Maybe I should use diald.conf for my BT connection

# Hour restriccions.
# This section must be before filters.
# The restrict command is experimental, and can change in other versions
# of diald. Check the man page. (this example has been checked for 0.16,
# but i think it runs in later versions).
# Example: only use in the night from monday to friday, and all day in
# saturday and sunday.
restrict 8:00:00 18:00:00 1-5 * *
down
restrict * * * * *

Has any one used this with a cron job to bring up the connection
