First Claim
1. A system for informing that the user is in or not in wireless LAN service area comprising at least:
- a preset data storing means for storing identification data of a hot spot dealer, to which the user is subscribed, and identification data of a hot spot dealer in roaming contract relation to the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer;
a wireless communication means;
a display means; and
a means functioning;
when providing a display as to whether the user is in the service area of a hot spot service, to obtain the electric field intensity of a channel as a subject of survey and identification data of a dealer and check whether the obtained identification data is identical with identification data of the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer, which is stored in the preset data storing means;
when the obtained identification data is identical with the identification data of the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer, to output data for display on the display means such that the user can decide that the obtained electric field intensity is that of the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer; and
when the obtained identification data is identical with the identification data of the roaming contract relation dealer, to output data for display on the display means such that the user can decide that the obtained electric field intensity is that of the roaming contract relation dealer.

Abstract
A preset data storing means 108 stores identification data of the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot data and identification data of a hot spot dealer in roaming contract relation to the own hot spot dealer. A wireless communication means 107 obtains the electric field intensity of a channel as a subject of survey and identification data of a dealer. A means functions, when the obtained identification data is identical with the identification data user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer as stored in the preset data storing means, to display on a display means 105 that the obtained identification data is the identification data of the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer such that the user can understand the displayed content at a glance, and when the obtained data fails to be identical with the roaming contract relation hot spot dealer, to display on the display means 105 that the obtained electric field intensity is that of the roaming contract relation dealer such that the user can understand the displayed content at a glance.

11. A method of informing that the user is in or not in a wireless LAN service area, in which:
-
identification data of the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer and identification data of a hot spot dealer in roaming contract relation to the own hot spot dealer are stored in a preset data storing means; and
which comprises;
a step executed by a wireless communication means to obtain the electric field intensity of a channel as a subject of survey and identification data of a dealer and check whether the obtained identification data is the identification data of the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer as stored in preset data storing means;
a step of displaying, when the obtained identification data is identical with the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer, that the obtained electric field intensity is that of the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer on a display means such that the user can understand the displayed content at a glance;
a step of making a check, when the obtained identification data fails to be identical with the identification data of the user'"'"'s own subscribed hot spot dealer, as to whether the obtained data is identical with the identification data of the roaming contract relation dealer; and
a step of displaying, when the obtained identification data is identical with the identification data of the roaming contract relation dealer, that the obtained electric field intensity is that of the roaming contract relation dealer such that the user can understand the displayed content at a glance. - View Dependent Claims (12, 14, 16, 17)
