This communications system comprises: a wireless mesh network formed by gateways and smart meters; and a management server that manages the number of smart meters housed in each gateway and also collects and manages measurement results from the smart meters. When the management server detects that a gateway has started up, the management server determines the smart meters that will cause an entry destination wireless mesh network to change, on the basis of the number of smart meters housed in each gateway to be managed and on the position information for each smart meter, and instructs each determined smart meter to change to the wireless mesh network managed by the gateway that started the entry destination wireless mesh network. |
