Zusammenfassung:According to one embodiment of the invention, a system, electronic device and method are described for creating, connecting or disconnecting from a mesh network. The method comprises a first operation of detecting a duration of time (or number of press) that a mesh networking button of a wireless device has been actuated. Thereafter, in response to actuation of the mesh networking button up to a first predetermined duration (or presses), a first mesh network is created without additional input of information by a user. Optionally, in response to actuation of the mesh networking button for at least a second predetermined duration, where the second predetermined duration being longer (or different number of presses) in time than the first predetermined duration (or button presses), the electronic device issues a request to join a second mesh network detecting previously by the electronic device.
