RS700 - Disable 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz band
I would like to disable the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands on my RS700. I noticed that there is no option to do so in the settings. I tried disabling these bands by using the scheduler, but found that this do...
I've just bought the RS700 and I can confirm that its not possible to disabling the Wifi network, even using the latest firmware 1.0.7.86
The scheduler is not an optimal option, because it still forces the wifi station to be turned back on for half an hour every day.
At least, if the scheduler could be configured from minute to minute instead of from half hour to half hour it would certainly be much better
Couldn't you reintroduce the option to turn off wifi like in many other Netgear products?
It is quite surprising that for a product in this price range such basic options are lacking.
We've been seriously considering to add the radio on/off function to RS700, but I just cannot share the timeline for the release. As soon as we have the trial firmware available before the official release, I will post it here. Thanks.
Hi BH-C,
thank you for the response
I'm glad to hear that you are considering reintroducing the feature on the RS700.Let us know as soon as beta firmware is available.
Thanks.
