1. An electronic device comprising:
a wireless communication circuit; and
a processor, wherein the processor is configured to:
establish a first communication link with a first external electronic device using the wireless communication circuit;
establish a second communication link with a second external electronic device using the wireless communication circuit;
transmit connection information related to the first communication link to the second external electronic device via the second communication link;
determine whether configuration information related to operation of the first communication link needs to change;
based on determination that the configuration information needs to change:
identify first operation information of the electronic device for the first communication link, and
request second operation information of the second external electronic device for the first communication link from the second external electronic device via the second communication link;
in response to reception of the second operation information, determine whether to change the configuration information, based on the first operation information and the second operation information;
in response to a determination to change the configuration information, determine a change value of the configuration information, based on the first operation information and the second operation information by:
when each of the first operation information and the second operation information is a numerical value, determining an average value of a first value indicated by the first operation information and a second value indicated by the second operation information, a smaller value between the first value and the second value, or a greater value between the first value and the second value as the change value of the configuration information; or
when each of the first operation information and the second operation information is a range value, determining a third range value corresponding to a common part between a first range value indicated by the first operation information and a second range value indicated by the second operation information as the change value of the configuration information; and
transmit the change value of the configuration information to the first external electronic device via the first communication link.
