A display apparatus, an electronic apparatus, and an operating method thereof are provided. The display apparatus includes: a communication interface; a memory storing one or more instructions; and a processor configured to execute the one or more instructions stored in the memory, wherein the processor is further configured to, receive, from an electronic apparatus connected through a first communication protocol, electronic apparatus identification information for identifying the electronic apparatus and unique identification information generated by the electronic apparatus, based on receiving an input for accepting authentication in accordance with the electronic apparatus identification information, store the unique identification information received from the electronic apparatus, based on receiving an authentication request from the electronic apparatus connected through a second communication protocol, control the communication interface to transmit the stored unique identification information to the electronic apparatus, and receive a result of authentication performed based on the transmitted unique identification information, from the electronic apparatus.

Display apparatus, electronic apparatus and methods thereof

Provided is an electronic device including a Wi-Fi module and a processor. The Wi-Fi module includes circuitry including a first communication interface operating as a Wi-Fi station and configured to perform communication, and a second communication interface configured to perform communication based on Wi-Fi Direct. The processor is configured to execute at least one instruction. The processor is configured to: control the Wi-Fi module to set an operation mode of the second communication interface to a first mode for performing communication by operating as the Wi-Fi station, and perform communication connection with a second access point (AP) via the second communication interface in the first mode while connection with a first AP is maintained through the first communication interface.

Electronic device and operation method thereof

An electronic apparatus includes: a first communication circuit configured to perform wireless communication in a first mode; a second communication circuit configured to perform wireless communication with an access point in a second mode; and a processor configured to control the electronic apparatus to: obtain first identification information for a first mode-based wireless communication of an external apparatus through the first communication circuit, obtain address information for a second mode-based wireless communication of the external apparatus through the first communication circuit, obtain second identification information for the second mode-based wireless communication of the external apparatus through the second communication circuit using the obtained address, identify whether communication connection with the external apparatus is established through the first communication circuit or the second communication circuit based on the obtained first identification information, address information and second identification information, and perform an operation based on whether the communication connection with the external apparatus is established.

Electronic apparatus and control method thereof

A display device and a method of operating the same are provided. The display device includes: a display; a communicator configured to perform communication with a server via a wireless network; and a processor configured to execute at least one instruction to: receive a first packet from the server by communicating with the server to perform a first keep-alive operation according to a first communication protocol, generate and transmit, to the communicator, a second packet for performing a second keep-alive operation according to a second communication protocol with the server, based on data included in the received first packet, and control the display device to enter a suspend mode after transmitting the second packet, wherein the communicator is further configured to, while the display device is in the suspend mode, perform the second keep-alive operation by transmitting the second packet to the server at intervals of a first period.

Display device and operating method thereof

Provided are an electronic device and method of determining a peer-to-peer (P2P) operating channel. The electronic device includes a communication interface; and a processor configured to acquire access point (AP) connection information of the electronic device about a wireless connection to an AP and BT connection information of the electronic device about a connection to a Bluetooth device, receive, from a peer device attempting to establish a P2P connection to the electronic device, AP connection information of the peer device about a wireless connection to an AP, determine a P2P operating channel between the electronic device and the peer device based on the AP connection information and the BT connection information of the electronic device and the AP connection information of the peer device, and establish a P2P connection between the electronic device and the peer device according to the determined P2P operating channel.

Electronic device for determining P2P operating channel and method thereof

A mobile device, electronic device, and operation methods thereof are provided. The mobile device includes a communication interface; a memory storing one or more instructions; and a processor configured to execute the one or more instructions stored in the memory to: connect through the communication interface to an electronic device to be wirelessly connected to an access point (AP), obtain an AP list including one or more APs to each of which the mobile device has a history of being connected, identify one or more APs selected from the AP list having the connection history as candidate APs and create a candidate AP list including information about the identified one or more candidate APs, and transmit, to the electronic device, the candidate AP list and information about a home AP indicating an AP to which the mobile device is currently connected.
