Abstract
A method and apparatus for wireless communication device operation comprises receiving one or more metrics from at least two members of a group whose members are wireless communication devices. The members of the group have agreed to share resources within the group and have their wireless connections controlled by the WCD. The wireless connections of the at least two members are managed, based on the one or more metrics, to optimize performance of the at least two members. The one or more metrics comprise at least one temperature based metric.
