The pace of smart home products is gradually accelerating, smart home is on the eve of explosive growth, and the market demand for wireless modules will also show explosive growth. The application requirements for IoT WiFi modules are also changing. IoT smart home solutions based on WiFi modules basically support both home and remote control modes. Remote control mainly relies on the cloud, so the problem is, in the case of home , How is the WiFi in the smart home product/device connected to the WiFi of the home router?
WiFi Module Smart Home Application
There are two ways, namely APP connection (Smart Link smart home mode) and AT command set. In this article, SKYLAB takes Smart Link as the entry point and explains in detail the IoT smart application of WiFi module Smart Link.
Smart Link to find out
Smart Link is a technology of intelligent networking function, a way to connect the WiFi module to the wireless router. It is to use the broadcast packet to encrypt the SSID and password, and then send it through the broadcast packet.
At the application layer, the UDP protocol can send broadcast packets, so the APP or PC program sends a UDP data packet, puts the SSID and password in the packet, and then the smart socket receives the packet, parses the packet, and obtains the SSID and password. You can configure yourself and connect to the router.

The IoT WiFi module integrates Smart Link, so that when the smart socket is installed for the first time, turn on the power to keep the smart socket connected, then enter the WiFi password in the APP, and finally the smart socket is connected to WiFi.
The specific operation process is:
1. Connect the mobile phone to the wireless router;
2. Press the button to let the WIFI module of the device enter the Smart Link configuration state;
3. Open the APP and enter the wireless router password to configure;
4. The device is connected to the wireless router.
It should be noted here that the router must be the same router, that is to say, the wifi password can be configured only in the local area network.
The above are the IoT smart applications based on the WiFi module Smart Link. For more connected applications based on the WiFi module, you can directly visit the SKYLAB official website or Alibaba store.
