EX2700-100PAS Disable WiFi & use CAT 5 jack only?

Hi,

 

I'm looking to use this EX2700-100PAS device to connect an IP camera that only has a CAT 5 cable connection - no WiFi capability.  Since I have plenty of WiFi coverage, can I disable the WiFi extender capabilities of this extender to use only the CAT 5 jack? 

 

If so, how?

 

Thanks!

 

Steve

    Hello steve, 

     

    The router does not support access point mode therefore the WiFi capabilities will need to be left on the extender to use the ethernet port on the extender for a wired device.
