eseelke Posted July 9, 2014 Report Posted July 9, 2014 In Windows 8.1 you can set a network connection as a metered connection. When a connection is metered, the OS will limit downloads that are compliant, ie Windows Updates, Metro Apps, etc. An example of a metered connection would be an AT&T hotspot that has 10GB of data per month. The Windows device would connect to the hotspot via Wifi and the Wifi connection would be marked as a metered connection. It would be great if BitTorrent Sync had an option when installed on Windows 8.1 to limit or pause syncing automatically while on a metered connection. Here is the information needed for the developers to add this feature.http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh465399.aspx Quote
Sparticuz Posted January 29, 2016 Report Posted January 29, 2016 Adhering to the Metered connections settings would be great! Quote
kohnworkshop Posted September 18, 2017 Report Posted September 18, 2017 I third this suggestion. Pause syncing on metered connections! Quote
kadikadi Posted September 1 Report Posted September 1 I was justing looking to check if this is currently supported? Because as a Remote Worker this feature would be really useful. Quote
