A portable electronic device includes a transmission interface, a wireless communication circuit and microprocessor. The wireless communication circuit connects to a cloud server through the Internet. The microprocessor obtains firmware-version information and device-setting information of an electronic device through the transmission interface, and controls the wireless communication circuit to send the firmware-version information and the device-setting information to the cloud server. When the cloud server determines that the firmware version of the electronic device is not the latest firmware version according to the firmware-version information or determines that a device setting of the electronic device is not the latest device setting according to the device-setting information, the portable electronic device fetches the latest firmware information message and the latest device setting message from the cloud server, and transmits the latest firmware information message and the latest device setting message to the electronic device.

Portable electronic device and data updating method

A wireless network connection method for an electronic device is provided, in which a first signal is transmitted to additional electronic device and is utilized to identify the electronic device. When the additional electronic device identifies the electronic device through the first signal, it establishes wireless communication between the electronic device and the additional electronic device. A second signal is transmitted to the additional electronic device. The second signal is an audio signal to instruct the additional electronic device to maintain the wireless communication.

Electronic device and its wireless network connection method

A method, a system and an electronic apparatus for searching nearby apparatuses are proposed. The method includes: searching at least one first apparatus belonging to a first subnet which the electronic apparatus belongs to, and accordingly generating a first list; scanning at least one access point (AP) near the electronic apparatus, and accordingly generating a first AP list; uploading the first AP list to a server, and receiving a second list from the server, where the second list includes at least one second apparatus, and a similarity between a second AP list of each second apparatus and the first AP list is higher than a predetermined threshold; and uniting the first list and the second list to generate a pairing list including at least one apparatus to be paired.
