The television phone adapter includes a telephone adapter unit that detects dial operation of an analog telephone connected to a router with an IP telephone function, a video adapter unit that connects and disconnects a video connection using an IP network, sends a video taken by a camera to a communication partner and outputs a video received from the communication partner to a display 4 through the video connection in the connected state. A translation table stores correspondence between dial operation and a setting content.
