Abstract
To make it easy to specify a terminal (wireless communication device) connected to an access point (wireless connection device) by performing display corresponding to the access point to which the terminal is connected. A wireless connection device reads, from a storage unit, specified information for designating a display mode for specifying a connection of the wireless connection device itself, performs wireless communications with a wireless communication device, and notifies the wireless communication device of the specified information read from the storage unit. On the other hand, the wireless communication device performs the wireless communications with the wireless connection device, receives the specified information from the wireless connection device, and conducts the display in the display mode designated in the specified information.
