Non-transitory computer-readable medium for communication device, and method performed by communication device

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing computer-readable instructions for a communication device,

• wherein the computer-readable instructions, when executed by a processor of the communication device, cause the communication device to:
• acquire predetermined information from a first interface of the communication device, the predetermined information being information related to establishment of a wireless link with an external device via a second interface of the communication device, the second interface being different from the first interface;
• supply a first specific instruction to an OS (abbreviation of Operating System) program of the communication device in a case where the predetermined information is acquired from the first interface, the first specific instruction including an instruction for causing the second interface of the communication device to send a specific response request;
• shift an operation state of the communication device to a parent station state from a specific state different from the parent station state, in a case where the predetermined information is acquired from the first interface;
• and
• supply a second specific instruction to the OS program in a case where the second interface receives a response from an external device in response to sending the specific response request and the operation state of the communication device is shifted to the parent station state,
• the second specific instruction including an instruction for causing the second interface to send a participation request to the external device, and
• the participation request being a command for requesting the external device to participate in a specific wireless network as a child station,
• the specific wireless network being a network in which the communication device operates as a parent station and being for executing a second interface wireless communication via the second interface.

A method performed by a communication device, the method comprising:

• acquiring predetermined information from a first interface of the communication device under a state where a number of child stations participating in a first wireless network in which an external device operates as a first parent station is equal to an upper limit, the predetermined information being information related to establishment of a wireless link with the external device via a second interface of the communication device, the second interface being different from the first interface, the upper limit being for the number of the child stations that can participate in the first wireless network;
• shifting an operation state of the communication device to a parent station state from a specific state different from the parent station state, in a case where the predetermined information is acquired from the first interface;
• and
• supplying a first predetermined instruction to an OS (abbreviation of Operating System) program of the communication device after the operation state of the communication device has been shifted to the parent station state,
• the first predetermined instruction including an instruction for causing a second interface of the communication device to send a participation request to the external device,
• the participation request being a command for requesting the external device to participate in a second wireless network different from the first wireless network as a child station, and
• the second wireless network being a network in which the communication device operates as a second parent station different from the first parent station and being for executing a second wireless interface communication via the second interface.
