Batch file to start/stop wifi

Batch file to start/stop wifi was created by asimov

Hi,

I own a Vigor 2820vn. Is it possible to create a batch file that switch (start/stop) the wifi? Obviously, to use on my local network ;)

Thanks!

Have a look for "Telnet Scripting Tool" which can do batch files, then the commands on the router are:



Code:

> wl act on
% Set Wlan to Enable .

> wl act off
% Set Wlan to Disable .

Great. Thank you! I found the Telnet Commands pdf.

I don't find a command to know the status of the Wifi (enable/disable). Is there one?

The command that shows the WLAN status via telnet is "wl set"
