Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a first wireless communication circuit communicating with a first wireless network based on a first communication protocol, a second wireless communication circuit communicating with a second wireless network based on a second communication protocol, a display, a processor, and a memory. The memory stores instructions that cause the processor to connect to the first wireless network using the first wireless communication circuit, obtain service restriction information associated with the first wireless network, determine whether a service associated with data is restricted in the first wireless network using the service restriction information, and maintain a connection to the first wireless network to transmit the data over the second wireless communication network using the second wireless communication circuit when the service associated with the data is restricted in the first wireless network.
