WiFi scheduling allows you to configure when a WiFi network may be used. This is done by automatically turning on and off an SSID based on a custom weekly schedule. For instance, it can be used to set up parental control on WiFi, to ensure guest networks are only available during business hours or avoid malicious usage while a business is closed.
WiFi scheduling requires a network to be configured with firmware version 3.5 or newer.
