Abstract
A method for controlling a wireless access point includes detecting that a control event relating to a smart device is triggered, acquiring a service set identifier (SSID) corresponding to the control event, generating a Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi) broadcast message according to the SSID corresponding to the control event, and broadcasting the Wi-Fi broadcast message, such that the smart device enables the wireless access point according to the Wi-Fi broadcast message.
