Control the Wireless Radio
The router has an internal wireless radio that broadcasts signals in the 2.4 GHz range. By
default, this radio is on so that you can connect wirelessly to the router. When the wireless
radio is off, you can still use an Ethernet cable for a LAN connection to the router.
You can turn the wireless radio on and off with the WiFi On/Off button on the router, or you
can log in to the router and enable or disable the wireless radios. If you are close to the router,
it might be easier to press its WiFi On/Off button . If you are away from the router or
have already logged in, it might be easier to enable or disable the radios.
