Abstract:
An information processing apparatus executes, by a predetermined program, an instruction to an OS for connecting with a communication apparatus that has enabled a predetermined access point which includes identification information including both a specific character string and a character string other than the specific character string, and communicates, in a case in which a connection between the information processing apparatus and the communication apparatus that has enabled the predetermined access point is established by the instruction executed by designating a specific character string on the OS, by the predetermined program, information related to a different access point from the predetermined access point and is positioned outside the information processing apparatus and the communication apparatus. The information related to the different access point is communicated via the connection between the information processing apparatus and the communication apparatus that has enabled the predetermined access point.
