CLI tool to switch on/off the wifi module of a Compal cabelmodem (CH7465LG/Ziggo Connect Box)
Project description
Compal-Wifi-Switch
A command line tool to switch on/off the wifi sender of a Compal CH7465LG cablemodem.
Wifi radiation should be turned off if not used (better for your health and for IT security reasons). Unfortunattly the Compal CH7465LG cablemodem does not offer a physical button to switch on/off the wifi module. There is also no configuration possible to switch the wifi module on/off based on a time schedule (e.g. switch off during night).
The compal-wifi-switch tool can switch wifi on/off via a command line interface. The tool can be installed on a server where Python runtime is available (NAS, Raspberry Pi, etc.). To schedule compal-wifi-switch you can use cron or any other scheduling mechanism.
