A reception unit receives from a wireless relay device, a handover response indicating possibility of degradation in communication quality during wireless communication with the wireless relay device. A search unit searches whether or not a wireless relay device to which handover can be performed is present other than the wireless relay device. When the wireless relay device to which handover can be performed other than the wireless relay device is present as a result of search by the search unit, a transmission unit transmits a handover request to the wireless relay device found by the search unit.
