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. It reduces the power
consumption of the FRITZ!Box by completely turning off the
WLAN module. The FRITZ!Box schedule also affects any other
FRITZ!Box products connected in the network (the
FRITZ!WLAN Repeater, for instance): the wireless transmis-
sion of these devices is also switched on and off in the
FRITZ!Box settings.
