Most routers have a wifi button to turn on and off wifi.
Pick a router you're interested in then locate the manual and check it.

OK so....
i have followed comment that was said.
First I have realized that most of you are from Europe, me I am in Canada, the law are not the same and here in not a requirement to have an on/off WIFIbutton on the cover for the router.
I have done some research to be sure that all net gear rooter has an on/off button. I look at the model N150 and find a lot of places that said the N150 has this button. You can see it on this picture http://www.asbis.cz/netgear-n150-wifi-router-wifi-on-off-wps-and-power-button-cz-sk-hu-sl-ro-gui-_ies226001.jpg and I have seen it on other youtube review video.
I have ordered from Amazon.ca, https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B001UI4RTG?ref_=pe_1822470_153573050_E_Asin_Title. When I received it I was surprised to see that it did not have this feature. We can see in the picture that it is not there.
Is net gear having different standards for different countries ?
my new question is
What model in Canada has an on\off WIFI button ???

WNR1000V3 has the button from what I can see when referencing the Product Data sheet and it's picture.

Correct.
Unless Netgear makes crippled modems for Canada, it is clearly described on page 4 of the manual:
The button on the right-hand side at the front.

Definitely do not have those buttons on the router I have ordered.
maybe it is not the v3
I am into the return process with Amazon.ca
