Schedule a WAN connection to be "OFF" at specific times was created by fritserasmus
I am using a Vigor2830Vn Dual Band (Firmware Version : 3.6.3_db_232201) and would like to schedule my WAN2 line to go "OFF" / DROP between say 10PM and 05AM.
WAN1 is not in use. I am using a 3G in WAN3 as backup connection for WAN2. I have a free 3G bandwydth between these hours and have scheduled downloads between these hours, but I need to "turn off" WAN2 during these hours so WAN3 can kick in as backup.
Under the details page of Internet Access there is a "Index in Schedule Setup"
Can I schedule a "FORCE DOWN" here for 10PM and a FORCE UP" for 05AM? Will that force LAN2 to go "DOWN" between 10PM and 05AM?
Anyone that has tried this or someone that knows how to achieve what I need to?
Thanking in advance for your inputs
Kind Regards
Frits

Hi ... of course come back to your thread if anyone has tried this feature(me Not yet) but why don't you give a go?
From the user manual V2.0 ...if helps you ... you have to do additional work at Applications>>Schedule (set values there first) ... before you set the schedule at Internet Access with seems is allowing to add only one digit and not time

Index (1-15) in Schedule Setup- You can type in four sets of time schedule for your request. All the schedules can be set previously in Applications >> Schedule web page and you can use the number that you have set in that web page.

Babis3,
That is what I wanted to use and I have tried to schedule a reboot before, but I was not successful, hence the reason I posted this question to see if I understand the "Scheduling" part correct.
I will give it a go next week and report back.
:wink:

For anyone that wanted to know:
I tried to force down the different WANs and it works a charm.
So I was able to use a specific wan connection between certain hours and another for other times.
I am still unable to use the -> schedule to "reboot" the router at specific times. - I will create a new thread on this issue
So please close this post.
