The storage device is configured to store Service Set Identifiers (SSIDs), location information, and Media Access Control (MAC) addresses of a plurality of Access Points (APs). The controller is configured to determine a group of APs among the APs, whose MAC addresses are within a MAC address block, determine a first number of the group of APs whose SSIDs match one or more of a plurality of predetermined naming patterns or whose location information indicates a location change across a predetermined distance, determine whether a ratio of the first number to a total number of the group of APs exceeds a predetermined threshold, and classify the APs in the group as mobile APs when the ratio exceeds the predetermined threshold.
