SCCM Client unhealty

SCCM Client wasn’t registered in the SCCM Console anymore.

Reinstalled the client manually and noticed it showed up on the Console but after a day it was gone again.

The LocationServices.log shows the following error loop:

Windows noticed it was connected through a Wi-Fi LTE modem, so it set its connection as metered.

User had an unlimited data plan, so we disabled the ‘Metered connection’ setting under Windows Setting.

But changing the ‘Metered connection’ setting was not enough.

We also changed the local policy:

  • Computer Configuration/Policies/Administrative Templates/Network/WLAN Service/WLANMedia Cost
    Set Cost: Enabled, Unrestricted
  • Computer Configuration/Policies/Administrative Templates/Network/WWAN Service/WWAN Media Cost
    Set 3G Cost: Enabled, Unrestricted
  • Computer Configuration/Policies/Administrative Templates/Network/WWAN Service/WWAN Media Cost
    Set 4G Cost: Enabled, Unrestricted

Client is now healthy and operational again.
