Deja Dup metered connection problem

I am using Ubuntu 20.04.

When the time comes to auto-backup for Deja Dup (every night), I am having a notification something like "Backup delayed. It will start when an unmetered connection detected.". And there is no auto-backup if I don't do it manually.

My laptop is connected to my phone's unlimited internet via hotspot (as it does for years). What means "metered" and how can I fix it?

Thank you in advance.

Look in your network settings, click the cog icon for your connection and at the bottom should be a checkbox for Metered connection
