Does peplink detect when I am on priority data?
Current use case is on a boat, where I have a guest network I want to shut down while on priority data further away than 12 miles from the coast (not sure the exact distance where priority data is required), Amazon fire stick can eat a lot of internet in just 10 minutes the other day it took 1.5gb, watching nothing, just connected to the network.

Hello…

Have you try this?

  1. Go to “Settings”
  2. Go to “Apps & notifications” (might be labeled differently, but whatever says “Apps”)
  3. Tap on the Amazon Shopping app.
  4. Go to “Mobile data & Wi-Fi” or an equivalently labeled section.
  5. Adjust your settings so it’s not doing stuff in the background.

or

Select Start , then select Settings > Apps > Apps & features. Scroll to the desired app, select More options on the right edge of the window, then select Advanced options. In the Background apps permissions section, under Let this app run in the background, select Never.

I will try, but it would be nice to have this also controlled at the router side, I have seeing there is a DHCP option for android devices on this forum, but haven’t tested so far.

Laptop also eats a lot of chunk while syncing one drive, (as it is supposed to do)
