Abstract: A wireless terminal connects, via wireless communication, with an AP having a relay function between a wireless LAN and other networks. The wireless terminal acquires from the AP configuration information required to configure the wireless terminal to use a particular network environment. The wireless terminal may further acquire from the AP configuration information required to configure particular software applications for use in a particular network environment. When connecting with the AP, the wireless terminal can automatically acquire the configuration information previously stored in a database. The configuration information includes, for example, configuration information required for the wireless terminal to connect with a wired LAN and configuration information required by particular software applications to run in the wired LAN environment.
