My goal is to get the N900 to check for updates every 24 hours in the middle of the night, instead of the afternoon. I don't want to disable automatic updates.

I tried setting last-update to a Unix time 24 hours before I want the automatic check, but it still checks for updates in the afternoon. I made sure the Unix time is the time I want in my timezone.

I have also tried manually pressing update when I want it to, but it won't automatically check 24 hours later. It will do it again in the afternoon.

Has anyone successfully changed the time when updates are checked?
