Abstract
An IP telephone apparatus is provided. Before a status that transmission data can be transmitted to/received from the counter party of communication is established, a communication status measuring unit measures the communication status with the counter party of communication. A transmission rate setting unit sets a transmission rate of transmission data from a communication interface to a transmission rate corresponding to the measurement result from the communication status measuring unit on the basis of the measurement result. During a transmission time when the status that transmission data can be transmitted to/received from the counter party of communication is established, the measurement of the communication status by the communication status measuring unit and the setting of the transmission rate by the transmission rate setting unit, similarly to those before the status that transmission data can be transmitted to/received from the counter party of communication is established.
