Set up a WiFi on/off schedule for an SSID
You can set up a WiFi on/off schedule. Scheduling an SSID to be turned off is a green
feature that allows you to turn off WiFi during scheduled vacations, office shutdowns,
on evenings, or on weekends. You can set up and manage a WiFi on/off schedule for
each SSID.
Before you enable and set up a WiFi on/off schedule, make sure that the time zone
settings are synchronized with your local time. For more information, see Manage the
date and time settings on page 97.
To set up a WiFi on/off schedule for an SSID:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is directly connected
over WiFi to the access point or connected to the same network as the access point.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
If you are directly connected to the “CONFIG-ONLY” SSID, you can enter
https://www.aplogin.net.
A login window displays.
If you do not know the IP address, see Find the IP address of the access point on
page 33. For more information about the “CONFIG-ONLY” SSID, see 2.4 GHz
