Question

Hello everyone, I am a new happy user of RUT955

I have been searching without finding,  how to automatically switch off rut955 (WiFi and LTE) during the night and turn it on at morning time.

I have created an RF_OFF profile but cannot find how to turn off the Mobile Radio:  any solution?

Thanks!

Hello,

You could utilize crontab functionality to automate periodic switching of mobile and wifi. For more details on how to configure and set up crontabs, please refer to this page. 

The specific commands to execute are below:

• Disable mobile and Wifi:
  • ubus call network.interface.mob1s1a1 down
  • /sbin/wifi down
• Enable mobile and Wifi:
  • ubus call network.interface.mob1s1a1 up
  • /sbin/wifi up

Best regards,

I edited crontab adding 

45 00 * * 1-7 ubus call network.interface.mob1s1a1 down
45 00 * * 1-7 ubus call network.interface.mob1s2a1 down
45 00 * * 1-7 /sbin/wifi down
45 05 * * 1-7 ubus call network.interface.mob1s1a1 up
45 05 * * 1-7 ubus call network.interface.mob1s2a1 up
45 05 * * 1-7 /sbin/wifi up

It works perfectly: thanks, @ZYGIMANTASBLIU!
