Windows 10: Delivery optimization over metered connection

I would like to know if delivery optimization can be turned off for delivering or receiving updates from other computers on local network when connected over metered connection.

I know the documentation mentions delivery optimization is disabled when on a metered connection but it says device on metered connection cannot send to other devices on the internet not local network.

Windows Update and Delivery Optimization burning through data on metered connection

We suggest that to manage your connection consume for Windows Update and Delivery Optimization is to configure Delivery Optimization through Group Policy and Windows Update by deferring the Windows Update.

For more information on how to use Group Policy to configure Windows Update Delivery Optimization in Windows 10, check this
link.

Deferring Windows upgrades prevent your device from getting the latest Windows features downloaded or installed for several months. It doesn't affect any security updates. To do this, follow these steps:

• Type Settings in Cortana Search and press
  Enter.
  
• Click Update & Security and click Advance Options under
  Update settings.
  
• Check the tick box for Defer feature updates.

Windows Update and Delivery Optimization burning through data on metered connection

Hi Caleb,

Since Windows Update and Delivery Optimization are already set up to your metered connection, it won't automatically download and send updates. Setting them to Metered disables the automatic downloading of most Windows updates, automatic downloading of app
updates, peer-to-peer uploading of updates and auto update of Tiles.

They're still run in the background because Windows Update and Delivery Optimization are routinely checking your system for security and performance. For more information about Metered Internet connections, check this
link. To review on how to configure Delivery Optimization, check on this
link.

Feel free to post back if you need further assistance.

please help me permanently disable delivery optimization because when I'm gaming it suddenly starts and my ping just skyrockets and ruins the game for me. I already put it on metered connection etc. and I also disabled it on services tab but it is still
starts even when the tab next to it says it is disabled.
