New firmware does not let us control wifi disablement

Hello,

 

I use Netgear Orbi model RBR750.

 

I have recently upgraded to latest firmware V4.6.9.11_2.3.5, and I no longer have the abilities to turn off wireless.

 

I have looked under "Advanced" -> "Wireless Settings".

Is there a way for me to disable Wifi in its entirety for Netgear Orbi RBR750 under latest firmware (as of time of this writing) ?

Searching through the archives led me to believe that there used to be a "telnet" interface and we can go into.

Is there a power-user mode that we can get in?

Rob

    Orbi AX has never supported disabling of wifi radios. Telnet was removed for security reasons by NG back in early v3 versions of FW.
