A wireless device is a device in a first communication system that uses a first band. A communication interface performs communication by using the first band; A monitoring interface monitors a situation of use of a second band for use by the communication interface and different from the first band, the second band being used in a second communication system different from the first communication system that uses the first band. A controllerchanges a setting for communication in the communication interface when the situation of use monitored by the monitoring interface changes from non-use to use.
