Communication method, communication apparatus, software program and computer-readable recording medium

A communication apparatus for enjoying service from a service providing system that provides predetermined service to a user after user authentication via a communication line and disconnects the communication line when the user authentication is not completed within a predetermined time, said communication apparatus comprising:

• a monitor that monitors a communication state of the communication line;
• an activating part that activates an operation of re-setting a communication parameter relating to communication when the communication state is degraded;
• and
• a suspending part that suspends, during a predetermined time after the communication line is connected, at least one of functions of said monitor or said activating part.

A software program for causing a computer to carry out a process for enjoying service from a service providing system that provides predetermined service to a user after user authentication via a communication line and disconnects the communication line when the user authentication is not completed within a predetermined time, said software program comprising the instructions of:

• (a) causing the computer to monitor a communication state of the communication line;
• (b) causing the computer to activate an operation of re-setting a communication parameter relating to communication when the communication state is degraded;
• and
• (c) causing the computer to suspend, during a predetermined time after the communication line is connected, at least one of monitoring the communication state of the communication line and activating the operation of re-setting the communication parameter relating to the communication when the communication state is degraded.

A computer-readable recording medium that stores a software program for causing a computer to carry out a process for enjoying service from a service providing system that provides predetermined service to a user after user authentication via a communication line and disconnects the communication line when the user authentication is not completed within a predetermined time, said software program comprising the instructions of:

• (a) causing the computer to monitor a communication state of the communication line;
• (b) causing the computer to activate an operation of re-setting a communication parameter relating to communication when the communication state is degraded;
• and
• (c) causing the computer to suspend, during a predetermined time after the communication line is connected, at least one of monitoring the communication state of the communication line and activating the operation of re-setting the communication parameter relating to the communication when the communication state is degraded.
