Identify Wi-Fi connection as metered on Linux automatically
NetworkManager (NM) has implemented detection of metered connnection based on MS-NCT
protocol nearly same as Microsoft Windows does.
To implement metered connection detection, set cost level to 0x02
or 0x03
as described in Microsoft Windows article.
NM 1.31.5 and before has a bug in MS-NCT implementation because second Reserved
byte is used instead of Cost_Level
byte.
According to NM code, value of this byte must be greater than 0x01
to make NM think connection is metered.
According to [MS-NCT], the byte used by NM SHOULD always be 0x00, so it may cause compatibility errors, so you can change it on your own risk.
DD 08 00 50 F2 11 02 00 02 00 ^ | Only this byte is taken into account by NM
