Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes: wireless communication circuitry, at least one processor operatively connected with the wireless communication circuitry, and a memory operatively connected with the at least one processor. The memory stores instructions which, when executed, cause the at least one processor to control the electronic device to: identify a state of the electronic device, receive a system information block (SIB) from a first base station supporting a first cellular network via the wireless communication circuitry, identify whether a network to which the electronic device belongs supports dual connectivity (DC) between the first cellular network and a second cellular network based on information included in the SIB, enable a second cellular network function of the wireless communication circuitry based on the network supporting the DC, and transmit information indicating that the second cellular network function of the electronic device is enabled to the network via the wireless communication circuitry.
