Bandwidth is provided to the connected devices based on the priority list. Also, a data reserve being less than a total recurring data cap is created. In response to determining a predefined data threshold has been met during a recurring period, non-critical functions of the connected devices are disabled for a remainder of the recurring period based on the priority list while allowing data communications with critical functions for the remainder of the recurring period.
