Apparatus, program and method for efficient data transmission with a wireless communications module

摘要

A computer device, according to the present invention, includes: a power source judging means for judging whether power is supplied from an AC power source to the computer device capable of connecting with a wireless communications module which transmits and receives data to/from an access point; and a control means for controlling the timing of measuring the strength of connection with the above described access point based on judgment by the above described power source judging means. Therefore, by setting the timing of measuring the strength of connection with the access point based on whether or not the computer device is used at an almost fixed location, which in turn is judged by distinguishing the type of power source, it is possible to change the amounts of data transmitted and received by the wireless communications module.
