Claim:
1. A communication device comprising: a memory; a wireless LAN I/F that searches for an access point, and stores an access point information item of the found access point into a search area; a processor that executes instructions stored in the memory to: store the access point information item stored in the search area into a result area; and display a result of the search for the access point, based on the access point information item stored in the result area, wherein the processor sorts the access point information items stored in the result area in descending order of radio field intensity, wherein the processor compares a radio field intensity of a first access point specified by the access point information item stored in the search area, and a radio field intensity of a second access point specified by the access point information item stored at a bottom of the result area, and wherein in a case where the first access point is higher in radio field intensity than the second access point as a result of the comparison, the processor stores the access point information item of the first access point, instead of the access point information item of the second access point into the result area.
