Abstract:
A method and apparatus for automatically generating/changing Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) access information are provided. The apparatus includes an access information management database for storing pre-registered WLAN access information of a plurality of WLAN Access Points (APs). The apparatus also includes an access information collector for collecting information for WLAN APs being accessible at a current position of the apparatus, and an access information analyzer for analyzing the collected information, and creating a list of the accessible WLAN APs. The apparatus further includes a comparator for comparing the list with the WLAN access information to determine if the WLAN APs match. The apparatus additionally includes an access information automatic changer for automatically changing current WLAN access information according to matched APs. The apparatus includes an access information generator for automatically generating new WLAN access information when no WLAN access information is matched with the APs.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for maintaining and utilizing wireless local area network (WLAN) information by an electronic device, the method comprising:\n receiving, by the electronic device, a first signal from a first WLAN access point (AP), wherein the first signal includes first identification information of the first WLAN AP, first security information of the first WLAN AP, and first load information of the first WLAN AP; based at least on analyzing the received first signal, obtaining, by the electronic device, the first identification information of the first WLAN AP and the first security information of the first WLAN AP; determining, by the electronic device, that the electronic device is in a successful connection with the first WLAN AP; based at least on the determining that the electronic device is in a successful connection with the first WLAN AP, automatically adding, by the electronic device, first WLAN information for automatically connecting to the first WLAN AP to a set of WLAN information for automatically connecting to WLAN APs stored in the electronic device, wherein the first WLAN information for automatically connecting to the first WLAN AP is generated by the electronic device based at least on the obtained first identification information; receiving, by the electronic device, a second signal from a second WLAN AP, wherein the second signal includes second identification information of the second WLAN AP, second security information of the second WLAN AP, and second load information of the second WLAN AP; based at least on analyzing the received second signal, obtaining, by the electronic device, the second identification information of the second WLAN AP and the second security information of the second WLAN AP; based at least on the obtained second identification information of the second WLAN AP and the set of WLAN information including the first WLAN information, identifying second WLAN information included in the set of WLAN information including the first WLAN information; and based at least on the identified second WLAN information included in the set of WLAN information including the first WLAN information, automatically connecting to the second WLAN AP by the electronic device, wherein the first identification information of the first WLAN AP includes a first service set identifier (SSID), and wherein the second identification information of the second WLAN AP includes a second SSID.
