time period of the network connection using the network account and the network password.

[0087] In some embodiments, the network configuration method of the above-mentioned smart device may also include: determining the connection time of the smart home device in connecting to the network using the network account and network password; when the connection time is less than or equal to the preset time period, determining that the network connection is successful; when the connection time is greater than the preset time period, determining that the network connection fails.

[0088] For example, the preset time period may be 10 seconds. When the smart home device obtains the network account and network password, if the network connection is not completed within 10 seconds, it can be determined that the network connection of the smart home device has timed out and the network connection has failed. In this way, by setting a preset time to determine whether the network connection of the smart home device has timed out, it is possible to avoid waiting too long for the network connection.

[0089] In the embodiment of the present application, binding the smart home device with the user account information of the terminal device that has logged in may be to establish an association relationship between the smart home device and the user account information.

[0090] To sum up, the network configuration method of the smart device in the embodiment of the present application is that if the network is interrupted, the smart home device will automatically obtain the network account, network password and user account information of the terminal device that has logged in after reconnecting to the network, automatically enter the network configuration state, and automatically complete the binding of the device and the user account after the network configuration is successful, thereby realizing an automated device configuration process without the need for manual operation by the user, and realizing the automation of network configuration. Even if the device is disconnected from the network or restarted in the middle, the network configuration process can still be successfully completed.

[0091] Figure 3 is a flowchart of the specific steps of a network configuration method for a smart device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The network configuration method for the smart device is applied to smart home devices, such as Figure 3 As shown, the method may include:

[0092] Step 201: Obtain the network account, network password and user account information of the terminal device that has logged in.

[0093] The method of this step has been described in the aforementioned step 101 and will not be repeated here.

[0094] Optionally, step 201 includes:

[0095] Sub-step 2011, reading the pre-stored network account, network password and user account information of the terminal device logged in;

[0096] Sub-step 2012: receiving the network account number, network password and user account information of the terminal device that has logged in sent by the terminal device.

[0097] It should be noted that there is an “or” relationship between sub-step 2011 and sub-step 2012.

[0098] In the embodiment of the present application, the network account, network password and user account information of the terminal device that has logged in sent by the terminal device are input by the user through the APP on the terminal device.

[0099] In a possible implementation, before sub-step 2011, the network configuration method of the above-mentioned smart device may also include: storing the network account, network password and logged-in user account information when receiving the network account, network password and logged-in user account information sent by the terminal device.

[0100] In one possible implementation, after sub-step 2012, the network configuration method of the above-mentioned smart device may further include: when the App of the terminal device exits during the network configuration process, the smart home device continues to complete the network configuration operation according to the network account, network password and the user account information of the terminal device that has logged in.

[0101] In some embodiments, the network configuration method of the smart device further includes:

[0102] Sub-step A1: When the smart home device network is interrupted or restarted, store the current network configuration progress;

[0103] Sub-step A2: sending the current network configuration progress to the terminal device so that the terminal device displays the current network configuration progress.

[0104] In an embodiment of the present application, the smart home device can store the current network configuration and wait to continue the network configuration operation after reconnecting to the network.

[0105] Exemplarily, a pop-up box is displayed on the display interface of the terminal device, and the current network configuration progress is displayed in a pop-up box.

[0106] Step 202: Search for a router corresponding to the network account according to the network account.

[0107] Exemplarily, step 202 may include: determining the wireless network name according to the network account, and searching for a wireless router corresponding to the wireless network name.

[0108] Step 203: When a router is found, a network connection is established with the router using the network password according to the current network configuration progress.

[0109] It can be understood that when a router is searched, the current network configuration node is determined according to the current network configuration progress, and the router is connected through the network password, and then the subsequent network configuration operations are completed through the network services provided by the router. For example, when the current network configuration node corresponding to the current network configuration progress is the start of connecting to the server, the smart home device establishes a network communication connection with the server.

[0110] Optionally, the current network configuration progress may include any one of the network configuration nodes of starting to connect to a router, successfully connecting to a router, and successfully connecting to a server.

[0111] In some embodiments, when the current network configuration progress is to start connecting to a router, before step 203, the network configuration method of the smart device may further include: sending a network configuration request to the router according to short-range wireless communication, and establishing a short-range wireless communication channel with the router according to the communication request. Correspondingly, after step 203, the network configuration method of the smart device may further include: sending device information such as device identification, device model, device specifications, and performance parameters to the router.

[0112] Step 204: Upload the device information of the smart home device and the user account information of the terminal device that has logged in to the server.

[0113] In an embodiment of the present application, the server binds the smart home device to the user account information of the terminal device that has logged in, and stores the association relationship between the smart home device and the user account information.

[0114] The method of this step has been described in the aforementioned step 103 and will not be repeated here.

[0115] Step 205: Receive the binding status of the user account information returned by the server.

[0116] In an embodiment of the present application, after binding the smart home device with the user account information of the terminal device that has logged in and storing the association between the smart home device and the user account information, the server sends the binding status of the user account information to the smart home device.

[0117] Step 206: Encrypt the binding status of the user account information and the network configuration status of the smart home device and send them to the terminal device.

[0118] In an embodiment of the present application, the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol may be used to encrypt the binding status of the user account information and the network configuration status of the smart home device.

[0119] Exemplarily, the binding status may be whether the smart home device is successfully bound, and the network configuration status may be whether the network connection of the smart home device is successful, the network speed, etc.

[0120] In some embodiments, the binding status of the user account information and the network configuration status of the smart home device may also be sent from the server to the terminal device.

[0121] To sum up, in the network configuration method of the smart device in the embodiment of the present application, the user only needs to send the network and account information through the App, and the device can automatically complete the network configuration and binding operations, which simplifies the user operation steps; even if the App is exited or the device is restarted, the network configuration information can still be retained, ensuring that the network configuration process is not interrupted, thereby improving the stability of the network configuration process.

[0122] Figure 4 is a flowchart of another method for configuring a network for an intelligent device provided in an embodiment of the present application, and the application Figure 1 Terminal devices in Figure 4 As shown, the method may include:

[0123] Step 301: Establish a network connection with a smart home device.

[0124] Optionally, step 301 includes:

[0125] Sub-step 3011, searching for smart home devices in pairing mode within a preset range of the terminal device;

[0126] Sub-step 3012: If there is a smart home device in pairing mode, establish a network connection with the smart home device in pairing mode.

[0127] Exemplarily, the preset range may be around 10 meters.

[0128] Step 302: When a network connection is established with the smart home device, the network account, network password and logged-in user account information are sent to the smart home device.

[0129] In an embodiment of the present application, the smart home device uses the network account and network password to connect to the network according to the current network configuration progress. When the network connection is successful, the smart home device is bound to the user account information of the terminal device that has logged in.

[0130] Optionally, step 302 may include: the terminal device receives the Wi-Fi SSID, password and user account information input by the user through the App; in response to the user clicking the "Start Network Configuration" button, the Wi-Fi SSID, password and user account information are encrypted and sent to the Wi-Fi module in the smart home device. For example, the encryption method of the Wi-Fi SSID, password and user account information can adopt the Counter mode with the encryption algorithm of the Galois message authentication code (GMAC) message authentication code.

[0131] It should be noted that the terminal device can exit the APP after step 302. That is, when the terminal device's App exits during the network configuration process, the Wi-Fi module of the smart home device will continue to complete the network configuration operation.

[0132] In some embodiments, the network configuration method of the smart device further includes:

[0133] Sub-step 303: receiving the binding status of the user account information and the network configuration status of the smart home device returned by the smart home device;

[0134] Sub-step 304: displaying the binding status and network configuration status in the display interface of the application.

[0135] In some embodiments, the network configuration method of the smart device further includes: receiving the current network configuration progress sent by the smart home device or the server, and displaying the current network configuration progress in the display interface of the application. Optionally, when the current network configuration progress continues to grow, the display interface of the application is periodically updated so that the network configuration progress in the display interface of the application changes dynamically.

[0136] To sum up, in the network configuration method of the smart device in the embodiment of the present application, exiting the App of the terminal device will not cause the loss of network configuration information or interruption of the binding process, thereby realizing the automation of network configuration and improving user experience.

[0137] Figure 5 is a flowchart of another method for configuring a network for an intelligent device provided in an embodiment of the present application, and the application Figure 1 The system architecture in Figure 5 As shown, the method may include:
