Packets each including a sequence number and a time stamp are sequentially received, and a linear expression representing a correspondence between the sequence number and the time stamp is calculated based on the received packets. If a packet including a sequence number discontinuous to sequence numbers of the previously received packets is received, it is determined whether the currently received packet satisfies the linear expression by checking the sequence number and the time stamp of the currently received packet. If the currently received packet including the sequence number discontinuous to the sequence numbers of the previously received packets satisfies the linear expression, an output order is changed according to the sequence numbers of the packets. If the currently received packet including the sequence number discontinuous to the sequence numbers of the previously received packets does not satisfy the linear expression, the currently received packet is output.
