1. A communication device comprising:
a first wireless interface configured to perform communication with an information processing device using a first wireless communication scheme, the first wireless interface comprising a storage unit that is configured to store specific information, and the first wireless interface being configured to function as an Integrated Circuit tag;
a second wireless interface configured to perform communication with the information processing device using a second wireless communication scheme different from the first wireless communication scheme;
a specific wireless interface configured to perform communication with the information processing device using a specific wireless communication scheme different from the first wireless communication scheme and the second wireless communication scheme; and
a control device coupled to the first wireless interface, the second wireless interface and the specific wireless interface,
wherein
in a first case where the communication device uses the second wireless interface:
the first wireless interface is configured to perform sending the specific information, which is stored in the storage unit, to the information processing device, the specific information is information for communicating object data with the information processing device by using the second wireless interface via a first wireless network, and the first wireless network is a network to which the communication device and the information processing device belong,
after the specific information has been sent, the control device is configured to perform communicating object data with the information processing device by using the second wireless interface via the first wireless network,
in a second case where the communication device does not use the second wireless interface:
the first wireless interface is configured to perform sending specific network identification information to the information processing device, the specific network identification information is information for establishing a specific wireless network by using the specific wireless interface;
after the specific network identification information has been sent, the control device is further configured to perform establishing the specific wireless network with the information processing device by using the specific wireless interface; and
after the specific wireless network has been established, the control device is further configured to perform communicating object data with the information processing device by using the specific wireless interface via the specific wireless network.
