Switching the Wireless Radio Network On and
Off by Schedule
You can configure a schedule for times at which the wireless
network of the FRITZ!Box is to be turned on and off automati-
cally. This reduces the power consumption of the FRITZ!Box.
The FRITZ!Box schedule also affects any other AVM products
connected in the network, the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater, for in-
stance: the radio network of these devices is also switched
on and off for the specified times.
1.
Open the FRITZ!Box user interface.
2.
Open the “WLAN / Schedule” menu.
3.
Enable the schedule for the wireless radio network.
4.
Configure the settings for the schedule:
–
With the options “Switch off wireless LAN daily” and
“Switch off wireless LAN according to schedule” you
define the intervals for switching.
–
You can also enable the option “The radio network
cannot be switched off until no more wireless LAN
devices are active”.
5.
Click “Apply” to save your settings.
Now the schedule of the FRITZ!Box is enabled and configured.
In the Help of the FRITZ!Box user interface you can find de-
