Thread: Best way to download from 2am - 8am

I have a broadband BBG FN Combo 600 plan and I am a heavy downloader, I download approximate 60 GB per month. But to download I have to woke up at 2 am and start the download and the again to stop the download, I have to woke up at 8am. Is there any best way to download from 2am - 8am without hampering the sleep? :P
I know many users here download at night so I just request you to share your methods.

You can automate the whole process. Check this

Same condition here........

I also tried various methods but i am not able to download automatically at night...On software's like PC-Gyann,broadband scheduler my modem is not rebooting automatically. So, if i want to download i have to woke up at night..

Try bridge mode and use the batch file method.

Please use the " edit " button and delete repeated entries in your previous post.

Please tell me if i turn ON my modem at 10 pm and hibernate pc and by using Broadband scheduler 3.0 enable my local area connection on 2.30 am what will be happen?????? So, from 10 pm to 2.30 am my connection remains in disable state..I think bsnl starts counting my usage when i enable the connection.. Can i try this?????

Which mode are you using ? PPPoE or bridge ? If in PPPoE, even if you disable LAN, connection will be active.

here is very easy and simple way to automate ur downloads
Sarath Cholayil's Night Down-loader
just schedule modem reboot after 2 and little before 8 and u will have no problems !

Keep your connection in PPoE mode so that you can use the dialer and automate it.

Any free download manager will let you setup application/executable start/stop. Most of them will allow your modem to connect to BSNL too.

I use Free download manager for this (just google the exact words "free download manager", and it ends with a .org)

To actually kill torrents or other downloaders you can:

1) Use their own scheduler plugins
2) Use windows task scheduler to start batch scripts that kill the relevant processes [make a text file with the line "taskkill /F /IM uTorrent.exe", for say, killing utorrent : save it as kill_utorrent.bat; add this batch file to windows task scheduler]

To disconnect the internet at 7:55am, just use the above download manager or create a batch script to do this too (rasdial is the command for it).
