Can I throttle my own connection?
I have Ultimate 500 connection but some of my devices are data hogs which results in data overages. I have a panoramic gateway. Is it possible to manually throttle a specific device on my network?

No you cannot throttle, but what you CAN do is using the Cox Panoramic gateway software is you can set time limits on connections, and limit the amount of time a device can remain connected. Other than that, if you are streaming, be aware, that can use a LOT of data, and you may want to look at the add 500 or unlimited package if you are in an area that limits data.
I have been using the schedules for down time on my work computer. It works nicely. One of the features that I like about the gateway. I hear ya on the streaming. These UHD movies and shows are taxing.
A 4K movie on netflix can use over 8gb an hr. so, an 90 minute movie, 12gb. 2 in a day, 24gigs of data, an you haven't even read your email! LOL:.
