Abstract
A game device is provided with an SSID setting unit and a channel setting unit. The SSID setting unit sets up an SSID to include an application ID uniquely defined for an application to be executed. For example, when an application A is executed, the SSID is set up to include “TITLE_A”. When an application B is executed, the SSID is set up to include “TITLE_B”. The channel setting unit sets up a communication channel based on the SSID such that the communication channel used in the BSSs do not overlap each other as much as possible.
Claims8
A network identifier setting method wherein a network identifier is set up to include an application identifier uniquely defined for an application executed in a wireless communication terminal.
A communication method comprising:
- generating a network identifier that includes an application identifier uniquely defined for an application executed in a wireless communication terminal;
- and
- participating in a wireless network based on the network identifier generated.
A wireless communication terminal comprising:
- a network identifier setting unit which sets up a network identifier to include an application identifier uniquely defined for an application to be executed;
- and
- a channel setting unit which sets up a communication channel based on the network identifier set up.
A program causing a computer capable of executing a wireless communication function to execute the functions of generating a network identifier that includes an application identifier uniquely defined for an application to be executed and participating in a wireless network based on the network identifier generated.
