12.3 Switching the Wireless Radio Network On and Off by Schedule
You can switch the wireless radio network of the FRITZ!Box
automatically according to a schedule. This function is called
“Night Service”. It reduces the power consumption of the
FRITZ!Box by completely turning off the WLAN module. The
FRITZ!Box Night Service also affects any other FRITZ!Box prod-
ucts connected in the network (the FRITZ!WLAN Repeater, for
instance): the wireless transmission of these devices is also
switched on and off in the FRITZ!Box settings.
1. Open the FRITZ!Box user interface (see page 26).
2. Open the “System / Night Service” menu.
3. Enable the schedule for the wireless radio network.
4. Configure the settings for Night Service:
– With the options “Switch WLAN off daily” and
“Switch WLAN off according to timetable” you define
the intervals for switching.
– You can also select the option “The radio network
cannot be switched off until no more wireless devices
are active”.
5. Click “Apply” to save your settings.
Now FRITZ!Box Night Service is enabled and configured.
Switching Wireless LAN On and Off
You can switch the wireless radio network of the FRITZ!Box on
and off at any time, even when the device is hibernating.
• Press the “WLAN” button on the FRITZ!Box briefly
