Router - TG582N - WiFi
Disable Wifi (Wireless)
Via HTTP interface - Home Network - WLAN - Configure - untick WLAN Enable, click Apply
You can also press the wifi button on the router to enable/disable the Wifi in the same way. Note that if you have configured multiple SSIDs (as per the next section) then the wifi button on the router only enables/disables one of the SSIDs.
Adding extra SSIDs
The router only has one WiFi radio instance, but it is possible to configure several (up to 5 ?) SSIDs on that radio instance. This can be useful in a number of scenarios:
- One has a single device which can only do WEP authentication, and one doesn't want to allow WEP for all devices
- One wishes to provide guest access, but the guests shouldn't have access to one's LAN
- One wishes to easily switch a WiFi client between two (or more) configurations
