1. A system comprising a first electronic device and a second electronic device,
wherein each of the first electronic device and the second electronic device comprises a wireless communication circuitry, a memory, and at least one processor,
wherein the system is configured to perform a plurality of operations comprising:
creating a first link between the first electronic device and an external electronic device, based on a Bluetooth network;
creating a second link between the first electronic device and the second electronic device, based on the Bluetooth network;
transmitting, to the second electronic device, information associated with the first link, through the second link;
for a first time duration, configuring the first electronic device to transmit a first signal indicating “ACK” to the second electronic device in a case the first electronic device receives a first data packet from the external electronic device, and to transmit a response message indicating “NACK” to the external electronic device in a case that first electronic device fails to receive the first data packet; and
for the first time duration, configuring the second electronic device to transmit a response message indicating “ACK” to the external electronic device in a case the second electronic device receives the first signal and the first data packet, and to transmit a response message indicating “NACK” to the external electronic device in a case the second electronic device fails to receive the first data packet;
for a second time duration, configuring the second electronic device to transmit a second signal indicating “ACK” to the first electronic device in a case the second electronic device receives a second data packet from the external electronic device, and to transmit a response message indicating “NACK” to the external electronic device in a case that second electronic device fails to receive the second data packet; and
for the second time duration, configuring the first electronic device to transmit a response message indicating “ACK” to the external electronic device in a case the first electronic device receives the second signal and the second data packet, and to transmit a response message indicating “NACK” to the external electronic device in a case the first electronic device fails to receive the second data packet.
