Abstract

A first communication apparatus may comprise a memory configured to store a wireless profile being used in a first wireless network in a case where the first communication apparatus operates as a child station of the first wireless network. The first communication apparatus may determine, after the first wireless network in which each of the first communication apparatus and a second communication apparatus operates as a child station and a third communication apparatus operates as a parent station has been formed, whether a wireless connection between the first and third communication apparatuses is disconnected, and form a second wireless network in which the wireless profile is used in a case where it is determined that the wireless connection is disconnected, the second wireless network being a network in which the first communication apparatus operates as a parent station and the second communication apparatus operates as a child station.
