Just disable and turn OFF the wifi radios ON the modem. The modem portion is still needed to interface with your ISP services.
- PittroAug 31, 2018AspirantOk.. to do that there's a switch in front of the CradlePoint modem must be where the wi-fi symbol is right ?
- PittroAug 31, 2018AspirantAlso when I'm done and want to bring my orbi wi-fi system back home I should have no problem rehooking it up right?

You'll need to contact your ISP or the mfr of the modem to find out how to exactly disable the wifi on the modem. There maybe a user manual as well. Maybe a phsycial switch or someting in the modems web page.
Good Luck.
