The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services.

Embodiments herein provide a method for managing paging procedure by a multi SIM user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network. The method includes receiving, by the multi SIM UE, a paging message from a first SIM network, where the multi SIM UE is on an active data session on a second SIM network. Further, the method includes reading, by the multi SIM UE, the paging message from the first SIM network and determining, by the multi SIM UE, that a higher priority service is on-going on the second SIM network; and managing, by the multi SIM UE, the paging procedure by sending a paging reject message to the first SIM network of the wireless communication network.

Example implementations relate to determining router and computing device performance. An example non-transitory machine-readable medium can include instructions executable by a processor to capture, from an agent device on a computing device of a network, computing device data and network connectivity data associated with the computing device and filter data associated with connectivity to non-WiFi networks from the captured computing device data and network connectivity data. The instructions can be executable to filter out-of-network data from the captured computing device data and network connectivity data, correlate the filtered data with wireless router performance data, and determine router and computing device performances based on the correlation.
