R7000 WiFi schedule issues

I have the scheduler enabled.  Every morning I have to maually turn on router.  I then login and go to the "Advanced" tab, I select "Advanced Setup", "Wireless Settings."  Then log-in go in and reselect "enable wireless router radio" and select apply.  The next day this "enable wireless router radio" is unselected.  This is what I do EVERY morning.  My time zone is correct, the "turn off wireless router by schedule" is selected and the schedule to turn off is 11:00 p.m. - 6:00 a.m.  Why am I having to go in daily to select "enable wireless router radio"?

      teckart  R7000 firmware version? Time zone and DST config correct? I'm a little hesitant to push towards the latest firmware as this is known problematic (nicely said). If basic features like these schedules simply don't work, ChristineT  Christian_R  where is Netgears QA?

      Moderators can move threads easily - much better than having lots of duplicate if people re-post in other sections, and mods are moving things later on. However, the moderators are not really on full duty - same applies to the (not) banning and handling of Spam and Scam.
