Disable wireless on Wireless Router
Netgear sent me a replacement router a FWG114Pv2 wireless router. My setup here is totally wired, nothing wireless at all.
Netgear sent me this router because they couldn't get a wired only one to work after 3 replacements.
Anyway when I first set it up it wouldn't connect to the internet so I foolishly thought that i might have to set the wireless part up as well.
After finally getting the router to work perfectly on my home LAN I now want to make sure that noone can access it via the wireless part.
Is there any way to disable the wireless part of this wireless router so that it will be a wired only router?
thanks

yes you can...
If you log on to your router
192.168.0.1
username -admin
password -password
(unless you have changed these)
on the main menu, click the Wireless link (under setup)
once there you will have the following display.
Wireless Network
Name (SSID)
Region
Channel
Current Channel No
Mode -
Wireless Access Point
Enable Wireless Access Point
Allow Broadcast of Name (SSID)
Just untick the box next to Enable Wireless Access Point
that will turn the wireless off.Last edited by MrRatt; February 3rd, 2006 at 07:19 AM. Reason: addition
