FIELD: information technology. ^ SUBSTANCE: method of controlling a wireless terminal operating in a sleep cycle, alternating between an on mode and a sleep mode, involves establishing a connection with a first wireless network during a first switch-on period having a first duration, and with a second wireless network in a second switch-on period after the first switch-on period. The second switch-on period extends to the second duration greater than the first duration, when it is detected that the second wireless network is different from the first wireless network. Network information regarding the second wireless network is received during the second switch-on period. ^ EFFECT: possibility of receiving network information by extending the switch-on period of the terminal. ^ 12 cl, 2 dwg |
