  • Publication number: 20100031154
    Abstract: A plurality of servers each transmit data of an initial screen to be displayed on a display screen of radio equipment at a predetermined time interval. The radio equipment is in a reception waiting mode until it is connected to any one of the servers, and is performing channel scanning. Once the data of the initial screen transmitted from any one of the servers is received by the radio equipment, the radio equipment displays the initial screen on the display screen based on the received data. When an operation of a connection instruction is performed on the initial screen, the radio equipment is connected to the server corresponding to the initial screen.
