I have limits on my home’s internet data use, but not for the most part on my cellular plan. So I need our phones to use their cellular at all possible times and not my homes wifi internet. But I also have to keep wifi on, because I have tons of HomeKit and other devices that I need to stay connected with.
Advice how to wrangle this set-up?
phone side options or router side options?
I tried using my router parental settings and blocking my device from internet use, that doesn’t seem to work since the phone is bad at accepting the block and getting back to cellular for data. It randomly tries and fails to load stuff over wifi and gives errors.
iPhone has an option for not using cellular data, but no similar option for only using cellular data or preferring it, this is a failure my Apple
House set up:
2x iPhone 11 iOS14.3
Velop mesh triband wifi router
HomePod minis as hubs
