Abstract:
1. A wireless communication system comprising: a connection device which configures a first LAN which is a wireless LAN; a relay device which configures a second LAN different from the first LAN and relays data between a LAN terminal connected to the second LAN and the connection device; an authentication connection section which connects the relay device to the connection device through the first LAN by executing authentication conforming to an infrastructure mode based on a request from the relay device to the connection device, wherein the connection device registers an attribute of the relay device as a terminal station in the infrastructure mode, the relay device transmits a signal to the connection device, and the connection device changes the attribute of the relay device registered in the connection device from the terminal station to a specific terminal station for executing data communication using a data frame conforming to a wireless distribution system different from the infrastructure mode; and a data transfer section which transfers data to be communicated between the LAN terminal and the connection device by using the data frame conforming to the wireless distribution system between the connection device and the relay device connected by the authentication connection section.
