Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a method, a device, an extender, and a computer medium for automatically restoring connections. In this method, a wireless extender records the number of packets received from an access point within a first predetermined time; the wireless extender compares the recorded number with a predetermined threshold; and in response to determining that the recorded number is smaller than the predetermined threshold, the wireless extender restarts a WiFi module used for WiFi communication in the wireless extender to reestablish a WiFi connection with the access point. By automatically detecting the WiFi connection status and automatically triggering the restart of the WiFi module, it is possible to attempt to restore the WiFi connection without manual intervention, thereby improving the efficiency of network restoration.
