Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes plural communication units, a switching unit, and a controller. The plural communication units are configured to conduct a wireless communication at different communication speeds. If a communication is attempted to be started, the switching unit compares a priority of a user who is conducting a communication with a priority of a user who is attempting to start the communication, to switch a communication unit so that the user having a higher priority uses a communication unit having a faster communication speed. The controller is configured to perform a control to start the communication using the communication unit switched by the switching unit.
