AX6000 Tri-Band Orbi Pro WiFi 6 - 24/7 network access, Scheduled-only internet access

AX6000 Tri-Band Orbi Pro WiFi 6. Firmware V3.2.3.100.

 

I have one LAN dedicated to my NAS. I would like 24/7 internal network access to this LAN, but I would only like this LAN to connect to the internet at scheduled times to update the NAS firmware and for backups. All other LANs need internet access 24/7.

 

Any ideas if this is possible? Thanks.

      JasperC,

       

      As per checking the user manual of the Orbi Pro WiFi 6 here, it seems that there is no option to set a LAN with a scheduled time for internet access.  

       

      What is the brand/model of your NAS?  Its possible that on your NAS, there are settings for backup schedule and schedule the updates.

       

       

      Regards,

        Yes, that is the correct link user manual for my model number. I didn't see an option either. I was hoping I was missing something, but regrettably no. Bummer.
