A method and system for generating an automated Internet connection is provided. The method includes receiving from a first communication hardware device of a first user, a first telephone number and a first Internet protocol (IP) address. A second telephone number and a second Internet protocol (IP) address are received from a second communication hardware device of a second user. A request for connecting the first communication hardware device to the second communication hardware device via an Internet connection is received and it is determined that the second communication hardware device is currently connected the first communication hardware device. The request is transmitted to the second communication hardware device. Based on the second user approving the request, the second IP address is automatically transmitted to the first communication device and a secure private Internet link between the first communication hardware device and the second communication hardware device is generated.

Independent internet connection generation

Aspects provide an authentication mechanism wherein processors are configured to extract encoded identification indicia of a cellular service base station from authentication credentials received from a mobile cellular device for access to a secure networked resource on a network device connection. The identification indicia uniquely identify the base station relative to other, different base stations. Configured processors grants access by the mobile device to the secure networked resource in response to determining that the mobile device is currently using the identified base station for cellular services to transmit the authentication credentials; and deny access by the mobile device to the secure networked resource in response to determining that the mobile device is currently using another base station for cellular services to transmit the authentication credentials.

Authentication mechanism

A method for enabling a first terminal to access a wireless network, includes: receiving an access request sent from the first terminal, the access request including a terminal identification of the first terminal; determining whether the first terminal meets a condition based on the terminal identification included in the access request; sending a connection invitation to the first terminal if it is determined that the first terminal meets the condition; receiving a connection request sent from the first terminal based on the connection invitation; and enabling the first terminal to access the wireless network based on the connection request.

The present disclosure provides a method which includes: generating an application list according to applications running in an operating system; traversing the identifiers in the application list; determining whether an application corresponding to a currently traversed identifier is a background application; determining whether a predetermined white list comprises the currently traversed identifier and whether the number of identifiers corresponding to background applications in the application list is greater than a predetermined threshold, if the application corresponding to the currently traversed identifier is a background application; selecting an identifier corresponding to a background application from the application list and closing the background application corresponding to the selected identifier, if the predetermined white list comprises the currently traversed identifier and the number is greater than the predetermined threshold; or closing the application corresponding to the currently traversed identifier if the predetermined white list does not comprise the currently traversed identifier and the number is greater than the predetermined threshold.

Method and terminal device for controlling background application

A method for a device to enlarge a displayed font, includes: receiving an instruction for enlarging a currently displayed font; acquiring a size of the currently displayed font; when the size of the currently displayed font is smaller than a preset maximum threshold, enlarging the currently displayed font based on a curve enlargement rule with a first enlargement coefficient configured by an operating system of the device and a second enlargement coefficient configured by a current application; when the size of the currently displayed font is larger than or equal to the preset maximum threshold, enlarging the currently displayed font based on a linear enlargement rule with a third enlargement coefficient configured by the operating system; and displaying the enlarged font.

Method and device for enlarging displayed font

A middle layer network protocol enhancement, virtual connectivity (VC) makes the network attachment point changes of local and remote peers transparent to applications that use network services. A virtual connectivity module local to each peer translates communication connection parameters from apparent to real and vice versa, as well as sending and receiving secure connection updates directly to and from peers. Unlike Mobile IP, no routing infrastructure modifications are required. A subscribe-notify service provides connection update notifications when direct peer-to-peer connection updates are not possible, for example, when two communicating peers move simultaneously or when the moving peer is communicating with a peer behind network address translation (NAT). Methods for detecting these conditions are disclosed, as is a virtual connectivity protocol and virtual connectivity module architecture.
