Use schedule on one channel on R6400 router

I am not interested in paying a subscription for an app from Disney.  I am interested in being able to control the 2 channels that I have on my exisitng router.  I want the one channel to be on a schedule and the other one I dont.  Is this possible.

Thank you

    Hi Gregthree3,

     

    Welcome to the community!

     

    Yes, you can schedule the wireless radios of either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz bands. You may refer to page 124 of the user manual linked below:

    Note that not all wireless devices can detect and connect to the 5GHz band. Make sure that the devices you are planning to connect to the 5GHz band do support it.

      Thank you.  I did not see that section.  I went to the Security Tab and schedule instead. I see what it is doing and that will satisfy my needs.
