I’m able to turn off the cell connection on my CPAP with airplane mode. I have a ResMed AirSense 10 that I got 4+ years ago and in the “MyOptions” section it has an “Airplane Mode” menu item which can be set to “On” to turn off the cellular connection. I agree with all that you said about it reporting home and compliance. I also found it surprising how strict it was to be compliant. I needed a 2 or 3 month uninterrupted streak of 4 hour+ usage per night. I had to email the data to my insurance since I had it on airplane mode.

Yeah, I later learned about the airplane mode option. I would have used that, but at some point the screen on my CPAP (also a ResMed AirSense 10) smashed, so I was unable to engage airplane mode. I was able to get a copy of the ResScan software (intended for clinicians), which allowed me to adjust the pressure and other clinical settings, so I continued to use it (although it was incredibly inconvenient as it involved removing the SD card and using my PC). That's when I tried taking the machine apart and physically disconnecting the modem, but it wouldn't operate that way (and with no screen, I couldn't see if there was some simple dialog I had to dismiss to get it to work with no modem). Really, though, I don't think any of this should apply, as I paid cash out of pocket for both the doctor visits and the CPAP machine itself. No one had any legitimate claim to the data.
