Hi all.
I have Plex media server running on my PC that is connected to my Telecom provided TG589vn v2 modem. My Chromecast is also connected to this.
I stream from Plex to the Chromecast using the Android app. When I am choosing the content to watch my phone is also on the wifi from the TG589.
All of the data streamed like this is counting against my cap. How can I diagnose/ fix this?
I have come across others who have found their router counts local traffic against their data cap. Surely this isn't happening here.
Also this person who has the same issue but no solution.
The Chromecast doesn't work at all when it cannot connect to the internet so I can't just unplug it and try stream.
Any help would be appreciated.
