RESTORATION OF NETWORK ACCESS

摘要

In the event of loss of connection 4 between an access point 3 and a data network 5, the access point 3 transmits instructions to a data processing device 1 connected to the access point 3 to cause the data processing device 1 to reestablish connection to the network 5 by another means. These instructions cause it to scan for beacon signals from further wireless access points, and establish connection 7, 8 to the data network 5 through a wireless access point 6 identified in the scanning process.
