ABSTRACT:
A method of detecting and solving a network ID conflict is provided. The method of detecting and solving a network ID conflict includes generating and transmitting a personal area network identifier (PAN ID) report command frame that includes an extended PAN ID, and receiving a PAN ID update command frame in response to the transmitted PAN ID report command frame. According to the method, the PAN ID report command and the PAN ID update command are generated and provided by providing an extended PAN ID (EPID), and thus a network ID conflict can be detected and a new PAN ID is provided to solve the network ID conflict.
