India Broadband

I am using WA3002G4 in router mode. I would like to know if it is possible to switch-on/switch-off this via PC rather than using the button on modem. This way I can schedule my modem to switch on only when required (2 AM - 8AM) and hence avoid unnecessary bandwidth consumption at other times.

Basically, I want a bridge kind of connection on a router. Is it possible?

well i dont think your can SWITCH OFF and SWITCH ON after sometime.. but you sure can reboot your router from your computer..so you can reboot your router at 2:05am and 7:55am , so it would be free during that time.. is that what you are looking for?

buddy.. its possible... im using script for ut200r2u and it wont suitable for ur modem...

possible?switch off modem at say 5pm and switch it on again at 6pm? after an hour?thats possible?so for 1 hr the modem is completely off?

pls give the script here for ut200r2u

i am waiting for tht type of tool

yes sure.. as he is using bridge mode.. he can disconnect and connect na... hope i didnt misunderstand his requirement

yea.. connect and disconnect is possible, but i think this guy wants to completely power off and power on

yes karthik167 want completely power off and power on. me also waiting for that

i dont think thats possible.. i think even aruncse30 is talking only about connecting and disconnecting .. not complete power off ..if you are using bridged mode, then if you disconnect its more than enough,once you disconnect , you are not connected to the internet, so there is no way that your usage is counted..so the only thing whats going to be used is POWER(electricity) consumed by your modem..which is very less.. 12v

it's very unlikely that you can power off a modem/router by using some script.even a computer can't be completely turned off(even after you shutdown there still is power from UPS/mains into motherboard) without manually switching off the UPS.
