Abstract
A communication device includes a first communication unit and a second communication unit and is configured to wirelessly connect to an electronic apparatus. The first communication unit and the second communication unit operate in the same communication protocol. The first communication unit is configured to wait for a connection request from the electronic apparatus, and the second communication unit is configured to wirelessly connect to the electronic apparatus from which the first communication unit received a connection request. The first communication unit is configured to wait, where the first communication unit is not connected to the electronic apparatus, for a connection request in a first mode in which a waiting time period is relatively long, and the first communication unit is configured to wait, where the first communication unit is connected to the electronic apparatus, for a connection request in a second mode in which the waiting time period is relatively short.
