Abstract
A control method for an information processing apparatus includes causing a display unit to display a screen including an accepting item for accepting a user instruction so as to perform setup processing that allows a communication apparatus that has transmitted first information to connect with an external access point, and performing the setup processing in which second information relating to the external access point is transmitted to the communication apparatus by a first wireless communication standard, in a case where the user instruction is performed on the accepting item. A connection between the communication apparatus and the external access point is performed based on the second information transmitted by the first wireless communication standard, and thus the information processing apparatus is able to communicate with the communication apparatus via the external access point by the communication based on a second wireless communication standard.
