8800NL Time Restriction Problems

8800NL with 2.32e

I tried setting time restrictions for several Mac addresses but it seems that this does not work as expected.

Having two teenagers I want to restrict their access from 22:00 to 07:30 every day so I ticked each day and then entered 22:00 start, 07:30 end

I was unable to do this as the start time is greater than the end time!

So it seems that I cannot set a restricted time period and then apply it to each selected day. Maybe I am not using this properly but if this is the case can there be a fix for this in the next release?

And if so, how soon can this be implemented please?

Thanks

Have you tried creating two sets of rules: one for 22:00 to 23:59 every day and one for 00:00 to 07:30 every day?

No, that is a good idea. Thanks :)

I'll give it a try and let you know what happens.

Setting up the two rules per mac address worked well, so many thanks for the suggestion.

It is a pain adding in two rules per device when there are quite a few devices to control on the network.

Is there any chance that Billion can improve this functionality in the future?

Thanks
