Abstract
The present disclosure provides a network connection configuration method and an apparatus thereof. The method includes sending out first network identification information without a corresponding encryption key and second network identification information with a corresponding encryption key, such that a first terminal device receives the first network identification information and the second network identification information; during a state of sending out the first and second network identification information, monitoring whether a request is received to establish the keyless communication connection based on the first network identification information; when the request is received to establish the keyless communication connection based on the first network identification information, establishing the keyless communication connection with the first terminal device; obtaining wireless network information sent by the first terminal device based on the keyless communication connection; and establishing a communication connection with a wireless network device based on the wireless network information.
