Wireless network system and wireless communication method for switching a wireless network mode

1. A wireless network system comprising:

an access point for relaying communications in a wireless network mode;

a user device; and

a client for communicating with the wireless network mode through the access point, wherein:

the user device comprises:

a storage section which stores network information for setting the wireless network mode, wherein the network information comprises a first network name and an encryption key; and

a first hardware processor that is configured to:

automatically monitor and detect a second network name from the client for setting the wireless network in a second mode while the user device is connecting in the wireless network in the first mode through the access point;

switch a wireless network mode of the user device from the first mode to the second mode for communicating with the client when the first hardware processor has detected the second network name, and

transmit the network information to the client,

the client comprises:

a network information storage section which stores the second network name to start the wireless network in the second mode; and

a second hardware processor that is configured to:

send out the second network name when the client is operated in a specific manner by a user to start the wireless network in the second mode; and

switch a wireless network mode of the client from the second mode to the first mode based on the network information upon reception of the network information from the user device through the wireless network in the second mode; and

wherein the first mode is an infrastructure mode and the second mode is an AdHoc mode.

2. The wireless network system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the client is an audio player which acquires music data through the wireless network, and the user device is a commander which controls the audio player through the wireless network.

3. A wireless communication method performed in a wireless network system including a user device, a client and an access point, the user device and the client performing a wireless network communication through the access point, the wireless communication method comprising:

sending out, by the client, a first network name for setting the wireless network in a first mode when the client is operated in a specific manner by a user to start a wireless network mode of the client in the first mode;

automatically monitoring and detecting, by the user device, the first network name while the user device is connecting in the wireless network in a second mode through the access point;

upon detecting, by the user device, the first network name:

switching, by the user device, a wireless network mode of the user device from the second mode to the first mode for communicating with the client; and

transmitting, by the user device to the client, network information for setting the wireless network communication in the second mode, wherein the network information comprises a second network name and an encryption key, and

switching, by the client, the wireless network mode of the client from the first mode to the second mode based on the network information upon reception of the network information from the user device through the wireless network in the first mode; and

wherein the first mode is an AdHoc mode and the second mode is an infrastructure mode.
