Original Abstract Submitted
A method of operating an IoT device comprising receiving a device change request from an IoT server. The method includes releasing a connection between an Internet-of-things (IoT) device and a first device based on receiving the device change request, switching an operation of the IoT device to a pairing mode to establish a wireless communication link, based on the releasing of the connection between the IoT device and the first device. The method includes establishing a wireless communication link between the IoT device and a second device while the IoT device is in the pairing mode. The method includes identifying whether the second device is associated with the device change request, and receiving information about an access point (AP) connecting the second device and the IoT server from the second device based on the second device being identified as being associated with the device change request.
