Netgear Nighthawk M2 WiFi enable schedule

I would like to enable the wireless schedule.

1. I went to the configuration page of my router: routerlogin.net

2. Logged in

3. Setting -> Security -> Schedule

4. Created a schedule: 5 a.m. to 9 p.m.

5. Clicked the enable tickbox and select apply from the bottom tab

 

The instructions here were outdated: https://kb.netgear.com/24102/How-do-I-set-up-the-wireless-schedule-on-my-Nighthawk-router#

 

But now after updating, it doesn't work as expected. The WiFi is not shutdown at 9 p.m..

I cannot find the option to change the timezone in this configuration page.

Shall I revert to an older firmware?

 

Current latest firmware version: NTGX24_10.17.08.00

    Hi JimmyMars, 

     

    Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

     

    Have you tried factory resetting the device? 

     

    The KB article that you posted is not applicable for Mobile routers. 

     

    For Nighthawk Mobile router, you can setup a schedule for Internet access. Here's a reference:
