    There's a wifi on/off button on t he back of the router. You can push and hold it for 2 seconds to shut off wifi. 

    Otherwise, you can disable the radio if you log in through the browser and go to advanced tab---->advanced setup----->wireless settings. 

     

    You can find manuals here:
