Time-of-Day limits on Guest access

[WallaWallah]

Is there some way to put time-of-day restrictions on guest access, such as permitting it only from 9am to 5pm?

The easiest way I know how to do this, which is not very flexible, is to setup Parental Controls for each device that'll use the guest network...

Create two scripts:
guest_wifi_start.sh

#!/bin/sh

Example is for wl0.1 (Guest Network 1 2,4Ghz)

Create cronjobs with help of init-start script

init-start

cru a Start-Guest-WIFI "00 09 * * * /jffs/scripts/guest_wifi_start.sh"
cru a Stop-Guest-WIFI "00 17 * * * /jffs/scripts/guest_wifi_stop.sh"

Place all (three) scripts in /jffs/scripts.
Don't forget to chmod a+rx /jffs/scripts/*

After rebooting the router guest wifi starts and stops.
