Hello,

Is there a way to schedule WAN reconnect on daily basis?
Same what we have in GUI under Administration, but for router restart.

My ISP assigns new IP every 24 hours, which leads to WAN restart.
But those 24 hours are on paper, most of times it's few hours earlier, so in couple of days my WAN starts dropping in middle of day when we are using Internet.
I'm just searching way to force it to happen in middle of night, without rebooting router all the time.

Thank you.
 
You might be able to do it using the service restart_wan command. You'd have to schedule the time by putting a cru statement in services-start.
 
Thank you!
This works for 4 am connection restart:
Code:
cru a resetconn "0 4 * * * service restart_wan"
