@DoctorEldritch our router doesn't support such a thing and when I searched for router can do this it's all high end or servers, is there an affordable way to do this?

[DoctorEldritch]

@DoctorEldritch I meant more by the "gentlemen's agreement" kind of thing, though I think there are apps that can help you track what internet was spent on, so you can see who used it more. Maybe someone with more technical knowledge like @Saka would know an example.

the problem is he doesn't know that he is consuming way more than me 😅
there's data usage addition on mobile but it's counting from the month's beginning to end, not our subscription month 😓

[DoctorEldritch]

@NadaGalal Maybe there is a way to adjust the dates to fit your schedule. Then you can tell him exactly how much he is using?

[Saka]

@NadaGalal if your brother is watching the streams or TikTok on Windows, set the connection as metered and set a data limit, that would reduce some background usage and send reminders when getting near the cap. Here's how to set the data limit.

Android also offers similar functionality, and you can actually change the date of the billing cycle, it is just not so easily found in the settings. Here's how.

I'll search for a third party app that can do such a thing as android system app is so restricted, and waiting for Saka to help if she could, thank you @DoctorEldritch and sorry if I bothered you with too much detail 😅😅

@Saka thanks for your effort and time🙏 I'll look for these settings on his mobile

[Saka]

@NadaGalal You can also look into making the phone turn off data after reaching the limit. If it isn't already on, I'd recommend turning 'Data Saver' on in the settings as well, it should be somewhere after going into the Network & internet settings.

@Saka Thank you for the technical advice. I am not as well versed in that, I am afraid. But from my side, I'd say after you sort out your internet usage with your brother by changing settings on his mobile, try playing Beholder. 😅
