Auto restart M1?

Hi!

Is there any way to get an automatic restart of the M1 router regulary?

It seems to be needing that once a while to regain speed. I am using it 24/7.

Regards

There was a script to do this, somewhere.  You run it on a PC or router that connects to the Nighthawk.  Search the forums here.

Ok, thanks!

Could not find any such script here. Was if for M1 specifically or general?

Does it change any settings in the M1 or does it need to run from a PC? I need something that is automatic in the modem itself, seldom use my laptop here and if so I can restart manually.

Regards

Here it is:

You can run it as a Python script on a machine that is always on.  Or better yet, you can run it on a router that connects to your MR1100.

Thanks!

Unfortunately that's to complicatef for me, know nothing about python.

If the function isn't included in this router I'll live with that. My earlier Teltonika modem had a function to schedule restarts. The M1 is much faster though.

Regards

You could use a timer plug or smart plug, with no battery in the hotspot.
