Abstract
An information processing apparatus that communicates with a communication apparatus includes a connecting unit that connects to a first access point in the communication apparatus, a connection-information acquisition unit that acquires connection information for connecting to a second access point in the communication apparatus via the first access point, a storage unit that stores the acquired connection information in a memory, and a receiving unit that receives an instruction to transmit data. Upon receipt of an instruction to transmit data when the connecting unit is not connected to the second access point, the connecting unit connects to the second access point using the stored connection information stored in the storage unit, and when the connecting unit is connected to the second access point, the first access point is disabled.
