There's a scheduler that allows you to set when to reboot/reconnect or execute a specific command (on the router).

Re: blocking msn, it does so successfully without blocking web access. You can block web-messenger within access restrictions easily too.

Haven't had any stability problems whatsoever, unlike DD-Wrt and official firmwares where I needed to regularly reboot.
