Abstract
A mobile terminal apparatus includes first communications circuitry that connects to a network through an access point; a storage device storing connection history information that includes entries associating area identification information that identifies a communication area of a base station to which second communications circuitry connects, network identification information that identifies the network, and access point identification information that identifies an access point that connected to the network in the communication area; and a processor that when in a communication area of a first base station identified by first area identification information, the first communications circuitry is connected to a first network identified by first network identification information, determines whether an entry that includes the first area identification information and the first network identification information together with different access point identification information has been retrieved from the connection history information and based on this determination, controls the first communications circuitry.
