Abstract:
Disclosed are an electronic device for wireless communication and a method thereof. The electronic device may include an interface module and a processor. The processor may be configured to establish a first Ethernet tethering connection with an external electronic device by using an Ethernet driver, provide an Internet service to the external electronic device using a first IP address allocated to the external electronic device, deactivate the Ethernet driver in response to identifying that the IP address of the electronic device is changed and the first Ethernet tethering connection is in the bridge mode, reactivate the deactivated Ethernet driver, establish a second Ethernet tethering connection with the external electronic device by using the reactivated Ethernet driver, and provide the Internet service to the external electronic device using a second IP address allocated to the external electronic device.
