  • Hi Sandy,

    I’ve come across some clients where this policy doesn’t seem to work. I’ve checked the registry keys and confirmed that the values are set as expected.

    Client logs indicate that that the device is on a metred connection, when in reality it isn’t, it thinks it is on metered because there’s also a 4G connection – but that’s not being used.

    The only way I could get the clients to talk again is by turning off the cellular connection. Is there any way to work around this?

    Thank you.
