Hello ChristineT
Aware you are not in charge for new features or changed. However, this is a typical problem carried forward from the Nightawk routers to these Wireless Extenders: The AP mode is much to basic, features like wireless scheduling is not made available in AP mode. Beyond any common sense why such an Wireless Extender should have a working wireless scheduler in Wireless Extender mode (uplink by wireless), while the very same product does not have a wireless schedule if configured as an AP and connected by a wired connection.
Needless to say, the same problem exist on all the routers and Nighthawk which can be configured as Wireless AP.
I really don't understand on how such discrepancies can exist in what are supposed to be easy to deploy and consumer friendly devices. These product managers seem to sit on a diferent planet.
