ABSTRACT:
A system for identifying an access point is provided, the system arranged in a mobile station associated with the access point. The system includes a detecting module, a controlling module, a determining module, and an identifying module. The detecting module detects a beacon from the access point. The controlling module controls a connection status between the mobile station and the access point. The determining module determines whether the number of the mobile stations associated with the access point varies with changes in the connection status. The identifying module identifies a status of the access point based on a determination result. A method for identifying an access point is also provided.
