Disable WiFi & Bluetooth during certain times of day
I recently upgraded from a Droid RAZR 2012 to a Samsung S5. One feature I had with the RAZR that I haven't figured out how to duplicate with my S5 was something called "Smart Actions". With this feature, I was able to set times of the day where my WiFi and Bluetooth would turn off since I don't need them during most days. Is there some way to do the same with my S5?
Search for TecTiles 2. You can program the tiles, and put one on the dash of your car, like a sticker, to toggle those radios off when you tap them via the nfc in your phone. The app is in Galaxy Essentials, or the Play Store, but you'll have to order the NFC tiles from amazon or something.

MS spiking at certain times of day, World of warcr...
My MS keeps spiking really high during certain times of day lasting for between 30 minutes and 2 hours. It sometimes goes as high as over 3000 which makes gaming literally impossible.
I've done a pathing ping just now at gone 11PM with these results

This result is actually one of a few good ones, others have been much higher.
Why does it do this?I been having this issue for close to 6 months now
Had engineers out/conntacted BT support ect.Appranrtly nothing is wrong according to them,but gaming online is immposible between 4pm--11pm for me.
Im postive it to do with traffic shaping/routing on the BT network.
Bt is a particilarly bad ISP if your a gamer tbh -
Update Podcasts at a certain time of day
My ISP limits bandwidth during certain times of the day, and if I exceed a quota during the restricted hours, my connection speed is lowered. Is there a way to set iTunes to check for podcast updates / purchases at a user specified time of day?
I'm looking for the solution to this issue too. Once or twice, a full system restart has seemed to solve the problem temporarily but it slips back to an afternoon refresh after a few days.
Seems like it would be simple for Apple to allow us to specify a time of day for refreshes in the preferences section. -

You can use lauchd to run the script.
Here's an example of an Automator App that I have scheduled to run at 7am daily:
You would save this as com.yourname.plist and put it the the Folder: ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ (then log out and back in, or reboot)
(To run a workflow, change open to automator)
(A nice GUI launchd editor is Lingon)

How can I remedy losing my wifi signal a hundred times a day at least?
HOw can I remedy losing my wifi signal a hundred times a day?
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

I've been struggling with this problem for a bit.
I want the computer to sleep every night at 11pm, and wake every day at 9am.
I've set the times in the power saving preferences panel. No problem. However, at 19:42 every day, I'm told that the computer is scheduled to shut down, and do I REALLY want to do that? Of course I don't, so I cancel.
It wakes up pretty reliably at 9am, I'm pretty sure, but of course I have to put it to sleep myself.
I tried unchecking both items and quitting preferences, then coming back in, and the times are set back to 12:00AM. Then I set them to the times I want.
I THINK it might work for a little while after that, but then go back to this odd behaviour of trying to go to sleep at what seems to be an arbitrary time, though it's the SAME arbitrary time every day. :/

Automatic disabling of central CCMS alert during certain times
Hi,
I have setup the availability monitoring on our instances and alert are sent via email when a system goes up or down.
We take offline snap backups of many of these systems at specific times every week. This creates emails alerting us to the system unavailability.
Is there any easy way of scheduling these alerts not to be triggered during during these times?
Thanks,
AdriaanHi Adriaan,
in transasction GRMG you can schedule 'monitoring pauses' both manually & scheduled automatically - to my knowledge, alerts will be disabled for these pauses.

How to disable internet at a certain time for certain computers?? (kinda like a parental control)
We have a WRT54G and we all connect to the router wirelessly. The router has to be downstairs because our modem also has to be downstairs. We have digital phone so our phone has to be connected to the modem, which is why i cannot connect physically with an ethernet cable.
I have a little brother and a little sister and i have to control their internet because i see them awake in their rooms surfing the net. I see that i can disable "wireless internet connection" or create a policy disabling the internet at certain days and times at 192.168.blah.blah. But i just want to create a policy for my sister and brother's connection and not mine. I'm afraid if i create a policy, it may also disable my connection to.
Help please.
Thanks.You will need the IP addresses and MAC address for the computers you want to block. You will find this information under DHCP table.
In Access Restrictions set a policy name and set status to enable. Input your computers info in Edit lists of PCs. Now set your days and times.
The system works between 12 am to 11:59 pm You can allow Internet from say 6 am to 11 pm but you cannot deny from 11 pm to 6 am.
If you have any problems download userguide for your router.

Is it possible to search for message sent only during certain hours of the day?
At a minimum, the ability to see either AM or PM messages, and even better if you could limit search results to a range of hours of the day [e.g. messages sent between 8 PM and 11 PM].
I have not been able to find this documented online anywhere. Thank you!Is it possible to search for message sent only during certain hours of the day?

Run a section of code a certain time of day
I have a problem which I am stuggeling to get right.
At a certain time of the day, the process must run a verification sequence which must be completed.
I was thinking about using two time values, the one being the actual time and the other being the target time. Once the actual time is equal or more than the target time, some code must run. This code must run (verification sequence) before any other code can run.
Please any advice would greatly be appreciatedLucither wrote:
Hein,
This will be true when current time is equal or greater then the set time:
Rgs,
Lucither
The suggestion above are correct in answer the question "how to compare times?" but there is an ancillary question that goes with this challenge that being "What time value do I compare with the current time?"
Sounds simple at first glance and in most situations is a no-brainer UNLESS your app is a 24X7 365 day never go down app. In that case you have to deal with Daylight savings time (Lets ignore leap years seconds etc for now). With DST, we have to deal with the fact that there is one day with 23 hours and another day with 25 hours. One of those days does not have a "2 O-clock" times and the other has two, one with DST true and another with DST false. The other complication that coes with that fact is that (in the US at least) the dates on which those 23 and 25 hour days occur are defined by the whims of governement ("Those who seek to change times and way.." Is that reveleations?) so you can't code for changes ahead of time.
If you get past that challenge, the other thing to take note of is that Windows displays the creation date of files in the current time (DST T/F) so a file created at 1:00 last night may have a creation time of 2:00.
I hope you don't have to deal with DST and if you do, at least you have been warned.

DVR menu stalls out during certain times of the day
Lately when I am trying to play or record a show from my DVR, I find that the menu stalls out and I am hitting the "OK" button to the point where my wrist hurts. I have turned the box off for a while, but it doesn't help. I find this only happens in the early morning or in the middle of the night. I watch my shows at those times as I am feeding a newborn baby. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks.
the motorolla boxes are notorious for this... I have seen it with Verizon and Time Warner
Have you tried simply unpluging the power from the box for a minute or so?
If not, try that
If need be, unplug the power to the box, unscrew the COAX from the box to the wall, and check the pin in the middle to make sure it is not bent or broken... Do the same at the wall jack, if applicable... If all is well, plug it all back up, turn it on and test it out
IF it continues, call Technical Support at 1 888 553 1555

Allow RDS Logon during Specific time of day
Is there a way that we restrict Logon to our Terminal Server so that users can only Logon between specific times...?
We are using windows Server 2008 R2
for example between 8AM and 6PMYou could set up a scheduled task to enable drain mode on the server which will prevent new logons (but not reconnections), This task woud set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\TSServerDrainMode to 2. No new sessions
could be started but disconnected users could reconnect. Admins ca still connect by running
mstsc /admin. Then you would need another scheduled task to disable drain mode, by settinge the above key back to 0.

Blackberry Messenger only works at certain times of day.
a few days ago my phone crashed, leaving my blackberry messanger not working, a few hours later it started up and everything was fine, however the next day my bbm only worked early in the morning and then started up again around 4, and its did it again this morning, i have restarted it many times, i have deleted it then reinstalled it, its just very annoying it doesnt work, and im not really sure what to do with it
any help would be much appreciatedElla, that's got to be some intermittent connect with your mobile provider.
The next time your BBMessenger is NOT working, check On your Manage Connections screen, click on the Services Status. What is the status of the BlackBerry Internet Service at that time?
ALSO: You have your mobile phone number listed as your "My Mobile Provider" or carrier. Putting your phone number out on the internet on these public forums for the world to see, is not wise. To change that, at the top of this page click on My Settings > Personal Profile > Personal Information, and in the entry block for "Carrier" type the name of your mobile provider.

Slowed dsl at certain times of day and weekends
For the past two months I've noticed that my speeds drop to 1Mb (normally I get 6.5 or better) from around 4:30pm to about midnight weekdays and all day on the weekends. Verizon tech support has been out twice and coming back again on monday but they cannot send someone at the time the problem is occuring so they never see an issue. I just read that this problem could be the result of overload on the Edge router. I'd like to request to be moved to a new edge router. I work from home and refuse to continue to pay for DSL speeds I'm not getting. Despite the added expense, I may be forced to switch to comcast.
Solved!
Go to Solution.Try the Verizon Direct forum over at DSLReports. Let them know of the situation and they should be able to move you onto another edge router or some less congested equipment.
