Abstract

A wireless communication connecting system includes a at least one wireless access point, a wireless electronic device, a position obtaining module, a position determining module, and a controlling module. A rotatable directional antenna is installed in the wireless electronic device. The position obtaining module determines first relative positions between each wireless access point and the wireless electronic device. A position determining module determines angles of relative positions between the directional antenna and each wireless access point according to a position information of the directional antenna and the first relative positions. The controlling module controls the directional antenna to point to the strongest-signal wireless access point. A wireless communication connecting system method is also disclosed.
