RBR850 SSID Cannot be disable.
It is very strange that N ETGEAR has removed the feature of Enabling/Disabling the SSID.
Enable/Disable of SSID is necessary and important feature for security reason.
Please NETGEAR bring this back.

NG removed Hidding SSID broadcasts on Orbi AX and AXE systems.
People have asked about this however NG seems to be keeping with there intended design.
