Abstract: A method for associating a Wi-Fi station with a Wi-Fi access point through a first Wi-Fi network advertised by the access point. The method is implemented by the station and includes: setting up an association (of the station with the access point through a second Wi-Fi network not advertised by the access point; transmitting security information to the access point, through the second network; and setting up an association of the station with the access point through the first network, depending on the security information.

Abstract: A method for switching a connection of a mobile Wi-Fi station from a first access point of a plurality of Wi-Fi access points to a second access point of the plurality. The method includes: establishing a logic link between the station and a carrier of the station, on the basis of a comparison between a first position of the carrier and at least one value in relation to a signal transmitted by the station; performing a switching decision on the basis of a second position of the carrier.

Abstract: A method for managing switching of a terminal between a plurality of physical access points to a Wi-Fi network, a virtual access point identifier dedicated to the terminal being assigned by a controller to a first physical access point, the terminal associating with the first physical access point by a first connection using the virtual access point identifier. The method includes at the first access point: transmitting, from the first physical access point to the controller, information relating to the capabilities of the terminal, receiving an order to switch from the first connection to a second connection established between the terminal and a second physical access point of the plurality using the same virtual access point identifier, the first and the second connections being adapted to the capabilities of the terminal.

Abstract: A method includes the following steps implemented by a physical Wi-Fi access point to which a first virtual Wi-Fi access point identified by a first BSSID identifier is assigned: receiving a message including the first BSSID identifier; repeated transmission of beacon messages including the first BSSID identifier; associating a Wi-Fi station with the physical Wi-Fi access point based on the first BSSID identifier; and stopping the repeated transmission of the beacon messages comprising the first BSSID identifier.
