Abstract
A terminal device may, in a case where a function executing operation is accepted, send, by using a target communication path, a function executing instruction for causing the function executing device. The terminal device may, in a case where a predetermined condition which includes a memory of the terminal device storing Virtual Private Network (VPN) communication information is satisfied, execute a related process related to switching the target communication path from a first communication path to a second communication path. The first communication path may be a communication path for communicating with the function executing device via a local area network without using the Internet. The second communication path may be a communication path for communicating with the function executing device via the Internet.
