There is provided a wireless LAN access point capable of confirming and changing the setting using the IP communication for a target wireless LAN access point positively even when the IP address of the wireless LAN access point is forgotten. The wireless LAN access point, upon receipt of a probe request, transmits a probe response while at the same time starting to transmit a beacon frame required to be periodically transmitted. The wireless LAN access point starts the DHCP server therein at the same time that the process of associating the wireless LAN station is started. The DHCP server operates only for the wireless interface of the wireless LAN access point and the wireless LAN station associated by use of the maintenance SSID. The wireless LAN access point, upon complete association of the wireless LAN station with the local access point, leases the IP address to the wireless LAN station from the DHCP server in the particular local access point.
