Turn offf router at night

If I continue to turn off my router at night, it will be harmful to the router or it will reduce the useful life?

There should be nothing wrong with food everyday bike. But if you're worried about Internet access devices in the night, many routers can be set up to cut Internet access on a schedule. This will save you the inconvenience of having to turn on every morning. In addition, devices can continue to communicate with each other via the home network. This could be useful if, for example, you have a network printer or hard drive for printing and files backup, respectively.

If you try to save on electricity, most of the routers will consume 10 to 40 watts. Assuming that the cost of electricity is $ 0.13 per kilowatt-hour (source: U.S. EIA), then a 40-watt $ 0,0052 / hour. It's a little more than 1/2 penny / hour or around 10 cents per night.

  • Automatically turn off notifications in night mode

    I just started using the SmartBand and I think it's great and especially function where you can take the SmartBand notify you of incoming e-mails etc but I have a problem/question.

    Is any way to have the SmartBand stop notify/buzzer indicating new emails etc when it is in night mode? Normally, I keep my phone in silent mode don't wake etc. received e-mails while you sleep at night, but I noticed that even if I have the laptop (a Sony Xperia Z2) silent vibrating SmartBand guard repeatedly wake up.

    Of course I could manually set SmartBand OFF notifications whenever I have go sleep and then re-enable notifications in the morning but would be nice if this can be automated, and to be honest I find it a bit weird why this isn't the default behavior because that love to be woken up in the middle of the night as soon as you receive an email etc...

    Many thanks in advance,

    Richard

    Thanks for your reply, but as I said in my first post I know that I can do it this way but I prefer having automated and fact is after doing a few tests now have the SmartBand in night mode, it is not vibrate even if I checked the notification option is great.

    Don't know why it did not work last night but the only thing I can think is that it was not in night mode, well I thought it was.

  • It is "possible to achieve endurance mode is automatically turned on in the night?

    Hello

    I send that updates in periodontal 30 minutes during the day (9-22)

    E-mail using the wifi and mobile data.

    If I use stamina mode all the time and add the e-mail application to the "white list".

    can endurance mode still stop wifi and mobile data during night (22-9)

    Or mode endurance can be activated automatically in the night so I wouldn't have to add the e-mail message to the white list.

    Activation of the manual mode endurance is not enough for me because I always forget to activate it.

    If there are good 3rd party application to do this it is an option but I prefer to use application own phones.

    Yes, you're right. Because you have configured the e-mail application at a frequency of between 9-22, ENDURANCE mode will be fully active when there is any further action on the email app. After 22, the email application do not have access to other connection and STAMINA mode will then cut the connection to the network.

    Unfortunately, there is nothing that you can check, but it's how the STAMINA mode is designed to work. When there is no application or similar who tries to access a connection, and the phone is in "standby mode" for 15 minutes, ENDURANCE mode will cut the connection.

  • UPS: turn off at Mac Pro every night

    I just bought a new power supply (UPS) uninterrupted and it comes with the option to transform the every night to save energy (after I stop the desk top Mac Pro).

    I searched the internet and Apple support communities and apparently there is no big advantage or disadvantage to stop the Mac Pro every night.  It does not harm the desk top, it allows to save some energy, and it makes it safe from hackers while I'm asleep.

    I can't find anything that tells me if there is a problem with completely set turned off power every night well.  Anyone know of any reason not to use "SHUT DOWN" and then turn off the UPS?  I guess the only difference it makes to the desk top Mac Pro is that it uses a battery to keep the current date and time.

    An overview of everything that will keep my Mac Pro (mid 2010) humming is greatly appreciated.

    It uses the battery to keep the current date and time.

    ... and to remember some system settings that must be available at the beginning of the start-up procedure, such as "where is the boot drive.

    If your Mac does not start, the battery is a Lithium long term non-powered cells of room behind the graphics card slot. It should measure about 3 Volts in your hand to be useful. BR2032 is what apple installed, CR2032 will work in a pinch. They are used in the door openers garage and car-door-keys.

  • My computer turns on once a week automatically during the night. How can I stop this from happening? Thanks Gunter

    Hello
    I bought a used desktop computer. After setting it up again to what I had before I find the computer comes on every Saturday night at the same time. How can I stop this from happening?
    If anyone has an answer for me please give him in singles and not "computer language".
    Thank you
    Gunter

    Your best course of action would be to do a complete new installation of Windows.  Not sure how this computer has been maintained or used.  She could have anything whatsoever thereon against malware of illegal material.

    Although the automatic turn on every Saturday night is probably trivial (for example, some application checking to see if there are updates), it could be malware "phone home" with your personal information (bank accounts, passwords, etc.).

    This TechNet article provided by 'Support' engineer is not likely to be useful for you.  For Windows XP (you posted your question in a Windows XP forum), open scheduled as follows:

    Click Start > click on all programs > point to Accessories > tap System Tools > and then click scheduled tasks.

    Review each of the tasks listed to determine what they are doing.  You can then decide if you want to remove one of them.  You should consider, however, that there may be other mechanisms that cause your computer turn on as you describe.

    I also tried to remove the battery, hold the power button for 30 seconds and then reconnect the power cord... Same laptop turns on but the screen is black.

    I tried to connect my laptop to my PC using a HDMI cable screen, but without success... Laptop turned on but monitor my pc showed nothing.

    I have not changed anything inside my computer laptop or unscrewed it.

    PS:
    Quite often, I kept my laptop on the bed/pillow it may have something to do with overheating or something.

    How did I get to this point:

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Long ago, I had similar problem on my old Satellite. CPU was faulty. After replacing the CPU, everything was OK again.
    I put t really know what to say.
    Maybe you should contact Toshiba and let check your laptop. They have diagnostic tools and may know what is the problem.

    What do you think?

  • Overnight battery discharged when the satellite has been turned off

    Hello

    This has happened again. My battery empties 25% from one day to the next and will be completely discharged in a week. The machine is not in hibernation, it is completely shut down. If I charge the battery and remove it from the machine it does not lose cool, which indicates a draining of the laptop. Any ideas?

    Hello

    Maybe this will help you a bit:

    I found this useful Toshiba paper on this topic:

    Battery drains 15-20% when it is turned off during the night
    http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB6B01N50013R01.htm

    This can happen if the wake on the service LAN (WOL) by the built-in LAN module is turned on

    Please check!

    -----------------------
    By the way; the loss of 2 to 4% of the power of the battery during the night is a normal state.

  • Cannot access the Router #2

    Here is a diagram of my home network.  This is what works.  If I have a device (phone or laptop) connected to the #2 router (wired or wireless), I can browse my network devices and browse the Internet without any problems.  My problem happens the other way.  For example, if I have a device (phone or laptop) connected to the #1 router (wired or wireless) I can see all network devices, with the exception of #2 router and all devices connected to it.

    Starting from a device connected to the Router 1 # I can ping LAN ports and Internet #1, #1 wireless bridge and Bridge #2 wireless router.  However, I can not ping the Internet port on the Router #2.  I guess it's a setting on Router #2 just don't have yet.   Here is a list of my equipment:

    Wireless routers are the two Linksys WRT 54 G

    Wireless bridges are the two Engenius ENS202

    Any ideas on why this is happening?

    Turn your router n ° 2 in a switch\repeater.

    Changes required for the installation of WRT610n:

    1. Change the SSID of the evocative wireless for the location. Ex: UpstairsWifi
    2. This must be done at the same time on the configuration screen, change the IP address of the router to 192.168.1.254 for you there is an IP address conflict with your main router, disable DHCP and save the settings
    3. Don't forget after that point that the internet port of the router is not to be used only the LAN ports
    4. If you need to reconfigure this router you would use it's new IP address in the browser "192.168.1.254".

    This means that your network IP addresses range starts with ' 192.168.1.. " If not the typical another range of IP addresses would begin by "192.168.0. * ' in which case the router's IP address must be changed to 192.168.0.254

  • Disorder of the WRT54G Wireless - G Router!

    I had problems with my internet connections for the last days. Initially, I called my ISP because I suddenly lost all connectivity. They told me to unplug the router and just connect my access directly from the modem cable to the Tower, since, on their side, they saw that I was connected to the internet and also had a router. They told me to leave the router disconnected for a few hours for the cache to eliminate because it did take in the change IP. So I did, and a few hours later, I've hung up and was back on the web. But I noticed a problem. There are a few sites that I have been unable to access. The taskbar would be simply read 'wait... '. "and then I get the problem loading Page telling me that the connection was reset, or that I had a firewall problem. I checked my firewall and security programs to ensure that my settings were allowing connections to these sites. Indeed, they are. I googled my problem "cannot access some Web sites" to see what I could do with little success. I remembered what the tech said on the router and took a suggestion from one of the tech sites to check another browser to see if it works there. Indeed, I met the same problem there. I plugged my connection from modem to the Tower again and I was able to access these sites once more. So I thought that it is a problem with my router. On top of that, wireless connections can be made. They're going through. I tried to restart the router again and used the disc that came with it to implement thinking it would help me. In addition, I accessed the site router to change the settings. Nothing has helped or worked. Hiding what ever is there is always here, or any problem with do not accept IP addresses is always present. I rebooted my system and I tried to access the router site again, only to be blocked as some other sites. I'm really worried here. I tried the command prompt and: ipconfig / flushdns version don't renew method still no good. Just what is wrong with my router? How can I get this resolved. Why are these inaccessible sites now and how to get what is mucking up the DNS recognition to clear and it can work properly again? I got it on DHCP so it can automatically recognize changes. My IP is not static. I'm really worried here. Help, please!

    I have it!

    Ok. I did two things:

    1. I changed my port (just in case).

    2. I did a hard reset on my router (did not notice the button next to the original cable entry).

    I put off the power to the modem, router and my PC. Then I turned on my modem, enabled on the router port, turned the router back, did a hard reset and he waited a bit. Then I turned on my PC.

    After that I did my own usual drive, consulted the web and done a clean cache of the browser (just in case). My little brother to come and do a test to see if it connects wireless to...

    ALTO! It's trendy!

    I tried the sites that I have problems with and SUCCESS! They connected!

    IT WORKS NOW! I am so happy!

    Thank you all for your help! It is appreciated!
