Abstract

To allow a communication device that controls a network made up of a plurality of base stations to control, when a plurality of links is to be established between the base stations, the establishment of the links.SOLUTION: A communication device that operates as an access point has communication means for communicating with another communication device that operates as an access point. The communication means is configured to communicate with another communication device via a first frequency band and to communicate with another communication device via a second frequency band different from the first frequency band. When the communication means determines on the basis of the communication state between the communication device and another communication device to stop a first communication via the first frequency band, the communication means stops the first communication and performs a second communication via the second frequency band.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
