Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The subject matter of the present disclosure relates generally to automatic selection of a language for a graphical user interface (GUI) of an electronic device.

BACKGROUND

Wireless networks for providing services to client devices or end devices via a modem or gateway device are prevalent in many homes and businesses. Additionally, there can be several modems or gateway devices deployed in the home or business to enhance quality of service (QoS) in the network.

The modem/gateway device may feature a GUI displaying graphical elements such as icons, cursors, and windows to a user so as to facilitate interaction of the user with the modem/gateway device. A GUI may be accessible via a web browser and may support multiple languages (such as English or German).

Typically, a default language for the GUI may be preprogrammed into the modem/gateway device based on the customer index in firmware of the modem/gateway device. For example, a modem/gateway device to be deployed in Europe may have English (EN) preselected as the default language for the GUI of the modem/gateway device. However, if the customer conducts business in different countries using different languages, then a non-preferred or possibly even unintelligible language may be selected.

Further existing solutions require the user to manually reconfigure the GUI so as to feature another language that is preferred over the default language. The user must therefore find the login GUI, find the appropriate controller, and then manually change the language setting. However, this is burdensome due to the number of steps required and also because the user may not be able to understand how to reconfigure the GUI if the user is not fluent in the default language.

Thus, it would be advantageous and an improvement over existing solutions to provide an electronic device, a method, and a program for automatically selecting a language setting for a GUI of the electronic device.

SUMMARY

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an electronic device with automatic selection of a language for a GUI of the electronic device.

The default operational parameters may include a current language setting for the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100 and a current Wi-Fi country code as part of firmware of the modem/gateway device 100. The current Wi-Fi country code is a string which identifies the country in which the modem/gateway device 100 is to operate (e.g., .cc=“US”). In general, only Wi-Fi enabled devices have Wi-Fi country codes. A manufacturer may reprogram the current Wi-Fi country code per a request from an ISP as a part of region customization for each country a modem/gateway device is deployed to. In some implementations, the ISP may reconfigure the current Wi-Fi country code after manufacturing as desired. A table of reference Wi-Fi country codes associated with GUI languages which may be stored in the memory 105. Each reference Wi-Fi country code may be associated with one or more of the GUI languages. Furthermore, each reference Wi-Fi country code may be associated with one or more countries. Some GUI languages may be unsupported (i.e., the device 100 may be incapable of displaying the GUI in the GUI language associated with the reference Wi-Fi country code). The controller 107 can read the current Wi-Fi country code from the configuration file, refer to the table to obtain the GUI language which is associated with the reference Wi-Fi country code corresponding to the current Wi-Fi country code and automatically select a language setting for a GUI of the electronic device based on the GUI language obtained from the table.

The GUI of the modem/gateway device 100 may present a series of menus, tasks, or windows so as to enable the user to change settings or operational parameters of the modem/gateway device 100. The settings or operational parameters may relate to language, broadband, WAN, LAN, routing, remote management, blocking, filtering, security, etc. For example, a user may access the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100 by opening a web browser on the client device 200 and entering a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) or an Internet Protocol (IP) address assigned to the modem/gateway device 100.

FIG. 3 illustrates an exemplary method and algorithm for automatic selection of a language for a GUI of the modem/gateway device 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. It is assumed that the modem/gateway device 100 and the client device 200 include their respective software 106, 207 in their respective memories 105, 206. In FIG. 3, the method and algorithm illustrate operations performed by processors running the software 106 of the modem/gateway device 100 and the software 207 of the client device 200 for automatic selection of a language for a GUI of the modem/gateway device 100. The software 106, 207 in the respective memories 105, 206 can be for implementing, for example, a procedure between the modem/gateway device 100 and the client device 200 for automatic selection of a language for a GUI of the modem/gateway device 100.

In Step S1, the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100 is accessed by a user.

In Step S2, the current Wi-Fi country code of the modem/gateway device 100 is determined. For example, a batch script may be run to read the current Wi-Fi country code out of a configuration file in the registry of the modem/gateway device 100.

In Step S3, it is determined if the current Wi-Fi country code is specific (i.e., corresponds to only one country (e.g., “US”)) or generic (i.e., corresponds to more than one country (e.g., “EU”)). For example, a batch script may be run to compare the current Wi-Fi country code to the table of reference Wi-Fi country codes to determine how many countries correspond to the current Wi-Fi country code. If the current Wi-Fi country code is specific, the process proceeds to Step S4. If the current Wi-Fi country code is generic, the process proceeds to Step S7.

In Step S4, the GUI language associated with the reference Wi-Fi country code corresponding to the current Wi-Fi country code is determined. In other words, the GUI language associated with the reference Wi-Fi country code corresponding to the current Wi-Fi country code is obtained from the table. For example, German corresponds to “DE” and English corresponds to “US”, “CA”, “AU” or “GB”, etc.

In Step S5, it is determined if the GUI language obtained from the table is supported by the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100. In other words, it is determined if the modem/gateway device 100 is capable of displaying the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100 in the GUI language obtained from the table. For example, the table may include a field indicating whether each GUI language is supported. If the GUI language obtained from the table is supported, the process proceeds to Step S6. If the GUI language obtained from the table is unsupported, the process proceeds to Step S7.

In Step S6, a configuration file stored in the memory 105 is modified so as to automatically select a language setting for a GUI of the modem/gateway device 100 that matches the GUI language obtained from the table and the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100 is displayed in the GUI language obtained from the table.

In Step S7, a configuration file stored in the memory 105 is modified so as to automatically select English as the language setting for the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100 and the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100 is displayed in English. For example, if the current Wi-Fi country code is generic (e.g., “EU”), English may be automatically selected as the language setting for the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100. As another example, if the current Wi-Fi country code is “FR” and French is unsupported, English may be automatically selected as the language setting for the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100. Alternatively, if the GUI language (which is associated with the reference Wi-Fi country code corresponding to the current Wi-Fi country code) is unsupported, a closest supported GUI language may be automatically selected as the language setting for the GUI of the modem/gateway device 100.

The present disclosure may be implemented as any combination of an apparatus, a system, an integrated circuit, and a computer program on a non-transitory computer readable recording medium. The one or more processors may be implemented as an integrated circuit (IC), an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), or large scale integrated circuit (LSI), system LSI, super LSI, or ultra LSI components that perform a part or all of the functions described in the present disclosure.
