Abstract
The present disclosure relates to content streaming. An electronic device includes a processor configured to execute an application that communicates with a server using a pre-defined secure protocol. The electronic device also includes both a communication circuit configured to receive content associated with the application through a first network from a server, and a buffer configured to store the received content. The communication circuit determines a state of the buffer, and terminates a session established between the electronic device and the server based on the state of the buffer and signal state of a second network. The communication circuit also establishes a new session between the electronic device and the server through the second network. The communication circuit also measures a data throughput of the second network for the server during a measuring time, and, if the measured data throughput meets a condition, receives the content through the second network.
