Router Mobile Network Switch for Remote Management
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Routers often fail to connect to wideband networks due to configuration issues or other abnormalities, requiring manual intervention through an intranet login for management, which is inconvenient and limited by time and location.
Innovation Solution
A method that switches the router to a mobile network when the wideband network is abnormal, allowing a mobile terminal to receive a failure message and perform remote repairs without the need for intranet login, enabling flexible and location-independent management.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a user logs in to the router's intranet for repair and management, then the router can be managed and repaired, but the operation is limited by time and location and requires local network access
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a mobile terminal as an intermediary device between the user and the router. Instead of directly accessing the router's intranet, the user interacts with the router through the mobile terminal via mobile network. The mobile terminal receives failure messages from the router, transmits repair instructions to the user, and sends user operations back to the router, enabling remote management without requiring local network presence.
2Reliability
If the router uses wideband network for Internet access, then high-speed connectivity is achieved, but the system lacks backup connectivity when the wideband network fails
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the network connection parameter from exclusively wideband to dual-mode (wideband + mobile network). When the wideband network is normal, the router uses it for high-speed Internet access. When the wideband network fails or the router needs remote management, the router switches to using the mobile network for connectivity. This parameter change enables both high-speed connectivity when available and reliable backup/management capability when needed.

AI summary
The present disclosure relates to a router management method, a router and a mobile terminal, and relates to the technical field of routers. The method includes: when it is determined that the currently connected wideband network is abnormal, a switch from the wideband network to the mobile network is performed, the failure message is sent to the bound mobile terminal through the mobile network, and then the mobile terminal performs a repairing operation according to the failure message.
