Hi all, I have been using my DHD to connect to my neighbours broadband.....with their permission.
I do my downloading overnight and have set up my torrent scheduler to dl after everyone is in bed nextdoor.
I switched off the mobile connection to the internet so if there was any signal dropout or any problems that i would not burn up my 2GB of allownace form three.
I woke this morning to find that despite switching off the mobile connection that my DHD had been using the mobile data anyway and I have, ovrnight, burned 75% of my monthly allowance and the sickener is that Monday was the first day of my billing period.
I tried using WiFi in 'Flight' mode and it did work but i don't have enough data to do another ovrnight experiment and don't know how the DHD thinks when it switches on the Mobile data rather than the WiFi despite being told not to.
In simple terms, I want to use WiFi exclusively without mobile data switching itself on. I have not managed to do that.
Any ideas or suggestions?
have a good day
