Radio station and output prevention method
First Claim
1. A radio station, which conducts radio communications with an access point comprising a part of a wireless LAN and which communicates with other devices through the access point, the radio station comprising:
- a parameter recording section that records connection data of the access point for conducting radio communications;
a setting information acquisition section that acquires setting information indicating whether the access point is set to prevent communication of the recorded connection data;
a determination section that determines whether the access point is set to prevent communication of the recorded connection data based on the setting information acquired by the setting information acquisition section; and
an output prevention section that prevents a part or all of the recorded connection data of the access point from being outputted to the outside of the radio station if the determination section determines that the access point is set to prevent communication of the recorded connection data.

Abstract
A radio station, which conducts radio communications with an access point configuring a part of a wireless LAN, has a setting information acquisition section that acquires setting information as to whether or not the access point is set so as not to output connection data for conducting radio communications, a determination section that determines whether or not the access point is set so as not to output the connection data based on the setting information acquired by the setting information acquisition section, and an output prevention section that prevents a part or all of the connection data set or acquired in conducting radio communications with the access point from being outputted to the outside of the radio station if the determination section determines that the access point is set so as not to output the connection data.

12. An output prevention method for preventing a radio station, which conducts radio communications with an access point comprising a part of a wireless LAN and which communicates with other devices through the access point, from outputting from the radio station at least a part of connection data used to conduct radio communications with the access point, the method comprising:
-
recording the connection data; acquiring setting information indicating whether the access point is set to prevent communication of the recorded connection data; determining whether the access point is set to prevent communication of the recorded connection data based on the acquired setting information; and preventing a part or all of the recorded connection data of the access point from being outputted from the radio station if the access point is determined to be set to prevent communication of the recorded connection data.

13. A radio station which conducts radio communications with an access point and communicates with other devices through the access point, the radio station comprising:
-
a parameter recording section that records parameter data including a connection data indicating settings for the radio station to conduct radio communications with the access point; a data receiving section that receives first data and second data transmitted from the access point, the first data including the connection data, the second data not including the connection data; a determination section that determines which one of the first data and the second data the data receiving section receives; an output section that outputs the parameter data recorded in the parameter recording section; a command receiving section that receives a request command to output the parameter data from the output section; and an output prevention section that performs an output control of the connection data from the output section based on a result of the determination section. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A radio station that conducts wireless communications with an access point and communicates with other devices through the access point, the radio station comprising:
-
a receiving section that receives a parameter data for communicating with the access point, from the access point; a determination section that, when the receiving section does not receive the parameter data from which an identifying data for identifying the access point is recognizable for a threshold time period, determines that the access point is set to prevent output of the identifying data; and an outputting section that outputs information indicating that the access point is set to prevent output of the identifying data in response to a request for outputting the identifying data, when the determination section determines that the access point is set to prevent output of the identifying data. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23)
