    Hi Christian, found the setting ‚Daten im Heimnetzwerk‘, sounded to me as something around local wifi at home, hence I never played with that.

    Toggling this disables Mobile Data - exactly what I wanted !!

     

    connecting to a wifi with mobile data disabled works, but the network diagramm of the App shows LTE not connected (correct) and Wifi  not connected as well ( not correct ). 

    The display on the router itself shows lTE not connected, but Wifi connectd ( which is correct )

     

    its a bit misleading, but seems to work. A bit disappointing that Network support has no idea and clearly told me on the phone ‘not possible’

     

    many thx for your help
