Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a network connection method, a hotspot terminal, and a management terminal. A hotspot terminal receives an Internet access request sent by a mobile terminal. The hotspot terminal sends an input request to the mobile terminal according to the received Internet access request. The hotspot terminal receives user identity information sent by the mobile terminal. The hotspot terminal receives a permission confirmation instruction that is entered by an administrator according to the user identity information. The hotspot terminal determines Internet access permission of the mobile terminal according to the received permission confirmation instruction. According to the network connection method provided in the embodiments of the present invention, a problem that a process in which a mobile terminal logs in to a remote network by using a hotspot terminal is tedious and complex is resolved.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A network connection method comprising:
 receiving, by a hotspot terminal, user identity information sent by a mobile terminal for accessing a wireless local area network (WLAN) of the hotspot terminal, wherein the user identity information is used to identify a user who uses the mobile terminal;   displaying, by the hotspot terminal, an interface on a touchscreen of the hotspot terminal, wherein the interface comprises the user identity information;   receiving, by the hotspot terminal, a permission confirmation instruction that is entered by an administrator according to the user identity information by operating the touchscreen of the hotspot terminal; and   determining, by the hotspot terminal, Internet access permission of the mobile terminal for accessing the WLAN of the hotspot terminal, according to the received permission confirmation instruction without requiring a password from the mobile terminal.   
     
     
         2 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the user identity information comprises a user name of a user of the mobile terminal. 
     
     
         3 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the user identity information comprises a user nickname of a user of the mobile terminal. 
     
     
         4 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the user identity information comprises a phone number of the mobile terminal. 
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the user identity information comprises a piece of specific text. 
     
     
         6 . The method according to  claim 5 , wherein the user identity information further comprises a user nickname of a user of the mobile terminal. 
     
     
         7 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the user identity information comprises permission application information. 
     
     
         8 . The method according to  claim 1 , after determining the Internet access permission of the mobile terminal, the method further comprises setting, by the hotspot terminal and according to a preset Internet access condition, an Internet access limitation of accessing the WLAN by the mobile terminal. 
     
     
         9 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises sending, by the hotspot terminal, reminder information to the mobile terminal, wherein the reminder information is used to inform whether the Internet access request of the mobile terminal is approved. 
     
     
         10 . The method according to  claim 1 , wherein the hotspot terminal is one of a wireless router, a portable router, a wireless modem, a mobile phone, a personal computer (PC), a tablet computer, or a digital camera. 
     
     
         11 . A hotspot terminal comprising:
 a non-transitory computer readable medium which contains computer-executable instructions; and   a processor configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to enable the hotspot terminal to perform operations comprising:
 receiving user identity information sent by a mobile terminal for accessing a wireless local area network (WLAN) of the hotspot terminal, wherein the user identity information is used to identify a user who uses the mobile terminal; 
 displaying an interface on a touchscreen of the hotspot terminal, wherein the interface comprises the user identity information; 
 receiving a permission confirmation instruction that is entered by an administrator according to the user identity information by operating the touchscreen of the hotspot terminal; and 
 determining Internet access permission of the mobile terminal for accessing the WLAN of the hotspot terminal, according to the received permission confirmation instruction without requiring a password from the mobile terminal. 
   
     
     
         12 . The hotspot terminal according to  claim 11 , wherein the user identity information comprises a user name of a user of the mobile terminal. 
     
     
         13 . The hotspot terminal according to  claim 11 , wherein the user identity information comprises a user nickname of a user of the mobile terminal. 
     
     
         14 . The hotspot terminal according to  claim 11 , wherein the user identity information comprises a phone number of the mobile terminal. 
     
     
         15 . The hotspot terminal according to  claim 11 , wherein the user identity information comprises a piece of specific text. 
     
     
         16 . The hotspot terminal according to  claim 15 , wherein the user identity information further comprises a user nickname of a user of the mobile terminal. 
     
     
         17 . The hotspot terminal according to  claim 11 , wherein the user identity information comprises permission application information. 
     
     
         18 . The hotspot terminal according to  claim 11 , wherein after determining the Internet access permission of the mobile terminal, the processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to enable the hotspot terminal to perform an operation comprising setting, according to a preset Internet access condition, an Internet access limitation of accessing the WLAN by the mobile terminal. 
     
     
         19 . The hotspot terminal according to  claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to enable the hotspot terminal to perform an operation comprising sending reminder information to the mobile terminal, wherein the reminder information is used to inform whether the Internet access request of the mobile terminal is approved. 
     
     
         20 . A network system comprising:
 a mobile terminal configured to send user identity information to a hotspot terminal, wherein the user identity information is used to identify a user who uses the mobile terminal;   a hotspot terminal configured to:
 receive the user identity information sent by the mobile terminal for accessing a wireless local area network (WLAN) of the hotspot terminal; 
 display an interface on a touchscreen of the hotspot terminal, wherein the interface comprises the user identity information; 
 receiving a permission confirmation instruction that is entered by an administrator according to the user identity information by operating the touchscreen of the hotspot terminal; and
