Information processing apparatus, method for controlling the same, and computer-readable medium

An information processing apparatus configured to communicate with a communication apparatus, the information processing apparatus comprising:

• at least one processer, the at least one processer controlling
• a first connecting unit configured to establish a first connection that is a direct connection between the communication apparatus and the information processing apparatus;
• a connection-information acquisition unit configured to acquire, via the first connection, connection information for establishing a second connection that is a direct connection between the communication apparatus and the information processing apparatus, the second connection being different from the first connection;
• a storage unit configured to store the acquired connection information in a memory;
• a receiving unit configured to receive a transmission instruction to transmit data from a user;
• a second connecting unit configured to establish the second connection using the stored connection information;
• and
• a transmitting unit configured to transmit the data to the communication apparatus via the second connection;
• wherein, based on receipt of the transmission instruction, the second connection is established, a third connection between a mobile communication network capable of communicating with the Internet and the information processing apparatus is released, and the data is transmitted to the communication apparatus via the second connection, and
• wherein when transmission of the data based on the transmission instruction is ended, the second connection is released and the third connection is established.
