How can I get my Diskstation to reboot automatically

I have a diskstation DS211j, which is storing video from a Y-Cam Bullet. However, if I leave it running for more than a week or so, it seems to stop recording video automatically, but it is OK once I have rebooted the diskstation.

Is there a way to schedule an automatic reboot of the diskstation every day, say at 9AM or something?

I tried the task scheduler, but it didn't manage to restart the diskstation after shutting it down.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Cheers,

Tony

Thanks for the reply. I tried this, setting the time off to be 12:10, and the time on to be 12:11. It turned off OK, but didn't turn itself back on again.

Am I doing something wrong?

Also, if your unit takes more than one minute to power down, your settings won't work

NAS: DS413 running DSM 6.0
