Answer 1

The solution I can think of is that you can try to use Xamarin.Essentials and check the profile of the connection, and use this to force the requests to your Wifi, and the other requests through cellular data

var profiles = Connectivity.ConnectionProfiles;
if (profiles.Contains(ConnectionProfile.WiFi))
{
    // Active Wi-Fi connection.
}
