Doh, Ok, so if we write something that detects Mobile DL’s on 7 you can trigger on BITS resume/start and set policy according if on on bad connection?

Think that should still apply even if there is a VPN on top?

We happen to use Nomad; but of course evaluate both.

We have a bunch of people with laptops that connect to us via VPN, and sometimes they might be connecting over a 3G card, which doesn’t have the best bandwidth. We would like to be able to say if laptop is coming in over 3G then either don’t patch or just download patches slow (BITS throttle). If they are coming in over some higher bandwidth pipe (e.g. cable modem at home) then patch and download patches quicker. I don’t really see any way of doing this. I think it’s all or nothing we could setup the VPN subnet as slow connection, enable BITS throttling for these specific laptops but whatever we set for BITS, let’s say 100K from 8AM-6PM it would also limit people who are coming in over their fast cable modem, so now they would also download patches slowly. I know you can do some more tweaking in regards to cost with Win8.1, but we’re all Win 7 laptops. Have others come across this and if so, what did you guys do? Thanks Rob
