Want a Reboot schedule feature for RAX40

Unlike other router firmware, the RAX40 does not have an option to schedule a regular reboot.  I think this is a great feature to have and can help keep the router "clear" and operating well.   Please add a reboot schedule feature, so I can schedule a reboot such as every Saturday morning at 4:00 am.

  • I was just looking for this feature myself but could not find it.  Due to constant drops of the Internet Signal with this Router, a Scheduled Reboot would seem to helpful instead of just waiting for the signal to be lost to then have to reboot it anyway. I woke up this morning to people complaining that there was no Internet Signal.  I reboot the router and it will work fine for few hours until it drops again.  Please consider adding this feature until the signal loss issue with the Rax40 is permanently resolved.  This issue is really frustrating and unpredictable. 

  • Please add this feature... I've purchased 30 dollar routers that have this feature in the firmware... I am actually shocked it isn't available in such an "advanced" router.

  • Please netgear give my old router some basic features such as a reboot schedule. Better yet please opensource to dd-wrt / openwrt if not supporting anymore. This will likely be my last netgear router after this experience.
