Control the Wireless Radios
The modem router has internal wireless radios that broadcast signals in the 2.4 GHz and 5
GHz range. By default, they are on so that you can connect wirelessly to the modem router.
When the wireless radios are off, you can still use an Ethernet cable for a LAN connection to
the modem router.
You can turn the wireless radios on and off with the WiFi On/Off button on the modem router,
or you can log in to the modem router and enable or disable the wireless radios. If you are
close to the modem router, it might be easier to press its WiFi On/Off button. If you are away
from the modem router or have already logged in it might be easier to enable or disable
them.You can also turn the WiFi radios off and on based on a schedule. (See
