I have been trying, without success, to raise my 5MB data limit as I am already up to 3.21 MB after a few days of working with my new Electron.
I think I have finally worked out how to cut the data usage by 1) using the CLI to upload firm ware and 20 by NOT putting my Electron to sleep between sending data out. I was hoping to save some power by doing that, but the eelctron uses an alarming amount to data each time to starts up a nd logs in to the cell tower.
But my questions comes from after reading the following in the Billing Guide:
"You can set data limits on each SIM independently, see what your current limits are, and unpause SIMs in the Dashboard."
I have crawled all over the Dashboard but canāt seem to find a way to increase the data usage limit.
The only problem with using System.sleep now is that Particle.publish does not work reliably after it wakes up. The publishes just do not get sent. It has something to do with Cellular IP changing while your sleeping.
Does any one know how to increase the 5MB data limit?
All the answers are good info , but I really wanted to know how to increase the data limit, as I was aware that the sleep problem was being worked on.
Sorry...I cant find on Particle Console | Build your connected product "There's a '...' Icon for each sim." to click on... A picture would be worth a thousand words here...Sorry but I fell really dense right now.
