RS700 turning off wifi -Firmware Version V1.0.7.96_2.0.96

Question

Ok, I can't find a way to shut down wifi.

If I can't shut down wifi, which a basic feature. Who determines the killing of a basic feature?

Never in a million years would I question if this router don't allowed me to shut down wifi before I spend my money on it! Why don't I have the basic feature to shut down wifi?

I need to shut down wifi without shutting down the whole router!

Who would think of eliminating a basic feature like that from an expensive router? I need to shut down wifi permanently. Not turning on again, period!

I can shut off my RS600 wifi Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings routers web page. Doesn't shut down the router portion, just wifi radios.
I resume its in the same location on the RS700 and all RS series models.&nbsp;

Nope.&nbsp; Not shutdown wifi.&nbsp; The only thing there is shut down by schedule, and that doesn't even work well either.Thanks for trying to help.&nbsp; Maybe your model has a different setup.

You don't see this on the routers Web page? MS Edge here...

Nope. it doesn't exist for me.&nbsp; The only thing in that webpage is the schedule to have it turn off by time.&nbsp; Imagine something basic like that and they eliminated for the RS700. An expensive router is missing a basic function.&nbsp; I have never seen something like that before.I have a BE19000 Tri-Band Wi-Fi 7 Gaming Router by Tp-Link and it has that function.&nbsp; If I knew RS700 didn't have it I would not have bothered with it, it was not mention so I got fooled into buying this missing a basic feature like turning off wifi.&nbsp; It is frustrating.&nbsp; I don't use wifi, I use ethernet and I get tired of people trying to sign into my wifi so I want to turn it off.&nbsp; I went into the router and it wasn't there!&nbsp; Who does that? Take a basic feature away?&nbsp; I guess Netgear does.
