Electronic device and method for managing network bandwidth distribution

摘要

An electronic device is connected to a network, and includes a storage unit, the storage unit stores a speed of data transmission required by the electronic device when the electronic device is displaying a video from the network. A method for managing network bandwidth distribution of an electronic device includes the following steps. Detecting a speed of data transmission the network provided to the video displayed by the electronic device. Comparing the detected speed with the stored speed. If the detected speed is greater than the stored speed, decreasing a network bandwidth provided to the video. If the detected speed is less than the stored speed, controlling the running application of the electronic device which occupies the network bandwidth to stop running.

主权项

1. An electronic device connected to a network, the electronic device comprising:
a storage unit storing a speed of data transmission required by the electronic device when the electronic device is displaying a video from the network, and further including a plurality of modules; and
a processor to execute the plurality of modules,wherein the plurality of modules comprises:
a detecting module to detect whether the electronic device is displaying a video from the network, and detect a speed of data transmission the network provided to the video displayed by the electronic device;a comparing module to compare the detected speed with the stored speed; anda distributing module to decrease a network bandwidth provided to the video displayed by the electronic device if the detected speed is greater than the stored speed, to allow the network to provide greater network bandwidth to other running applications of the electronic device or other electronic devices connected to the network;and further control at least one of the other running applications which occupies the network bandwidth to stop running if the detected speed is less than the stored speed.
