I tried endless tweaks and finally gave up, switching the metered connection to off. I searched long and hard last year to locate a method to disable that Outlook warning / connection issue. I just don't have the time to get into that I want this device safe from intrusions, but with the least complicated solutions for that. I don't want to get too deep into this 'app,' as Glasswire has an available firewall which, if I activated it, would then possibly create conflicts with the Win Defender firewall. I did download a utility called Glasswire, GlassWire - Personal Firewall & Network Monitorwhich monitors network activity in real time, now I'll have to study how to interpret the readouts of activity shown in this software.

Since I can monitor my Internet data usage through software that came with the (satellite) modem, I'll just have to take the time to do that 2-3 times a month. I am going with your idea here, and I'm turning metering off. I concluded that there was no option but to turn off the metered property.ĭenisThank you. but do not that a later post in that thread said that it did not work. I found some claims about a solution - No method to disable Outlook 365 metered connection warning. This topic has definitely been raised before so you ought to be able to find some advice about it.

Try browsing the Office section of the forum My question is: Can I use a metered connection and Outlook at the same time? Or is there any reason to? I have modem software that allows me to monitor my usage. In case it might be a factor, I also installed AdBlock on my two browsers just after setting up the metered connection. So I turned the 'metered connection' feature off. I clicked there, but Outlook still would not download my email. This morning when I opened Outlook, I got a message about Outlook detecting a metered connection, with a box to click to ignore it. I did not open Outlook (2016) after that. Yesterday, wanting to see about monitoring and limiting my Internet data usage, I set my ethernet connection to the modem to a metered connection. Lately I have been running out of my data allowance (which resets once a month) 8-10 days before that reset. I have a satellite Internet connection with HughesNet. I'm using Win 10 Pro, with the 20H2 update. I've only posted here a few times, but I'm sure grateful for this Forum, lots of helpful tips and fixes! And I've been helped when I needed it.
