Abstract  Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for processing network selection information for a user terminal in wireless local area network (WLAN). When a WLAN user terminal accesses a wireless communications network via a WLAN access network (WLAN AN), the WLAN user terminal sends to the WLAN AN an authentication signal carrying network selection information. This network selection information of the user terminal may be placed in a user identity field defined in the format of a network access identifier (NAI). This invention enables the user terminal to select an appropriate wireless communication network to access when attempting to access a network via a WLAN connecting a plurality of wireless communication networks.
