Dependent claims

A method for operating an electronic device, the method comprising:

identifying traffic corresponding to at least one application associated with a server and another electronic device;
determining a priority of the traffic for each of a first path and a second path based on application related information;
determining a first parameter of the first path based on the priority of the traffic for the first path, and a second parameter of the second path based on the priority of the traffic for the second path;
and
transmitting downlink packet based on the first parameter for the first path, and uplink packet based on the second parameter for the second path,
wherein the first path is a path between the electronic device and the another electronic device, and
wherein the second path is a path between the electronic device and the server.
