1. A portable communication device comprising:
a wireless communication circuit; and
a processor coupled with the wireless communication circuit, the processor configured to:
establish, using the wireless communication circuit, a Wi-Fi link via a first channel with an access point (AP) based on a first power;
obtain an input to establish a mobile hotspot link with an external electronic device while the Wi-Fi link is established between the portable communication device and the AP, the external electronic device being different from the AP;
establish, using the wireless communication circuit, the mobile hotspot link via the first channel with the external electronic device based on a second power lower than the first power while the Wi-Fi link is established between the portable communication device and the AP;
transmit, using the wireless communication circuit, a first signal to the AP based on the first power while the Wi-Fi link is maintained between the portable communication device and the AP; and
transmit, using the wireless communication circuit, a second signal to the external electronic device based on the second power while the mobile hotspot link is maintained between the portable communication device and the external electronic device.
