Hi! I'm trying to deactivate the WiFi during night. I am using a TP-Link TL-1043ND.
I've added the following to the "additional cron jobs" field:

0 0 * * * root ifconfig ath0 down
1 0 * * * root iwconfig ath0 txpower off
0 6 * * * root ifconfig ath0 up

It should deactivate the Wifi at 0.00 and activate it at 6.00am
Seems to be working, however I am not sure whether this just deactivates the logical wifi unit or it actually deactivates the radiation.
Also the WiFi led is still on.

Any suggestions?
