The present application relates to the technical field of network security. Provided are a wireless network authentication method and a wireless network authentication apparatus. The method comprises: generating a to-be-verified address according to history access information related to a target access point, the to-be-verified address being used for identifying an identity of a client device; and sending an authentication request comprising the to-be-verified address to the target access point. By using the method and the apparatus in the embodiments of the present invention, a client device generates a to-be-verified address by using history access information, and the access point recognizes and verifies a real identity of the corresponding client device according to the history access information, thereby providing a network service to a history access device, and enabling the history access device to implement rapid network access even in a case in which the history access device does not know an access password. |
