Abstract

The present disclosure discloses an access point (AP) connection method, a terminal, and a server, and relates to the field of network technologies. The method includes: scanning a graphic identifier of a target AP, to obtain address information of the target AP, where the address information includes at least an identity of the target AP; acquiring, according to the identity and an operating system identifier of a terminal, target AP connection information prestored in a server; and connecting to the target AP according to the target AP connection information. In the present disclosure, after scanning a graphic identifier of a target AP, a terminal acquires, according to the identity and an operating system identifier of a terminal, target AP connection information prestored in a server; and connects to the target AP according to the target AP connection information, thereby implementing a connection to the target AP according to the graphic identifier of the target AP, which not only is convenient and fast, and time-saving and energy-saving, but also avoids, no matter how complex the access password is, a connection failure due to an excessively complex access password during a connection.
