Set Xfi Complete Modem/Router on Sleep Schedule

I’d like to configure my Xfi Complete modem/router to stop broadcasting all WiFi signals b/w 11 pm - 6 am.  I see that we can set sleep schedules for certain profiles.  But I’d prefer a complete shutdown of broadcasting.

is this possible with the Xfi equipment?  Or would I need to put that device in bridge mode a d use an alternate router?


Thank you

Thank you, @ for reaching out over our Community Forums! With Parental Controls you can setup time limits for access to the Gateway. The settings can be accessed in the admin tool of the Gateway, or from our Xfinity app. I have included some links below that may help!

Thank you for the reply.  I do appreciate the help.  These are great instructional articles to limit WiFi access by person and/or device. 

My question, however, is around the need to stop Wi-Fi broadcasting on a schedule, e.g., daily from midnight to 5 am.  Certain TP Link routers offer this feature (Archer A20).  But I would rather not add another device to our home network.  Is that not an available feature with Xfinity Xfi Complete routers?

You are more than welcome! The only scheduling option is currently based by the device on the network through the Parental Controls section with in xFi. You can manually turn off broadcasting for the entire network, however there is no current way to schedule the entire network to stop broadcasting, and then rebroadcast.
