Abstract:
A communication device may, in a specific situation where the communication device is in a parent station state in which the communication device operates as a parent station of a first wireless network and N pieces of first external devices participate in the first wireless network as child stations, receive a belonging request from a second external device. The communication device may shift from the parent station state to a first state, in a case where the belonging request is received in the specific situation, execute a wireless communication of target data with the second external device, shift from the first state to the parent station state, and cause M pieces of the first external devices among the N pieces of the first external devices to participate in the first wireless network again as child stations after the communication device has been shifted to the parent station state.

Claim (Index 10):
The communication device as in  claim 1 , wherein\n the computer-readable instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the communication device to: send a participation request to at least one piece of the first external devices via the wireless interface after the operation state of the communication device has been shifted from the first state to the parent station state, so as to cause the M pieces of the first external devices among the N pieces of the first external devices to participate in the first wireless network again as the child stations, and the participation request is a command for requesting the first external device to participate in the first wireless network.
