Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods and devices for enabling access of an unconfigured device to a network hotspot device. The network hotspot device creates a first hotspot and a second hotspot. The method can include: in response to first access information of the first hotspot having been updated, disabling, by the network hotspot device, a connection between the first hotspot of the network hotspot device and the unconfigured device that has accessed the network hotspot device through the first hotspot; and in response to the unconfigured device accessing the second hotspot, sending, by the network hotspot device, the updated first access information to the unconfigured device through the second hotspot, wherein the unconfigured device is configured to access the first hotspot using the updated first access information.
