Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a network device, a method executed by the network device, and a computer-readable medium. Some aspects of the present disclosure relate to a first network device, including a memory, on which instructions are stored, and a processor configured to execute the instructions stored on the memory to cause the first network device to execute the following operations: executing channel scanning on a main working channel of a second network device coupled to the first network device to detect a beacon frame broadcast by the second network device; determining whether a beacon frame broadcast by the second network device is detected within a first predetermined time duration; and at least partially in response to the determination that no beacon frame broadcast by the second network device has been detected within the first predetermined time duration, causing the second network device to automatically restart its Wi-Fi module.
