m6 m6500 -- Any way to NOT have it power on upon usb-c charging cable connection?
On a m6 mr6500, how do you prevent the unit from powering on when I connect the charging cable? I do not want it to start providing wifi to my devices when I just need to charge it. It should only power on if I press the power button.
Is this possible?
Otherwise if I leave it plugged in in the car, I have to turn it off every ignition cycle. Very annoying.

Not that I know of.
Can we please consider this for a future firmware update? This is the worse experience I've had with this product. I want an option to power on/off via button, not cable connection.
Every time I charge it its wait for it to bootup and power off with button. VERY annoying.
