【RouterOS】—— How to schedule wireless

角色

Source : http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=63139

Had a requirement to set the wireless radio on a RB751U to switch on and off at certain times.
E.g. On during business hours only (07:00 - 17:00)

The simplest solution was to use the scheduler to enable and disable the radio at the required times.
However, if the router was powered off sometime during the night in this example and only switched on after the 07:00 ON time, the scheduler ON time event, would never happen and the radio would remain off.

This script checks at whatever scheduled intervals the user requires, if the radio is supposed to be ON or OFF and then sets it accordingly.

It could be adapted for example to enable and disable your 3G modem WAN link, if you only wanted the router to have an active internet connection for certain time periods for example.

1. # Script to ensure wireless lan radio is ON or OFF #
   
2. # between user selected times #
   
3. # The radio ON/OFF operation will not be performed if the system #
   
4. # clock is not in sync with local time, unless so required #
   
5. # Remember router is set back to default time after a reboot #
   
6. # Schedule this script at required intervals #

How to make it for "Mikrotik hAP AC - RB962UiGS-5HacT2HnT"
dual wireless ...?

角色

Just select the wireless that you want. Both wireless interfaces can be used at the same time.

It get error ...
Need to change line 22?
I changed but get error

I mis-interpreted your message. The code that I just copied from other website. The script is, I believe, applicable to single wireless interface. You need to modify it if you are able to do so for dual wireless interfaces.

carlchan

Finally , I use the following with Scheduler:

:log info "Wireless , now switching ON";
/interface enable "wlan-2G";
/interface enable "wlan-5G";

:log info "Wireless , now switching OFF";
/interface disable "wlan-2G";
/interface disable "wlan-5G";

Thanks you very much for your information.

You meant you have two scripts running at different scheduled time interval, right?
