•Enable Wireless Router Radio.

You can completely turn off the wireless portion of the wireless router. For example, if you use your notebook computer to wirelessly connect to your wireless router, and you take a business trip, you can turn off the wireless portion of the wireless router while you are traveling. Other members of your household who use computers connected to the wireless router via Ethernet cables can still use the wireless router. To do this, clear the Enable Wireless Router Radio check box on the Advanced Wireless Settings screen, and then click Apply.

The Fragmentation Threshold, CTS/RTS Threshold, and Preamble Mode options are reserved for wireless testing and advanced configuration only. Do not change these settings.
