Abstract
A device includes: a first wireless communication interface; a second wireless communication interface; a storage; and a controller. The controller is configured to perform: storing in the storage a center communication frequency of a second communication channel used for second wireless communications; determining a search target distribution, the search target distribution being a range defined by minimum and maximum communication frequencies among a plurality of communication frequencies, the plurality of communication frequencies being at least a part of a plurality of center communication frequencies stored in the storage and being separated from each other by less than a first frequency bandwidth occupied by each of a plurality of first channels; and determining a first communication channel from among at least one first channel satisfying a condition requiring that both minimum and frequencies of each of the at least one first channel be included in the search target distribution.
