Abstract
A wireless communicator includes network processors transmitting data to and receiving data from respective different networks; a media access control (MAC) setter receiving pieces of information on a MAC layer from the plurality of network processors and storing the pieces of information on the MAC layer; and a MAC processor performing operations on media access control on the basis of the pieces of information stored in the MAC setter. In the wireless communicator, the network processors supply a frame signal containing network identification information corresponding to the respective network processors to the MAC processor. Thus, it is possible to provide a wireless communicator which can give a notice to every network processor even when broadcast frames are received and which can make a reply even when beacon request command frames are received.
