Abstract

A communication apparatus has a communication function that can concurrently perform first communication in which communication with a partner apparatus is performed via another apparatus that decides a wireless channel to be used in the wireless communication and second communication in which communication with the partner apparatus is performed not via another apparatus by the communication apparatus deciding the wireless channel. In a state in which the first communication and the second communication are concurrently performed, if a connection for the first communication is to be established while a connection for the second communication is established, a second wireless channel used for the second communication is set so as to match the second wireless channel with a first wireless channel to be used when the connection for the first communication is established.
