Patent ID: 11419165

Abstract:
The invention provides a method and system for establishing a connection between a client device of a plurality of client devices and a Wi-Fi access point of a plurality of Wi-Fi access points using a cloud platform. In an embodiment, the cloud platform identifies one or more target Wi-Fi access points and transmits an SSID-password tuple associated with the client device to the one or more target Wi-Fi access points. The one or more target Wi-Fi access points, then, broadcast an SSID of the client device and upon detecting the broadcast, the client device selects a target Wi-Fi access point and transmits a message with a pre-stored SSID-password tuple to the target Wi-Fi access point. Thereafter, the target Wi-Fi access point authorizes the client device to access the target Wi-Fi access point based on a comparison of the pre-stored SSID-password tuple and the SSID-password tuple received from the cloud platform.
