R8000 wifi scheduler not working

I have a Nighthawk X6 R8000 with Firmware Version: V1.0.3.46_1.1.32

After the recent firmware upgrade the Wifi scheduler no longer works. Below are the steps I took to troubleshoot the problem:

1. Reboot router

2. Went into routerlogin.net site

3. Under Advanced Setup - Wireless Settings

4. Put check mark next to -Turn off wireless signal by schedule - added a time window

The router will not disable the wifi regardless of what schedule I put in. I even went so far as performing a router reset and got the same result.

Hi Toan,

Check the time of the router, make sure it is same as your time. You can check it under schedule.

  It's working correctly after the time zone change as you indicated.
