An image input device connects to a network, and achieves, when a user wants to connect to a particular communication counterpart by operating the image input device, reliable connection with the counterpart that the user wants to connect by smoothly avoiding connection with other communication counterparts. Meanwhile, if the user wants to connect to the image input device by operating an information processor, connection with a communication counterpart which has issued a connection request earliest is achieved without operation of the image input device. For example, a digital camera has a wireless communication function of wirelessly connecting to a PC (personal computer), which is an information processor. Pairing information for identifying a PC to be a communication counterpart is set in advance, by connecting to the PC via a USB cable. When the start of connection with the PC is instructed, the digital camera transitions into a state capable of wireless connection with the PC based on the set pairing information. |
