It would be very convenient to be able to select the operating times of the wi-fi even in access point mode, as well as extender.

I just got confirmation that on extenders it's still not possible to schedule the wifi (OFF/ON) as it's possible for instance on the XR1000 wifi6 router.Use case: if I have an expensive XR1000 + extender EX7700 it is kind of pointless being able to turn off the wifi on the XR1000 but not on the extender. The objective is to have no wifi signals whilst you sleep and with the extender this will not be possible therefore defeating the wifi being off on the router.
Either having the main router dictating the wifi schedule to the extenders or at least have a scheduler built-in into the extender (as standalone configuration) as is for the router. The preferred choice being the former.
Is there any plan for this feature to be introduced anytime soon?
Thanks
