Specific Router
Hello!
I work from home and would like to find a router or modem that will allow us to schedule when the WIFI is on and off (preferably on only a few hours a day when everyone is home), but also allow for ethernet connection for when the wifi is off. We just purchased a Netgear AC1750 and not only does it have terrible coverage, but it doesn't allow for ethernet to work when the WIFI is off, so obviously we'll be exchanging it very soon. We just recently switched to Century Link fiber, and I'm happy to provide any other needed details. I'd love to also have a button that allows us to manually turn the WIFI on and off, in addition to scheduling, but if we have to pick between this and scheduling, the scheduling is more important. Thank you for your help!
