I have a Verizon MiFi Jetpack for our internet usage and WiFi. It works fine and we don't have any complaints about it, but I am having a serious issue with how much data it's using. Randomly during the day when we are not here, early in the morning when we are asleep and late at night, my account says I've used half a gig of data or more. At first we where told that we need to keep our Ipads in airplane mode and not allow them to connect to the cloud because they never stop sending data when they are turned on. I just got off the phone with customer support and they said that there is no way for them to know what is using all the data because of all the apps out there and what they are doing. Their suggestion is to turn off the MiFi Jetpack when we are not using it. Seems simple enough, and what I'm going to do.
Does this make sense? Is there some way to eliminate or stop our Ipads from sending data, even when they are in airplane mode?
Could the MiFi Jetpack itself be doing this? Karen thinks that it is sending data on it's own, or that it gets caught up in some sort of cycling mode where it's trying to connect to one of our devices and sending data trying to make that connection.
Thank you,
Eddie
