An electronic device, according to various embodiments of the present invention, comprises a network connection device, at least one processor, and a memory operatively connected to the at least one processor, wherein the memory stores instructions which, when executed, cause the at least one processor to: receive a data packet from the network connection device; add the data packet to a packet list corresponding to the data packet; and when the number of data packets included in the packet list is less than a threshold value, flush the data packets to a network stack on the basis of a flush time value for controlling a packet aggregation function, wherein the flush time value may be determined on the basis of the network throughput.
