Hello @AstiRusty ,
In Regards to Point #1
AstiRusty:
Add option to revert to previous working configuration, when a new configuration is marked as testing. Purpose being Peplink router would automatically fallback to working configuration after running new configuration for specified amount of time or after loss of WAN / USB Connection for specified amount of time.
This has already been requested in several other posts, suggest reading and then adding you voice onto some of these as suitable:
@ReeXNeeX , @Don_Ferrario , the request has been sent to Engineering Team for review and consideration.
We shall post the update here once we have more concrete information to share.
Hi,
Yes, Auto-roll back is coming. This is part of InControl 2.8 and will apply when configuration changes are pushed from InControl. If the device fails to connect to InControl after 10 minutes, then iit will automatically roll-back to the previous configuration.
I’ve made a quick video > Here < to show some of the new features coming with InControl 2.8
Thanks,
Steve
Hello zegor_mjol,
It looks like our engineers are currently working on something like this. They are aiming to have supported added in IC2 2.8.0 that if a device isn’t able to reach IC2 within 10 minutes it should automatically role back.
In Regards to Point #2
AstiRusty:
Add option to temporarily break WAN / USB Modem Connection when amount of data transferred hits given percent of monthly or daily allowed limit. Purpose stop a user or process from using up all monthly GBs allowed.
This feature already exists and has been written about previously within the form.
Hello Olga_Spimpolo,
You can enable Bandwidth Allowance Monitor under the cellular WAN settings and define your Monthly Allowance for the device. The Start Day can also be changed to match your billing cycle.

On devices with inbuilt modems (such as the Pepwave MAX models), it looks like this.
On devices using external USB modems (such as the Balance Router models), it looks like this
You will need to be on Firmware 8.0.0 or later. The setting is found at the bottom of the “Cellular Settings” for inbuilt cellular modems and for external USB modems it is found under “Bandwidth Allowance Monitor”.
There is also a way with request #2 to do this on a daily per user basis using the Captive Portal features of the Balance & MAX routers, search the forum for information on how to do this, we have done this for many customers that need daily limits for client devices (such as with Guest networks).
Happy to Help,
