Abstract:
A communication device may, in response to a wireless link via the first wireless interface being established with a terminal device while the communication device is a parent station state, receive a predetermined signal from the terminal device via the second wireless interface. If the predetermined signal is received from the terminal device, shifting communication device from the parent station state to a specific state where the communication device does not operate as a parent station. The communication device is maintained in the parent station state if the predetermined signal is not received from the terminal device even if the wireless link via the first wireless interface has been established with the terminal device. After shifting the communication device to the specific state, establishing a first wireless connection via the second wireless interface with the terminal device so as to participate in a second wireless network as a child station.
