Abstract
A communication device may output a code image representing code information including a public key of the communication device and specific network identification information. In a first case where the public key included in the code information is used by a terminal device, the communication device may receive first connection information from the terminal device by executing a predetermined communication in which the public key is used with the terminal device, and establish a Wi-Fi connection with a target access point by using the first connection information. In a second case where the specific network identification information included in the code information is used, the communication device may establish a Wi-Fi connection with the terminal device; receive second connection information from the terminal device by using the Wi-Fi connection with the terminal device, and establish a Wi-Fi connection with the target access point by using the second connection information.
