Turn off wireless signal by schedule

Is it possible to turn off and turn on wifi signal on orbi devices (for exp. RBK50 model)? Or, if it isn't possible, can I turn off and turn on all orbi devices by schedule?

This menu is for setting a time schedule for site blocking and not for switching on and off wifi as FraNtg is asking.

FraNtg There is currently no such settings in Orbi. I saw a similar request on the Orbi feature request community page.

For now if you want to switch on and off the Orbi system on schedule you can use a wirelessly controlled power plugs as an example.
