The present application aims to provide a method and device for managing a wireless access point (AP), so as to address the problem of the difficulty in identifying the actual owner of the wireless AP when multiple users share the password of the wireless AP. In particular, in the technical solution provided by the present application, wireless AP-related first authentication information of a first user is acquired, and then owner information of a wireless AP can be automatically determined according to ownership related information of the wireless AP and the first authentication information, thereby conveniently and efficiently determining an owner of the wireless AP. Furthermore, the owner information can be more accurately determined by reasonably configuring a priority level of the authentication information, so as to assign the ownership of the wireless AP to the actual owner.
