Good afternoon Jezra, The reason we have tokens is to give or allow users to regain an operational state once they exceed their data allowance, not so much to make money. The data needs to be shared amongst all users to make the satellite keep on going.... To explain more, a while back one of our engineers wrote "The new Jupiter satellite came with a different operational model to handle more traffic. Launching a satellite to provide service takes a large and risky investment. In order to make the model work, it requires that we have enough customers to justify the expense. And in order to deliver a useful service, we need to ensure that each customer has fair access to that shared resource. We accomplish this by setting caps on the amount of data that can be downloaded at full speed in a certain period. Otherwise, a small number of bandwidth hogs would consume the entire satellite's capacity. So, just like you've seen your cell phone provider’s move to limited data plans, we also offer options to allow heavier users to pay for their share while keeping prices reasonable for the average user. Unlike the phone providers, however, we don't rack up expensive overage charges and shock you on your next bill. Instead, we allow you to make the choice to use or purchase a Restore Token. We are working hard on additional features and options to continue to make it easier to get the most out of your service. Nobody likes having limits on their service, but without them, your providers would need to charge much more than you would be willing to pay. We welcome your feedback on how you'd like to see things change, but unfortunately, there's no magic solution that will make caps go away completely." We actually took your suggestion directly to our development team yesterday and found that at this time there are no planned changes in the way tokens may be purchased or used. But, we are taking your suggestion under advisement for future consideration. Thank you again, Miles ... View more

Hello Bill, Yes, Sgoshe makes a good point to caution. This feature may only be available to the higher versions, such as the "Pro". From that link: "Enabling this option puts your Windows 10 PC on the “Current branch for business.” It’s intended for business users who want to wait a bit longer before getting new features on their PC" - "The Professional, Enterprise, and Education editions of Windows 10 all have the “Defer upgrades” option." Good stuff!! Thank you, Miles ... View more
