Abstract
A mobile terminal device includes a processor that connects to a base station; connects to a network through an access point; and detects transition from a non-display state to a display state; and a storage device that stores connection history information correlating area identification information identifying a communication area of the base station, and access point identification information identifying an access point through which connection to the network has been made in the communication area. The processor, when detecting the transition in a communication area of a first base station, starts searching for an access point in the communication area of the first base station after a predetermined period elapses, and determines whether an entry including first area identification information of the first base station is retrieved from the connection history information; and after the predetermined period elapses, performs control to connect to the network, based on a determination result.
