Whitelist of wifi networks #27

Open joel-porquet opened 6 years ago

joel-porquet commented 6 years ago

It'd be great to be able to define a list of wifi networks for which the client is authorized to perform synchronization. It happens sometimes that I tether my phone to my laptop through wifi and I'd prefer not to have big data transfer from nextcloud during that time. From now, I manually pause the synchronization but ideally it'd be very convenient to just define which wifi networks are OK for sync (this way, all other wifi networks - such as in airports, coffee shops, etc.- would be deactivated by default). Thanks!

There is very affordable existing software out there that blocks traffic on tethered connections: https://www.tripmode.ch/

Would be interesting for file sync with local servers if it was dictated by network.
