feature rewuest: Hotspot enable/disable on a time schedule

reinerotto · Wed Dec 31, 2008 8:15 pm

I would like to enable/disable the hotspot function on a timely basis, may be, even according to a simple calendar function, to make the use of the hotspot a bit more difficult for "unwelcome users" during the night etc.

schedule a wlan disable/enable?

In case, I would use wlan, this would be a possibility, thanx. But I am using a separate AP/switch on separate interface. Hm, but then I could schedule enable/disable this interface ....
Thanx for the hint, that should do the job for me.

I did configure a hotspot for a customer some time ago to do something like you perhaps are asking for.
This was a youth hostel where they wanted to disable hotspot access between (for the example here) 22:00 and 07:00 every day.
15 minutes before the "shutdown time" the hotspot status page changed to give a hint to the user about this.
Then at 22:00 the hotspot was shut down and users only got a page telling them about the operation times (07:00 to 22:00).
Finally, at 07:00 the hotspot was activated again...

This can be achieved using hotspot profiles, scripting and the scheduler. If you need further help, feel free to contact me

Hi Christian,

is there any chance we get some response from you or maybe some hints for the solution you´ve built or maybe the script snippets?
Please let us know.

Thanks in advance
andreas

Hi,

I'd also like to know how this was achieved.
