  1. Metered wifi


    I cannot complete downloads because metered wifi is on, this I think needs to be changed and as far as I can make out I have to change form Administrator acc to user acc, but I can't find how to do that.

    :)

  3. sheduling wifi for metered houres

    Hi

    Thank you for your answer to my question

    I want to know if this event you suggested controls WiFi metered status or it is controlling all network traffic?

    I want just put metered status of my WiFi at for example 1 o'clock everyday off and at 7 o'clock on when my Windows 10 is running and I am logged on to only control windows 10 auto updating and yet having access to any online Internet information.

    Thank You

    Have a good time

    Metered Broadband Thoughts


    Microsoft has had suggestions for years to give an Ethernet connection the ability to be considered as Metered. If you think about it, if you are running an ISP which does charge you for extra usage, whether your computer is running a Wireless or Wired connection, that usage will still be counted.

    I certainly understand the reason for metering a 3G or 4G connection, but why not at least have the ability to meter all of them.

    By the way, I just noticed the Data Usage listing which does show WiFi and LAN usage. The Storage Settings on that same page may be useful to some folks.
