A script that automatically turns the wifi-AP off and on, depending on the wifi-client connection

#!/bin/sh /etc/rc.common
START=99
start() {
testip=$(route -n | awk '/UG/ {print $2}')
sleep 60
while (true)
do
kol=$(ping -c 3 $testip | grep "received" | awk '{print $4}')
if [ $kol == 0 ]
then
ifconfig ra0 up
else
ifconfig ra0 down
fi
sleep 60
done
}
stop() {
ifconfig ra0 up
}

I've added ethernet to wifi-client bridge.
Throughput is about 50 MBit

To start/stop wifi-ap execute
ifconfig ra0 up
ifconfig ra0 down

@Stefano-P. said in How to disable AP?:

Hi guys, I wanna know if it is possible to disable AP through command line.

1. Install Firmware 183.

2. Edit file /etc/config/wireless download example

3. Edit file /etc/config/network download example

4. A few seconds after the booting execute
   ifconfig ra0 down

The AP is turned off. Internet continues to work.
