Wireless Schedule
« on: July 13, 2009, 11:54:03 PM »
Couldn't you allow wireless schedule to be a bit more flexible (accept more than 1 schedule) ? Right now it only allows one schedule which makes is almost useless for my case:

I wanted to make something like this:

On from 7:00 am to 9:30 am weekdays
On from 17:00 pm to 1:00 am weekdays
On from 7:30 am to 1:00 am Sunday/Saturday

Hi,

The OP has three "ON" time frames....sadly your choice is to also set up three "OFF" time frames/schedules and set all SIX schedules with the appropriate  LAN IP addresses.....

My router's bug-a-boo has been that the times can be declared as invalid and thus can't be set to begin with...other times are accepted with no issues.  It is very unpredictable.

If I remember right the 655 has an issue with wrapping around Midnight so to get something that starts before Midnight and ends after you need to use 2 rules to do this.  The first with the start time and ending at Midnight, the second being the same rule but starting at Midnight and ending at your end time.

I am having this same trouble with my 655.  The problem is more than wrap around midnight.  It won't accept a time from 12:01am to 5:00 am.
I want to create a simple schedule that allows me to shut off all internet access from 11:00 pm until 5:00 am.

I should be able to create 1 access rule using all (other) machines to block all access based on my schedule of 11:00 pm to 5:00 am.  It doesn't work because the router won't accept the time frame.

Any one have ideas to achieve this.

Hi,

This seems to be a definite bug in the FW...In case I didn't say that before. 8-)

I can't for the life of me figure out the limitations on the "Invalid Time" Error response when working wwith schedules....it verges on the absurd.

I have tried all sorts of combinations of times....occasionally somethign works, but if you try and repeat that very time, it then says "Invalid Time"....

Try going past your  5 AM start time....incrementally...minutes or chunks of minutes and see if something is accepted....

I am definetely experiencing this weird/absurd behaviour.  I deleted a schedule and then tried to re-enter the exact same data and it gave the invalid data message.

Hopefully D-Link can address this in a firmware upgrade soon.

It makes the whole feature set involving schedules to be useless.
