Connection method and terminal equipment

The invention provides a connection method and terminal equipment, and the connection method is applied to the terminal equipment, and comprises the steps: scanning equipment located in the same local area network as the terminal equipment, and obtaining a local area network equipment list; under the condition that the local area network equipment list comprises target cloud disk equipment, establishing connection with the target cloud disk equipment through the local area network; and under the condition that the local area network equipment list does not comprise the target cloud disk equipment, establishing connection with a target relay server, wherein the target relay server is the relay server which establishes connection with the target cloud disk equipment. As the terminal equipment is connected with the target relay server only when the terminal equipment and the target cloud disk equipment are not located in the same local area network, and the terminal equipment and the target cloud disk equipment
