cru a RestartWan "45 09 * * * service restart_wan 0"
IIRC you need to quote the restart_wan parameter....so if it doesn't work as is, try

cru a RestartWan "45 09 * * * service \"restart_wan 0\""
 
Thank you, i have set the correct chmod permissions :
Code:
ced@RT-AC66U_B1-F600:/jffs/scripts# ls -l init-start
-rwxr-xr-x    1 ced      root            63 Jan 12 18:03 init-start

IIRC you need to quote the restart_wan parameter....so if it doesn't work as is, try

cru a RestartWan "45 09 * * * service \"restart_wan 0\""

About the correct syntax, I will try it directly in ssh/telnet to see if it trigger a reconnection :
Code:
service restart_wan 0
 
Hello,
The correct syntax was :
Code:
service restart_wan

service restart_wan 0 returned me an error (sort of) :
Code:
ced@RT-AC66U_B1-F600:/tmp/home/root# service restart_wan 0
Usage: service <action_service>

ced@RT-AC66U_B1-F600:/tmp/home/root# service restart_wan

Done.

If I haven't done a mistake with the script, it will do the work...
Thanks to everybody for all your help ;)

That's because as noted above you need to use quotes if the service command has more than one parameter. But as I mentioned restart_wan doesn't have any parameters because it restarts all WAN interfaces, whereas restart_wan_if does need the interface number as a parameter.

So the commands are:
service restart_wan
or
service "restart_wan_if 0"
 
Hello,
Sadly this script don't work, the command "service restart_wan" without quotes is working, I have tested it, but I probably have a syntax problem with the script :
Code:
#!/bin/sh
cru a RestartWan "45 09 * * * service restart_wan"

Or may be there is something to enable on the router web interface to allow script execution ?

Edit : Arf, in http://192.168.1.1/Advanced_System_Content.asp there is an option to enable the use of scripts : "Enable JFFS custom scripts and configs"
I enabled it to see if it change something :)
 
If you mean reboot it after I enabled the script option in Web interface, no, I will reboot it...
Thank you ;)
